More Founders and CEO's should write.
Sam Altman’s letter on ten years of OpenAI is the perfect example (link below).
He's honed his writing skills for years via his blog/newsletter.
And it shows.
It is reflective. It is honest. It explains the mission in plain language.
“Our mission is to ensure that AGI benefits all of humanity.”
That one line alone will outlive most product announcements.
Founders who write create gravity around their company.
They build trust. They attract talent. They communicate direction in a way that slides and press releases never can.
You do not need to be Sam.
You just need to start.
Write about what you are building. Write about what you are learning. Write about what you believe.
If you want people to follow you, give them something to follow.
