Praise for this book

"Founder psychology is the missing link in entrepreneurship. While many books tell founders what to do, few show them how to be a great founder. Tao of Founders fills this gap with timeless insights to help entrepreneurs become their most purposeful, focused, authentic, and resilient selves."-Harley Finkelstein, President, Shopify

"One way of describing entrepreneurship is going from setback to setback with enthusiasm. Tao of Founders does a great job of explaining entrepreneurial resilience. It is hard to strike the balance between philosophical rigor and practical relevance but Guillaume does a great job of it.-Utkarsh Amitabh, Founder, Network Capital & Author of The Seductive Illusion of Hard Work

"Guillaume masterfully bridges ancient wisdom with modern entrepreneurship, drawing from his unique experiences to create a must-read for any founder-aspiring or experienced. I only wish I'd read this before building my own companies."-Jay Radia, Serial Founder & Partner, Bliss Growth
