The Great CEO Within
Matt Mochary, Alex MacCaw, and Misha Talavera
The 100-Year Firm At the outset, Newhall said he wanted our firm to last 100 years. This felt at the time like a terrible burden for us to bear, but now we are more than 30 years into it, and the burden doesn’t feel quite as heavy any more. We have a budget at the firm, from which we pay all our general partners the same amount. All over Silicon Valley, you hear about venture capital partners earning extravagant salaries. That does not happen at NEA. We don’t let that happen, because it misaligns our objectives from those of our investors.

A confrontation that doesn’t need to happen, shouldn’t happen. Suffering, discomfort, worry—these things take courage to endure. But wisdom and compassion obligate us not just to avoid them when unnecessary but to try to protect others from them too. That’s why heroes fight just as hard to prevent a conflict as they do inside the rare conflict they find themselves in.
