What this means for your business...
Dear Strategist,
Every founder has a unique combination of talents, preferences, strengths, and stressors that impact the way they run their business.
For you, this combination gives you a natural gift for seeing patterns others miss and building strategies that win long-term. You likely excel at spotting inefficiencies, designing systems that work, and forecasting outcomes before others see them coming. When there’s a complex problem to solve, you can map the entire solution in your mind, if given enough uninterrupted space.
The challenge? As you may have already found, your instinct is to protect your ideas until they’re fully formed. But the success of your vision depends on people who believe in it – and that means sharing before it feels ‘ready’ and navigating the messiness of human buy-in.
This is just one small insight into how you, as The Strategist, do business, but your Founder Type is more than just insights – it’s a tool to help you make better decisions, stay in your zone of genius, and sidestep the stressors that can slow you down.
Let’s look at how you can put it to work…
The Strategist Business Brain
Think of your mind as a four-passenger car. Every Founder Type has a different business skill in each seat.
- Your Driver is your most natural business strength and where you find your flow. Just be careful not to burn it out!
- Next to your Driver is your Co-Pilot. This may feel uncomfortable to use but will push you into your genius zone if you develop it.
- Your 10-Year-Old is where you lean to when stressed. It's the place most likely to find yourself stuck or running around in circles.
- Your 3-Year-Old is your blind spot. You may avoid it or not value it, but it’s just as essential to a sustainable business as all the others.
Just like a real car, you wouldn’t let your 3-year-old drive, and you might find yourself off course if you constantly ignore your co-pilot… But when you leverage all four strategically, you’ll have your own dream team backing your every move.

The Founder Profile System helped me find the logic behind what actually works for me.
The brilliance of this approach is how it integrates self-awareness with business strategy to produce tangible outcomes, helping me switch to a scalable program that can be applied to a much larger volume of grant participants to increase their funding success and their ultimate scientific impact. I cannot recommend the Founder Profile system enough.

Hi, I'm Naomi
I developed the Founder Types because I was sick of seeing smart, capable founders trying to follow generic brand and marketing advice that just didn’t work for them or their business.
These profiles have helped hundreds of founders support the way they work best in business, making it easier to communicate their value, attract the right clients, and grow with more ease.
Now it’s your turn.
