First Cheque (Cheryl Mack & Maxine Minter, Day One) — Eric on financial gravity, the spiritual holding company, and 'Big Cojones'

Day One® / First Cheque hosts Cheryl Mack and Maxine Minter release a full-hour Eric interview walking through what founders and early investors can do at the earliest stage to prevent mission drift — including the Novo Nordisk spiritual-holding-company structure, the Purdue Pharma million-dollar story that destroyed a startup, and Eric's 'Big Cojones' board-meeting moment where he expected to be fired for refusing to abandon his unconventional methods.

“Eric explains why many widely taught governance best practices are actually shareholder-value destroying, and why the earliest stage of a company is the easiest time to build in protections against this drift.” — First Cheque (Day One) episode description
