Backside Leader
Someone who is so far in last, they think they're in first. A play on car races, where the last guy appears to be in first but in actuality is doing an absolutely horrific job.
How's Ted doing these days?
He's so far in last he thinks he's in first. A true backside leader. He's delusional.

BackassForward
The inevitable and utterly confusing motion of launching a startup. Similar to two steps forward, one step back. With added layers of chaos and insanity pulling in multiple directions at once.
How did it go this week?
Oh it was another backassforward week for sure! Got next to nothing accomplished!!!

Squirrel Syndrome
The inexplicable desire to constantly chase after every new idea or opportunity, no matter how detrimental to your company, your team or your own sanity.
Bob just launched another product before the last one was even finished. He's completely out of control, definitely suffering from squirrel syndrome.
