If you’ve come here from Ben Horowitz’s blog, below is the research he cited evaluating founding vs. professional (hired) CEO performance in the Software as a Service (SaaS) Industry.   This research was conducted as part of a sponsored study project with Yujin Chung (LinkedIn, Twitter), a graduate of the Wharton School ’10, Professor David Wessels of the Finance department, and Frank Chen, a partner at Andreessen Horowitz.  Feel free to @ him with any questions.
