The case studies show how founders of fast-growth

companies must continually balance and adjust as their

companies grow and change. These entrepreneurs learn
to manage and leverage the tensions between idealism
and pragmatism, control and delegation, and confidence
and humility. They exhibit an extreme responsiveness to
market insights and a willingness to try — and discard,
if necessary — new business models. Yet, at the same time,
they are uncompromising and persistent in the pursuit of
their vision and values.
