It's a great feeling seeing so many people letting this idea of "high agency" impact their lives for the better.

Sounds similar to relentless resourcefulness, which we found was the most important quality in successful founders. Does this description sound like roughly the same thing? http://www.paulgraham.com/relres.html

@paulg, you say you are able to increase relres in people? How? -
Put them in situations where it is both required and allowed. Show them examples of other people who have it. Encourage them when they're uncertain.

I put your comment as point 7 in the thread Paul. Seem to be very two similar concepts. I think the following question captures it: “Who would you call to break you out of a 3rd world prison?” Best identifies resourceful/high agency people.

I'm especially curious if you see any differences between the two concepts, because if there are, they could be something I should add to what I look for in founders.

I think there’s a difference here. In business, you get rewarded pretty directly for being RR. But responsibility isn’t always rewarded, even though it’s always the right thing to do.
