There's more overlap than I would've suspected - a lot of the Director/VP types that I saw Google hire from the outside (as opposed to promote from within) were folks who had previously founded a company, sometimes up to 4 companies.
Agreed, but that's different again. Once you've done a job like be the CTO or CEO or an exec role at a high growth startup (like Segment) then getting into a role as an exec at a larger company.
