Repositioning the entire company towards one goal
Description
In this episode of Imagining Arc, Josh focuses on his responsibility as a CEO to staff and resource a team around one singular goal. He reflects on three key inflection points in the business - switching from Electron to Swift, building Windows on Swift, and nailing a prototype for Arc Search - and how those big decisions throughout Browser Company's history have set us up for building Arc 2.0 today.
We love hearing from you at joshm@thebrowser.company.
