BONUS: Zach Goldberg shares how to build high-performing engineering teams and master the startup CTO role In this BONUS episode, we dive deep into the world of startup leadership with Zach Goldberg, author of The Startup CTO's Handbook. We explore the critical transition from engineering to leadership, the art of balancing technical debt with startup urgency, and the communication skills that separate great CTOs from the rest. The Genesis of The Startup CTO's Handbook "My original training in software engineering was not enough for being a leader. All the people and leadership skills, I had to learn on my own." Zach's journey to writing The Startup CTO's Handbook began with a stark realization about the gap between technical training and leadership reality. Despite his classical software engineering background, he discovered that the people and leadership skills required for CTO success had to be self-taught. The book emerged from a growing Google Doc of topics and frameworks addressing the leadership and management challenges that CTOs consistently face - from hiring and performance management to making strategic decisions under pressure. Today, we can either buy the digital/print book on Amazon, or read the book on GitHub.  In this segment, we also refer to the book The Great CEO Within. Learning to Truly Learn: The Max Mintz Story "Max only cared about my ability to learn - to get curious about something hard. He wanted to help me deal with complexity." Zach opens his book with a deeply personal story about his mentor, Max Mintz, who fundamentally changed his approach to learning during what he calls "the most impactful single coffee" of his life. Over 1.5 years of conversations, Max taught him that true learning isn't about accumulating facts, but about developing curiosity for hard problems and building the capacity to handle complexity. This lesson forms the foundation of effective CTO leadership - the ability to continuously learn and adapt in an ever-changing technical landscape. The Three Critical CTO Mistakes "As a CTO, the most important 3 things: people, people, people. Do the people have the right energy, the right passion? Assemble the right team." Zach identifies consistent patterns in startup CTO failures across his experience. The first and most critical mistake is undervaluing people decisions - failing to prioritize team energy, passion, and the right assembly of talent. The second category involves investment mistakes, particularly the challenge of balancing short-term survival needs with long-term technical goals. In startups, the ROI timespan is exceptionally short, requiring optimization for immediate objectives rather than hypothetical scale. The third mistake is treating technology as religion rather than tools, losing sight of what the business actually needs. Optimizing for Velocity and Developer Experience "You are optimizing for velocity! What are you doing to help developers get their work done? Look at developer experience as a metric." Successful startup CTOs understand that velocity - the time from idea to valuable market delivery - is paramount. This requires a fundamental shift in thinking about technology decisions, focusing on features that deliver real customer value rather than technical elegance. Zach emphasizes measuring developer experience as a key metric, recognizing that anything that helps developers work more effectively directly impacts the company's ability to survive and thrive in competitive markets. The Professional Skill Tree Concept "It's like a character progression in an RPG. When we learn one type of skills, we don't learn other types of skills. We make investments every day and we have a choice on where we learn." Drawing from gaming metaphors, Zach explains how technical professionals often reach Level 100 in engineering skills while remaining Level 1 in management. The skill tree concept highlights that every learning investment is a choice - time spent developing one skill area means less time available for others. For engineers transitioning to leadership, the key is recognizing opportunities to serve as tech leads, where they can begin setting culture and quality standards while still leveraging their technical expertise. Balancing Kaizen with Startup Urgency "Pick the high-impact debt, and pay that down. This is not always easy, especially because we also need to pick what debt we don't invest on." The tension between continuous improvement and startup speed requires sophisticated thinking about technical debt. Using financial analogies, Zach explains that technical debt has both principal and interest components. The key is identifying which debt carries the highest interest rates and can be paid down most quickly, while consciously choosing which debt to carry forward. This approach maintains the healthy tension between quality and speed that defines successful startup engineering. The Power of Audience Empathy "The single hardest skill, especially for very tech leaders is that of 'audience empathy.' When you explain ideas to people, you usually assume a lot - but they might not." According to Zach, the most undervalued communication habit for startup tech leaders is developing audience empathy. Technical leaders often suffer from the curse of knowledge, assuming their audience shares their context and understanding. The solution requires deliberately considering what the audience already knows before crafting any communication, whether it's explaining technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders or providing clear direction to team members. In this segment we refer to the concept of “the curse of knowledge”, a cognitive bias that occurs when a person who has specialized knowledge assumes that others share in that knowledge. About Zach Goldberg Zach Goldberg is a seasoned technical entrepreneur, executive coach, and author of The Startup CTO's Handbook. With a founder's mentality and a passion for systems thinking, Zach helps engineering leaders build high-performing teams. He also founded Advance The World, a nonprofit inspiring youth in STEM through immersive experiences. You can link with Zach Goldberg on LinkedIn, and visit Zach's website at CTOHB.com.

We take the conversation we started last episode regarding vocational training of a technical workforce in CRM a little further. Bill provides an excellent perspective on the current role of the academic world in the CRM profession. How the current projections of future student populations provides both a bleak potential for growing numbers of new archaeologists and the promise for job security. This is an interesting perspective considering the current uncertainty looming in our discipline. Finally, is a rethinking of the original Airlie House an answer to what ails us?

Send us a textRachel Tomajczyk pulls back the curtain on elite mountain running preparation in this compelling pre-Sunapee Scramble conversation. With multiple World Championship appearances under her belt, Rachel's approach to race preparation reveals the scientific precision that separates good mountain runners from the truly elite.The fascinating physiological discussion around altitude adaptation offers breakthrough insights for athletes at all levels. Rachel articulates how different limiting factors—aerobic capacity versus leg strength—should dictate training approaches. Her nuanced understanding explains why simply training high and racing low isn't always the optimal strategy. Those struggling with power generation might actually benefit from specific lower-elevation training blocks to develop explosive strength, while athletes limited by breathing efficiency gain more from altitude adaptations.Technical trail mastery emerges as another critical element, with Rachel detailing her methodical approach to conquering unfamiliar terrain. The stark contrast between Western technical trails (sharp rocks, cacti) and East Coast challenges (roots, moss, steep grassy slopes) requires specific preparation strategies. Her practice of arriving days early to mentally map technical sections demonstrates the psychological preparation that complements physical training. This level of detail in course preparation reveals why Rachel has consistently performed at the highest levels across varying terrain types throughout her career. The conversation provides a rare glimpse into the mindset of an athlete performing at the sport's pinnacle. When discussing what another Team USA qualification would mean, Rachel's respect for the depth of American mountain running talent reminds us just how competitive this sport has become.

This episode marks the latest in our ongoing monthly PM Talks series, where I sit down with Patrick Rhone to explore a theme through candid conversation, lived experience, and a touch of real-time reflection.This time, we didn't just talk about adaptability—we lived it. Technical issues and illness meant we had to reschedule and re-record, but in doing so, we ended up with an even deeper and more resonant conversation. Adaptability isn't just a concept—it's a practice, and in this episode, we show what that looks like in real life.Six Discussion PointsWhy slowing down is often the best way to adapt effectivelyHow "known unknowns" create conditions that demand adaptabilityPatrick's perspective on college uncertainty and shifting expectationsThe tension between efficiency and agency in modern lifeHow small pauses create the space for better decisionsWhy resilience isn't the same as adaptability—and why both matterThree Connection PointsResilience (Resistance)The Known UnknownsTV is BrokenSometimes we adapt by choice. Other times, we're forced into it. Either way, the quality of our adaptation depends on how well we pause, observe, and decide. This conversation offers a reminder that in a fast-moving world, the real power lies in how we slow down and shift course with intention.

In this episode of the Knowledge Base Ninjas podcast, we speak with Rina Groobman Cassouto, CEO of ContentMaster. Rina shares insights from her 30-year journey in technical writing. Starting with a background in English Literature, Rina transitioned into tech writing through a single course and went on to lead documentation teams and train writers globally. She emphasizes that technical writing today is more than just editing. It's about structuring information effectively. Technical writers who understand information architecture can turn disorganized content into valuable, user-friendly documentation. According to Rina, strong writing and a willingness to learn are more crucial than domain-specific knowledge, and hiring a technical writer should reflect that. She also adds about the role of AI in tech writing, viewing it as a helpful assistant rather than a replacement. Writers who bring strategic thinking and structural clarity to content creation will remain indispensable, even in an AI-driven future. Catch the full conversation on the Knowledge Base Ninjas podcast for valuable takeaways and pro tips. Stay tuned for expert insights and actionable strategies you don't want to miss out on.

The market is at a critical point, observes portfolio manager Lance Roberts.If the S&P can hold above the 200 daily moving average over the coming week, then the correction will be officially over and stocks should have an open field to run back up to the previous highs (and possibly higher).If not, then the odds that the recent run have been a bear market rally -- one that will fizzle out and send stocks lower again -- become much more likely.Lance and I discuss the probabilities, as well as bonds, AI, this week's promising data releases, as well as Lance's firm's latest trades in today's Weekly Recap.For everything that mattered to markets this week, watch this video.WORRIED ABOUT THE MARKET?

Turning your hobby blog into a thriving business doesn't have to feel overwhelming. This eye-opening conversation with Amy Reinecke and Jennifer Draper of Spark Media Concepts reveals the strategic framework bloggers need to build sustainable, profitable platforms.The foundation begins with clarity. Many content creators struggle with the "multi-passionate" dilemma, resisting the focus that actually attracts their ideal audience. Amy and Jennifer explain why niching down isn't a life sentence, but rather the path to authority that allows future pivots. They share practical wisdom from supporting bloggers since 2017, emphasizing that your website remains the only digital real estate you truly own.Technical overwhelm stops many bloggers before they start. The guests break down the essential elements every blog needs: a self-hosted WordPress site, appropriate plugins, and an email marketing service that captures your audience from day one. The good news? Starting doesn't require expensive custom designs - quality themes provide everything needed for professional presentation.Content creation becomes the next hurdle. The conversation explores how burnout happens when creators attempt to produce endless original content across multiple platforms. The solution? Strategic content planning based on keyword research paired with intentional repurposing. One well-crafted blog post can generate approximately twenty pieces of content when approached systematically.Perhaps most valuable is their perspective on embracing AI as an assistant rather than replacement. Initially resistant themselves, Amy and Jennifer now leverage these tools to streamline processes, prevent burnout, and focus creative energy where it matters most. Their practical approach to technology, content planning, and audience building provides the roadmap bloggers need to transform information overload into sustainable success.Ready to move from overwhelmed to thriving? This episode delivers the clarity and confidence to build your blog with purpose.Support the show

One of the biggest downsides of consumer AI?It doesn't have up-to-date access to your enterprise data. Even as frontier labs work tirelessly to connect and integrate AI chatbots with your data, we're a far way off from that happening. Unless you're using a platform like IBM's watsonx. And if you are using watsonx, your go-to enterprise AI platform just got a TON more powerful. IBM just unveiled updates across its watson ecosystem at its Think 2025 conference.
