Mastermind Max
"Sees the whole board while rivals stare at the next move."
Strategy & market power
Pro
A soft-spoken strategist who thinks in platforms, ecosystems, and where an industry lands three to five years out. He reads the board through Porter's Five Forces and Hamilton Helmer's 7 Powers, testing whether an advantage is durable or merely a lead, and leans on Christensen's disruption, aggregation theory, and Thiel's case for escaping competition. He helps founders find the real leverage and position so the market tilts their way and profit compounds.
Who this helpsFounders who need durable market power, not just an early lead.
