First off, that's just a cool picture I like. I didn't even notice any cleavage until you mentioned it - sorry - wasn't meant to offend. I wouldn't be offended if a guy had buff arms in a picture or his shirt opened a little & you could see his abs - the picture was meant to represent me (someone my CTO would be spending a lot of time with) and I simply liked it - thought it looked cool w/ the Instagram lens I chose to use. Again, apologies if it offended you. |

That said, if I saw a startup founder posing in any sort of check-out-my-body way in order to convey the culture of the company, I would find it entirely unprofessional. Well unless it was an exercise company I suppose.
A little unsolicited advice from a technical founder on his fourth startup? What I look for in co-founders first and foremost is their ability to execute, not culture. In a small startup, everyone shapes culture. I'm looking for someone who is respectable enough to bring into a VC, looks like they're on top of their game, is fearless, is absolutely passionate about their idea, can convince other people that their idea is great and has some sense of what they're doing.
Good luck with your search!
