A mental model according to Wikipedia is \u201can explanation of someone\u2019s thought process about how something works in the real world".\xa0\xa0 It is a representation of the surrounding world, the relationships between its various parts, and a person\u2019s intuitive perception about their own acts and their consequences.\u201d Mental models help solve problems and simplify complex situations. An extensive list of mental models gives one an edge in competing in the startup world.\xa0 Mental models provide additional tools for understanding startup challenges such as raising funding, developing products, managing the team, and closing customers. Many mental models help frame the problem in a way that makes the answer clear. The startup world brings many mental models for founders and investors to consider. The more mental models you have, the stronger your management skills. Mental models are not included in formal education programs. You find them in the writings of experienced founders and investors. These founders and investors developed mental models after solving the same problem over and again.
