About Go-Go:

A Go-Go organization is a company that has a successful product or service, rapidly growing sales, and strong cash flow. The company is not only surviving, it's flourishing. Key customers are raving about the products or services and ordering more. Even the investors are starting to get excited. With this success, everyone forgets about the trials and tribulations of Infancy. Continued success quickly transforms into confidence. If not careful, confidence can turn into arrogance.

About Founder's Trap:

The Founder's Trap occurs when a company is unable to relieve itself from its dependency on the Founders or family. It is trapped by the capabilities and bottleneck that is its Founder and/or family. This can occur because the organization is unable to develop the abilities needed to replace the unique skills of the Founder. This Trap can also occur because the Founder is unable to delegate effectively and decentralize control. What made them successful can now become the organizations downfall.
