Not because they are trying to be cheap or block someone's career but because they are being smart. Put it this way, not everyone wants to keep climbing the corporate ladder and as time goes on other interests take over and individuals might want to step back or sideways... but they posses knowledge and experience that could be vital for your companies growth. This is how Friedrich von Trott views hiring with his current business, one of the worlds most recognisable VCs. It's a challenge for sure attracting these talents but with the right approach and structure, worthwhile for everyone involved. This is the core of this episode, the HOW.
