The Strategy Nait Shared

Nait built his advisory practice at Andreessen Horowitz by asking better questions instead of giving advice. Here's his philosophy on building lifelong relationships that compound value over decades.

Lead With Value, Always

Learn why Nait never asks to be an advisor — he's always asked. Start providing value immediately without contracts or expectations. Real founders notice and reciprocate over the long term.

Questions Over Advice

Understand why the best advisors ask the right questions (90% of the relationship) instead of jumping in with prescriptive advice. Trust founders to know their business better than you ever will.

Think in Decades, Not Quarters

Get Nait's framework for making decisions based on 10-20 year beliefs, not short-term wins. This mindset shift changes everything from investments to relationships to career moves.

Building Advisory Relationships That Last Decades

This clip reveals how Nait learned to spot founders worth betting on before the product even exists, by recognizing a single, undeniable edge. It's a masterclass in conviction, talent selection, and why belief in people often precedes outcomes.
