@yapwithhala: Founder accountability is Kevin O'Leary's first filter when someone pitches after a failed business. He asks what happened, then listens for ownership—not a list of market, pricing, or competition excuses. In his view, the founder and CEO held responsibility, and refusing to say that makes the next investment impossible. The real conflict is not whether failure happened; it is whether the founder can name it as their own and enter the next pitch without hiding behind circumstances. Would you trust a founder more after a blunt admission or a detailed explanation of outside causes? Watch the full episode on YouTube.
