Brad Feld, Techstars co-founder, venture capitalist, and bestselling author, released his latest book today, "Give First: The Power of Mentorship."
In this book, Feld presents the Give First philosophy that has become the guiding principle of his life, with stories from his decades of experience in the VC and startup world, laying out the cornerstones of what entrepreneurial mentorship should look like.
"Give First means that you're willing to put energy into a system without knowing what you're going to get back. You don't know when, from whom, over what time period, and what consideration, in what magnitude," Brad explains.
Brad also incorporates the Techstars' Mentor Manifesto, developed by Techstars Founder & CEO David Cohen, as his guiding framework to cover all aspects of mentorship.
Each chapter ties back to the concept of Give First and "how one can engage with the world in a very powerful, positive way that generates, in my mind, endless positive feedback loops that often generates surprises on the happy side in whatever you do," Brad shares.
