Early on, the CEO is “the best person at the company” at some things. Often sales (passion + knowledge) or product vision. But by 100 people, if the CEO is “better than everyone” at 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨, the CEO has hired poorly, and the company is suffering. Tough transition.
Everyday Pauses: Resisting the impulse to speak. Keep your lips together. Listen to understand. Shifting to curiosity. Humility learns. Ego knows. Ask yourself, “What might they understand that I don’t?” Challenge your own wisdom.
Are you an envelope entrepreneur or a letter entrepreneur? Someone who's about the container, the business on the outside, or someone who's more focused on the letter, the product inside? You can be both, but I think most are definitely one or...

What #AI reveals about performance measurement: proxies get optimized. If you measure speed, you may lose quality. If you measure output, you may miss impact. In the ML era, KPI design is a leadership discipline. https://t.co/FfVafJZaUk @mitsmr #MWC26 https://t.co/NqyEiNAj50
One of the best tools for employee engagement: second chances. Part of the reason some employees check out is that they’ve been tossed aside after making a mistake. No one has ever let them live it down, and that mistake...
The most valuable skills for 2026 are not mysterious. Delivery leadership, data literacy, EPR fluency, governance, and communication keep reappearing. These skills survive restructures, tech shifts and policy cycles. Career Navigator 2026 outlines the full skills picture.

Agile was built for a different era. Here are 7 urgent reasons leaders must revisit agile practices if they want real advantages from AI in 2026. #Agile #AI #DigitalTrailblazers https://t.co/RZY9U0X8ws
ROI is a good way to prioritize tactical tasks, or 'Pebbles.' ROI is not a good way to prioritize tiny tasks (‘Sand’) nor the most important large things (‘Rocks’). Here’s why: https://t.co/gy7ac3Aqmy
Most people don’t ramble because they lack ideas. They ramble because they lack structure. Before you build slides, write paragraphs or even rehearse. Ask yourself: What pattern of organization best serves my message? Structure is not restrictive, It is liberating. When you choose...
Automation alone is not the answer. Institutions that replace people instead of empowering them will struggle to meet rising customer expectations. https://t.co/3KhyMMpnPe
The future of work will look something like what Boris is describing. Anthropic is hiring engineers because people who know what they’re doing still have to tell the agents what to do, review their work, and integrate that work into...

There’s a powerful leadership lesson in watching Trae Turner. When you’re in a tough season, people can either give you what you deserve — criticism, frustration, distance — or they can give you what you need — encouragement, belief, support. The best...
AI is accelerating the divide between leaders who learn continuously and those who fall behind. Standing still is not a https://t.co/fRpFGuoNlH the full episode: https://t.co/niO7fXOQML https://t.co/vMRrQNi6cA
Eventually, as a result of the context limitations of AI agents, we’ll start to change and improve our work practices to aid in their success. One of the most interesting issues with AI agents is because of their inherently limited...
AI won’t replace people, but people who use AI will replace those who don’t. 👥 At the #CiscoAISummit, leaders discussed how 70% of code is now AI-generated, but human judgment remains "priceless." The CIO's job is now as much about culture...
When you say “not now” instead of “no”… …you are avoiding making a decision. That’s good, if waiting means you can make a better decision (e.g. more data, more options to pick from). That’s bad, if you’re just non-committal. Cross things off the list.
Build relationships that make risk-taking more likely. Choose people who kick you in the pants over those who affirm your excuses. Trust allies who believe in your potential, fuel your courage, and challenge you to get off your butt.

Shoutout to Coach nateoats for recommending ‘The Obstacle Is The Way’ to his players. Means a lot to see these ideas being used where resilience, discipline, and teamwork matter most. Hope it helps them face adversity the right way.
Tomasz has always impressed me with his work ethic, his unique personality, and the kind of organization that he built at Nethermind. He brought a perspective on Ethereum, what blockchains fundamentally are, and how they fit into the future of...
My top 5 takeaways from my chat with Gille Berteaux, Livestorm's CEO (nearly $20M ARR, 3,500 customers): 1. Expanding too broadly can kill product-market fit: After COVID, they added meetings and sales demos. Suddenly they looked like a smaller version of...
Many speakers think their audience will naturally follow their thoughts. So they ramble, and lose their point. Fix: Before speaking, answer these questions: 1. What is my central idea? 2. What three points support it? 3. What examples will clarify each point?4. How will...
I'm confident we can achieve a market structure win-win that advances the President's crypto agenda while addressing the concerns of the banks. Our focus throughout will be to advocate for what's best for crypto users. We’re all in - we were...
Growth is the dream of every operator (or at least your potential acquirer). But if you’re not careful, it can be the siren song of death. Hiring faster. Spending more. Scaling too soon. All in the name of “growth.” The reality is — growth...

Running a business never ends. I learned to shut it down with 7 rules: brain dump each night, auto-reply after hours, block time for bills, set reply rules, schedule fun, rank tasks by day week quarter, guard sleep food and workouts. Your...

What’s the most valuable skill in the AI era? ⛔ It’s not coding. ⛔ It’s not prompt tricks. ⛔ It’s not “keeping up with the latest model.” 💪 It’s judgment. Every time a new AI capability drops, the debate centers...
So Sanofi's board strikes again. Paul Hudson gets the old Paris boot 6 years after taking on the task of remaking the pipeline. It hasn't gone well. Next: Belen Garijo. She has a few years to get ready for the...
Give engineers subpar tools, what could possibly go wrong? a) competitors out-ship AWS (eg Vercel, where Claude Code is used by so many and they are on 🔥) b) frustrated engineers interview elsewhere and take offers at places where Claude Code or...

I was at a founders + CTOs event for 10-500 person startups. Founders and CTOs at these companies burn some of the most tokens and increasingly ship a bunch of code to production (when they did ~zero 6 months ago)

When @benfrancis was first building @gymshark , he was encouraged to expand its product range to reach a broader audience. More appeal equals more growth, right? They found the opposite. Growth isn’t always about adding more. Sometimes it’s about becoming lethal...
