If you are a CTO or VPE at a scaling tech startup, you are probably feeling the strain: 1. You need to balance building the product and developing the organization 2. You need to maintain a high performance culture while scaling the team 3. You need to provide a strategic direction while firefighting 4. You need to grow into new responsibilities while staying true to your values As someone with a technical background, you feel the growing pains of becoming a people leader. You may be perplexed by the plethora of advice and "best practices" out there. You are probably feeling stressed, uncertain, and sometimes confused.
