Tldr - Effective leaders do x, y and z. Ok, how do you know they do those things? We ask people. How do you know they're effective leaders? We ask (presumably the same) people. What's the sample? Startups that people have selected to be in our accelerator (presumably based on, among other things, whether the leaders were deemed to be effective by our people). So many issues with the analysis that its hard to tease out anything of value. This from a company that hires a gazillion phds. Sigh.
