Don’t tell people how to do things, tell them what to do and let them surprise you with the results.

Maybe something like

As a CEO, don’t tell people what to do, tell them why it matters and let them surprise you with the results.

As a VC, don’t tell people what to do (and please lord don’t tell them how you used to do it), ask them what they want to accomplish and surprise them with your support.
