A Start-Up's Definitive Guide to Failure cover

Seven out of ten start-ups fail. The reasons for failure are well-known. Yet founders often fail to approach the topic of failure with the seriousness and commitment it deserves. This book aims to change that and offers a new approach for founders to “drive their start-up off a cliff.” Structured as a “how-to guide to failure,” it highlights the most common mistakes founders make, explains where they come from, and illustrates them with real-life examples. The goal of the book is to help founders make the “right” mistakes in order to fail more efficiently (and perhaps help them avoid making these mistakes in the first place). The book includes an interview with German “start-up legend” Prof. Günter Faltin.
