Description

Tune in for valuable insights into what it takes to succeed as a CTO with Drew Falkman, Principal at Moves the Needle, a product consulting company. Drew is also a former CTO, advisor to multiple startups, product consultant, and LinkedIn instructor whose CTO course has been watched by over a quarter million engineering leaders worldwide.

Drew emphasizes that the CTO role is, above all, a people job. As counterintuitive as it may be, Drew explains why skills like delegation, planning, and managing teams and other executives are just as important—if not more—than technical expertise. I especially appreciated his thoughts on deep work as a key driver of team productivity, highlighting that it's the CTO's job to enable it.
