Jozef Antony Consulting

✔️ I’ve built software development teams from scratch for 10+ companies worldwide
✔️ 3 of my clients’ companies were later acquired by 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗮, 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗼𝗳𝘁, and 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼𝘁𝗮𝘀𝗸.
✔️ 25+ years of experience in the software development space

Here is a sample breakdown of two projects we have handled:

1:

The client is in the life science industry. We built a software development team from scratch. The software solution helped the company to run and document clinical trials. We acted as an outsourcing partner.

The company was later acquired by Medidata. And later, Medidata was acquired by Dassault Systeme. The team continued to operate and grow to 15-17 developers, testers, DevOps engineers. This partnership lasted for 6 years.

2:

Built a development outsourced team to work on one of the first file-sharing and collaboration platforms in 2005 (like Dropbox or Google Drive). The solution was focused on enterprise customers. They used it for file sharing and backup. It was scaled to 170.000 paying customers. The company was later sold to Autotask and later to Datto.

As an outsourcing partner, we scaled the team to 15-20 developers and testers. Responsible for the application development, testing, hiring developers, and managing day-to-day operations of the development team. We constantly communicate with partners in Denmark and the US. This partnership is still ongoing since its inception in 2005.

👉 4 Main Reasons Why Companies Can’t Build Market-Leading Products:

(𝗜) 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁-𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗲𝗱: Discovering that you cannot deliver fast enough. Communication friction, misunderstandings, and challenges between engineering, product, and business slow everything down.

(𝗜𝗜) 𝗜𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗦𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲: Encountering invisible barriers that hinder your business growth, whether they are technological limitations, inefficient processes, or gaps in team expertise.

(𝗜𝗜𝗜) 𝗢𝗯𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗲 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘆: Revamping your technology or product features to stay relevant may require significant resources and time. Focusing on business value helps you navigate these issues easier and faster.

(𝗜𝗩) 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁 𝗙𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗿 𝗗𝗼𝘄𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲: The alarming possibility that product failures impact not just your customers' operations but also your hard-earned reputation.

Addressing these challenges requires more than just hard work and determination. 

As a Fractional CTO and Product Growth Partner - I help companies to:

✅ Focus on company objectives and align your teams with your big goals - building the wrong thing fast doesn’t bring any value. Focusing on business value constantly is the priority.

✅ Accelerate delivery without compromising quality - the common myth is that this cannot be accomplished; the opposite is true.

✅ Honest communication, even if (especially if) the news is not good. The dynamic business environment needs constant adjustment. Keeping the communication flow open ensures the project focuses on the business value.

✅ Establish a practical timeline through effective project management - mismanagement is a primary cause of software project failures. Keeping all parties in sync, especially key stakeholders, is crucial.

If you want to be rich, don't work for money

There are just 24 hours in a day. If you plan to work for money, there is a limit to how much work you can do. And hence, there is a limit to how much money you can earn. To make a lot of money for the rich lifestyle you want, you have to follow a different principle. This different principle is what is explained in the book.

Marketing Strategist | 7+ years working remotely | Remote Work Advocate

I started working remotely in 2018 - wayyy before it became cool. 

So, when I heard all these big companies rush to embrace remote work in 2020, I knew it was going to end in disaster. 



Remote work is not about trying to operate the way a business normally would from an office. Remote work is a different system of operation entirely 

You make people own outcomes and have a clear communication style. Async works but your team has to be trained for it. 

Someone who has worked in-office all their life will find remote work challenging, at least for the first few months. Some people love a co-working space, some prefer a cafe, others carve out an home office. And in some cases, we go through different phases. 



My first remote work office was the dining room of my parent's house. Soon enough, I switched to a co-working space. But in the last 5 years, I have had a home office. 

Remote work is not about working from home
It is freedom to work from wherever works for each person 

Remote work is not about being lazy
It is the discipline to self-manage and be outcome-driven 



Remote work breaks down wealth inequality barriers 
Remote work reduces company costs on commercial property 

Remote work makes parents more present with their kids 
Remote work reduces commute, reduces emissions, and adds more life to each day

I didn't choose to be a remote work advocate. Remote work chose me. And I am glad it did.

If you are struggling with productivity with your remote team, tell me about it and I'll be happy to help 


P.S. I am on LinkedIn to network. Not to sell. Feel free to reach out

People are getting jobs way easier now 

The job market has shifted, both for remote and non-remote 



This is the fact 

Don't let anyone doom and gloom you. The situation today is much better than earlier in the year 

I have seen people who were fired land new jobs 

Almost everyone in my network who was visibly unemployed several months back have now gotten something 

I have not heard about multiple offers yet, but people are getting jobs 

The unemployment complaints I am seeing are way less now than several months ago 

Things are getting better 



Now, I am not saying it is all lillies and roses for everyone. For example, I still hope to land a good workplace for myself 

But everywhere I look, the optimism is rising 

It makes me happy to see so many people who got laid off get another job that is as good as where they left 

And a lot of people are not announcing it. Many are just keeping quiet and fading away from LinkedIn 

My point is the job market feels much better now than earlier in the year, and yours will find you soon 



Have some faith. Don't disqualify yourself 

The job opportunity you will get will be much better than you expect (in some way) 

We have passed the doom and gloom.
