Synthesise the Professional-to-Founder Transition Artefact
Draft the final, comprehensive Transition Strategy Artefact encompassing the risk audit, financial runway ledger, domain evaluation, and 90-day operational roadmap. Formalise the definitive go/no-go decision on resignations and full-time transition dates.
Completing this synthesis converts fragmented planning into a unified, actionable asset that locks in founder accountability. It delivers a clear operational playbook and a defensible decision framework that gives investors and co-founders total confidence in the founder's readiness.
The founder must produce a complete, polished 'Professional-to-Founder Transition' document ready for data-room inclusion. It must conclude with an explicit, signed founder commitment decision detailing exact resignation dates, runway figures, and 90-day milestones.
