Scenario

When your peer group becomes competitive networking

Our startup cohort was supposed to support each other but three companies have already gotten acquired and now every conversation feels like performance rather than genuine help and I miss what we used to have but I don't know if anyone else wants to admit we're all just networking now.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Differential success within a support community has poisoned authentic connection with status competition, leaving members isolated despite continued formal engagement.
