In this episode of The Career Report, I break down why your job title matters far less than you think when it comes to getting hired. Too many professionals get stuck chasing the “right” title instead of focusing on what actually moves the needle in interviews and executive searches.We talk about how hiring managers really evaluate candidates, what recruiters look for beyond titles, and how relying on a title alone can quietly hold your career back. If you've ever wondered why strong experience isn't translating into interviews or offers, this episode will help you rethink how you position yourself and your value.This is especially relevant for directors, VPs, and senior professionals navigating a competitive market where perception, clarity, and impact matter more than labels.

Fredrik chats to Dylan Beattie about Rockstar, esoteric programming languages (Perl in latin, anyone?), and what might happen after the AI bubble. AI will ruin jokes, they can't do things just right. But some things hiding under the label are actually useful as well. Have we been in any similarly strange bubbles before, and what might be left that's useful after it? Also evolution, revolution, and strange Scrabble facts. Recorded during Øredev 2025. The episode is sponsored by Ellipsis - let us edit your podcast and make it sound just as good as Kodsnack!

Most sales orgs brag about being data-driven, then bury SDRs under forty-seven KPIs, endless meetings, overlapping territories, hope-based quotas, and tool sprawl. That's not accountability. It's anxiety by design.In this episode, Brandon Bornancin breaks down the five GTM design flaws quietly crushing performance and shows you what elite VPs do instead. You'll learn how to cut to five controllable KPIs, replace meeting bloat with async updates, assign single-account ownership, rebuild quotas from real capacity, and collapse your stack so the next action lives in the CRM.Brandon lays out the templates, rules of engagement, and compensation tweaks that turn chaos into throughput... without burning out your best reps.

En este episodio profundizamos en la optimización de tus sistemas Docker. El objetivo de hoy: implementar nuevas y mejores prácticas para que tus contenedores sean más estables y eficientes. Si buscas cómo sacar el máximo partido a tu infraestructura autoalojada, esta es tu guía.Uno de los problemas más comunes al trabajar con Docker Compose es que los servicios dependientes (como una aplicación web o un servidor de correo) intentan conectarse a la base de datos antes de que esta haya terminado de arrancar, provocando errores.Te muestro mi solución PRO para esto: utilizamos la combinación de la directiva depends_on con la condición service_healthy.Esta configuración asegura que servicios críticos como Gitea (mi servicio de alojamiento de repositorios Git) y Stalwart (mi servidor de correo) solo se inician cuando su respectiva base de datos PostgreSQL ha pasado su chequeo de salud y está lista para aceptar conexiones. Esto garantiza una secuencia de inicio robusta y sin fallos, una mejora fundamental en la gestión de tus datos y sistemas.Gitea : Vemos cómo configurar el healthcheck para la base de datos PostgreSQL usando pg_isready y cómo el servicio Gitea espera por esta condición. También optimizamos el tráfico interno del runner de Gitea para que use la red interna de Docker (http://gitea:3000), reduciendo la carga de Traefik y mejorando la seguridad.Stalwart : En el caso de mi cliente de correo, he migrado la base de datos de RocketDB a PostgreSQL. La razón es sencilla: PostgreSQL es más transparente y me permite integrar sin esfuerzo mi contenedor personalizado (atareao/postgres-backup:latest) para hacer copias de seguridad eficientes y automatizadas.En este episodio, también te presento una nueva herramienta que me ha encantado: Dockpeek.Dockpeek es un panel de control autoalojado y muy ligero para Docker, perfecto para la gestión de contenedores en múltiples hosts. Si te gustan las herramientas que reemplazan funcionalidades complejas con soluciones sencillas, Dockpeek te va a encantar.Características destacadas: Acceso web con un clic, mapeo automático de puertos, registros de contenedores en vivo, integración con Traefik y chequeo de actualizaciones de imágenes.Te comparto el compose.yml que utilizo para instalar Dockpeek junto a Traefik.Quantum (Filebrowser): He ajustado los permisos y la configuración del servicio que utilizo para compartir archivos.

Fredrik, Kristoffer, och Tobias snackar om Tobias snart avslutade tid på Ubisoft och vad som händer därefter. Tobias diskuterar bland annat vad han lärt sig under fyra år på en stor studio. Vad har han lärt sig, vad är han mest nöjd med att ha gjort? Och varför är Macen en besvärlig plattform att stödja? Tobias diskuterar också skillnaden på ett stort spelföretag som Ubisoft och ett litet som Larian, där han snart börjar jobba. Det är lätt att vara negativ kring jättarna, men de fyller också en del viktiga syften. Dessutom några sidospår kring att hålla reda på kläder, och om nackdelen med trästäder.

What does executive presence actually mean, and how do you develop it when you're stuck in the middle? Today's guest, Jennifer Jensen, author of "Developing Authentic Leaders", breaks down the specific mindset shifts that separate directors from VPs—and why most middle managers stay focused on the wrong things. You'll discover why strategic thinking isn't a natural talent but a learnable skill, the mistakes that keep talented people invisible, and how to influence without formal authority. Jennifer also shares the truth about advancing when your organization won't invest in you, and practical steps you can take starting today. Whether you're wondering why some people rise effortlessly or feeling stuck despite doing great work, this episode gives you a clear roadmap for building executive presence and getting promoted.

Fredrik snackar med Andreas Ekeroot (mannen från avsnitt 603!) om abstraktioner, Ash, och annat. Vi börjar med att diskutera abstraktioner lite mer allmänt, från filsystem via abstraktioner i språket Go till Fredriks favoritabstraktion (eller i alla fall den första han kom att tänka på). Sedan berättar Andreas om ramverket Ash och dess abstraktioner, och hur han med glädje använt det för att generera en hel massa back-office och annat utifrån sin domänmodell. Fredrik undrar om inlärningskurvor, tankesätt, och om det inte känns som att man ska riskera att bli inlåst i ett ramverk av den typen. Som avslutning snackar vi lite om att ta bort abstraktioner, och känner oss peppade kring Gleam. Ett stort tack till Cloudnet som sponsrar vår VPS! Har du kommentarer, frågor eller tips?

In this episode of Mostly Growth, CJ Gustafson and Kyle Poyar dig into what it means to be useful rather than just right at work, exploring how communication, empathy, and impact matter more than technical precision as careers mature. They share candid lessons from their own paths—CJ's focus on making others look good to earn promotions and Kyle's evolution into a domain expert through public writing—before unpacking what separates good from great VPs of Sales with insights from Pavilion founder Sam Jacobs. The conversation then shifts to OpenAI's “too big to fail” claims, the economic ripple effects of AI infrastructure spending, and how finance leaders can stay grounded in reality. Rounding out the episode, the hosts preview their latest research—CJ's “Agentic Finance” report on AI in the finance stack and Kyle's 2025 SaaS Benchmarks—and close with lighthearted banter about founder age stats, home maintenance mishaps, and the price of professional Christmas lights—LINKS:Mostly Metrics: https://www.mostlymetrics.comCJ on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cj-gustafson-13140948/Growth Unhinged: https://www.growthunhinged.com/Kyle on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kyle-poyar/Slacker Stuff: https://www.slackerstuff.com/Ben on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/slackerstuff/https://sarahcharlton.substack.com/p/from-being-right-to-being-usefulhttps://www.highalpha.com/saas-benchmarkshttps://www.mostlymetrics.com/p/presenting-the-state-of-the-agentic-financial-stackhttps://www.mostlymetrics.com/p/finance-in-2030https://worksinprogress.co/issue/the-algorithm-will-see-you-now/https://www.theinformation.com/briefings/openai-ceo-sam-altman-forecasts-20-billion-annualized-revenue-yearhttps://www.growthunhinged.com/p/your-pricing-is-broken—RELATED EPISODES:When the marketing math doesn't math | with Emily Kramerhttps://youtu.be/sSuoV_YSrlwGetting fired 4 times made me a founder | Sam Jacobs of Pavilionhttps://youtu.be/8X-JVOF-1A0How To Win at Early Stage Sales With the Guy Who Helped Take Snyk From $0 to $100M+https://youtu.be/VKrZCte8fyM996 Culture, Exploding AI Bills & SaaS Chaoshttps://youtu.be/qhrxDL0gsRo—TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 Preview and Intro00:02:18 Sponsors – Pulley and Metronome00:05:09 Flight Cancellation and Airport Chaos00:07:58 Being Right vs. Being Useful00:11:17 Getting Promoted Early by Making Others Look Good00:15:25 What Separates a Good VP of Sales from a Great One00:18:24 Sales Leaders as Capital Allocators00:21:14 The Organizational Tax of Sales Support00:22:33 Is OpenAI Too Big to Fail?00:25:31 AI Investments, Alternatives, and Market Impact00:27:50 Bailouts and Economic Reality00:28:20 Agentic Finance and the AI-Driven Finance Stack00:31:43 SaaS Benchmarks Report 2025 Overview00:33:59 Growth Rates by ARR Tier and Scale00:35:40 AI's Impact on Engineering Teams00:37:45 Age and Startup Success00:39:42 Building Durable Businesses Over Time00:41:25 Something You Tried This Week – HVAC Cleaning00:43:19 Outsourcing Holiday Cheer – Professional Light Installation00:47:08 Credits – Mostly Growth Closing Remarks—SPONSORS:Pulley is the cap table management platform built for CFOs and finance leaders who need reliable, audit-ready data and intuitive workflows, without the hidden fees or unreliable support.

After 1,500+ conversations with CDOs and VPs of data , guest Malcolm Hawker noticed a disturbing pattern: a "limiting mindset" that causes data leaders to fail. He argues that too many leaders blame external factors such as "culture" , "data literacy", or a lack of support rather than taking accountability for delivering value.In this conversation, Malcolm breaks down how this mindset is reinforced by the analyst and consultant community and why it leads to a "value fatigue" where no one can prove their own ROI. He offers a clear path forward, starting with a simple 3-question framework for any new CDO and explains why "culture" is actually an outcome of delivering value, not a prerequisite for it. We also discuss his new book, "The Data Hero Playbook," tackle the "AI Ready" myth , explaining why conflating it with "BI Ready" is holding companies back and why your data is likely "good enough" to start right now.
Keye helps private equity investors accelerate deal evaluation through AI-powered quantitative analysis. In a recent episode of Category Visionaries, I sat down with Rohan Parikh, Co-Founder and CEO of Keye, to explore how his team bridges the gap between AI capabilities and the 100% accuracy requirements of financial due diligence—enabling PE firms to say no to deals earlier and focus resources on the right opportunities. Topics Discussed: Why ChatGPT-style search and summarization tools fail in PE workflows—summaries don't drive investment decisions The technical challenge of achieving 100% deterministic accuracy while maintaining AI contextualization capabilities How market timing created unexpected GTM momentum: PE operating partners watching portfolio companies transform with AI became receptive to internal tooling Persona-specific cold email strategies that demonstrate workflow understanding rather than biographical personalization Design partner economics in conservative industries: accepting
The old PM career playbook doesn't work in the AI era. In this episode of The Skip, we lay out a new career framework for product managers, and it's a lot more “choose your door” than “climb the ladder.” If you're wondering whether to stay in big tech, jump to an AI startup, double down as a builder, or rethink your whole path, this one's for you. We talk about why your hard-won product intuition is quietly becoming obsolete, why some ex-VPs are happily taking senior IC roles, and how to prepare for what's coming next.Key topics• Why your product intuition is outdated — and how to “go back to school” without quitting your job• Why company quality now matters more than your title, comp band, or level• What elite AI companies are actually looking for in PMs• The builder vs factory mindset: are you obsessed with the product, or with the machine that ships it?• How to choose between Big Tech, hot AI startups, healthy growth companies, or founding• A three-part reality check on constraints: compensation, location, and pace• The truth about 9–9–6 and AI startups: when extreme pace is worth it, and when it's just branding• Why “coasting” in big tech is mostly a myth• Remote vs hub tradeoffs: what you gain and lose by moving to SF or NYC• Why this is Part 1 — and what we'll go deeper on next in the PM Career Framework for AI seriesWhere to find Nikhyl:• Twitter/X• LinkedInWhere to find Carly:• LinkedIn• She Leads Podcast• Twitter/XJoin The Skip:• Skip Coach• Skip CommunityFind The Skip:• Website• Substack• YouTube• Spotify• Apple PodcastsTimestamps(00:53) Why the PM career framework needs to be rewritten for AI(03:35) Why ex-VPs are happily taking senior IC roles(06:07) Why your current product intuition is becoming obsolete(11:46) Why AI-first companies only want hands-on PMs(14:40) How to choose between Big Tech, AI startups, growth companies, or founding(18:06) How to actually upgrade your product intuition on the job(25:13) What's really happening with PM compensation in 2025(33:46) Why true AI startups are rarely remote-first(42:42) What 9–9–6 culture at AI companies actually looks like(50:52) The myth of work–life balance in growth environments(55:40) The builder vs factory mindset(60:29) Are you obsessed with the product or the factory that ships it?(67:11) The key takeaway for PMs making career moves in 2025Don't forget to subscribe to The Skip to hear me coach you through timely career lessons.

You raised Series B. Now what? If you're a tech founder in a Series B company, you're scaling fast, refining product, and chasing metrics. But while your team builds the tech, who's building the trust? In this solo episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the blind spot I see across nearly every high-growth company: invisible leadership teams. You've got funding, product-market fit, and momentum—but if your leaders can't communicate externally with clarity, credibility, and confidence, you've got a serious growth liability. I'm not talking about polishing LinkedIn bios or posting more. I'm talking about turning your operators into trusted voices that support your brand, build stakeholder confidence, and drive real business outcomes. Let's talk about what Series B companies are getting wrong, and how to fix it before your competitors outshine you. What you'll learn: Why most Series B companies are ignoring a critical growth driver The external influence blind spot that's holding your leadership team back Real talk on why product alone won't get you to Series C What perception has to do with fundraising, talent, and enterprise deals Why silent CTOs and invisible VPs are costing you credibility How to equip your team to lead out loud, not just operate in the background Your Next Steps: Access the white paper: External Influence: The Currency Every Leader Must Carry. https://externalinfluence.us Follow Shayna on LinkedIn: http:/linkedin.com/in/shaynarattler Visit our website: https://shaynadavisconsulting.com
It's budget season—and chances are, your process is more fragmented than you think.In this episode of the Multifamily Collective, I share why most multifamily budget models fail before they even launch—and what to do about it. Whether you're using Excel, Yardi, RealPage, or tools like Visibly, the platform isn't the problem.The problem is the process.Here's what's really happening behind closed doors:VPs are building their own forecasts, with no alignmentSite teams are left out of critical decision-makingC-suite assumptions are disconnected from the reality on the groundBudgets are finalized in isolation, then handed down as gospelAnd the result? Missed numbers. Misalignment. And a whole lot of finger-pointing.What you need is a collaborative budgeting process—one that includes your site teams, regional leaders, and executive council from day one. Because when everyone has a voice, the forecasts become real. The buy-in becomes stronger. And the outcomes become achievable.This isn't just about hitting numbers. It's about building trust, driving performance, and showing up with clarity across every level of your organization.If this resonates, hit like, subscribe, and drop a comment below.

Dive into Episode #157 of the Psych Health and Safety USA Podcast, featuring host Dr. I. David Daniels, PhD, CSD, VPS, and special guest, Ms. Camay McClure-Dunn, a career legal professional, speaker, and consultant. Without question, the psychosocial hazard that we know the most about is workplace bullying. Despite what we know about the harm that workplace bullying can cause, the behaviour is still pervasive in many organizations across the United States, and targets of this behavior will often need support to process their experience and exposure. Ms. Camay works with the targets of workplace bullying to help them not only survive and recover from their exposure but also to help reframe the experience in ways that not only help them survive but also help them thrive in their long-term recovery efforts, including recognizing the “power of their exposure.”
In This Episode In this episode of Systems Simplified, host Adi Klevit talks with global sales mentor Zach Selch about the systems and mindsets that drive scalable international sales. Zach shares how he helps VPs of sales move from reactive selling to strategic, process-driven growth. He explains that most companies have strong systems for their domestic market but lack structure in their international sales efforts. By introducing data-driven visibility, defining clear buyer journeys, and building repeatable processes, Zach helps companies multiply their sales — sometimes by 1,000% or more. He also emphasizes the power of consistent follow-up, explaining how it builds trust, credibility, and client confidence. From using CRMs effectively to designing creative follow-up tactics like sending global candy-filled advent calendars, Zach shows how small systematic touches can yield huge results. Finally, he shares what makes a great global VP of sales: resilience, cultural awareness, flexibility, and the discipline to follow systems.

In this podcast episode, host Michelle Frechette chats with developer Mark Westguard about the new Image Roulette plugin, which randomizes images on WordPress sites while keeping alt text and captions for accessibility. The plugin was inspired by Michelle's need to display randomized Speed Networking conversation cards.They demonstrate how it works, discuss potential eCommerce uses, and share experiences using AI tools like Claude to speed up development. The episode also highlights collaboration, creativity, and fun within the WordPress community.Top Takeaways:Image Roulette Plugin: Michelle's accessibility challenge inspired Mark to create a plugin that randomizes images while preserving alt text and captions. Within hours, he developed a fully functional prototype that later became a public WordPress plugin.Accessibility at the Core: The plugin automatically uses each image's existing media library fields (alt text, title, caption), ensuring accessibility is built-in rather than an afterthought — aligning with WordPress's broader emphasis on inclusive design.Simplicity and Versatility: Image Roulette works via both a Gutenberg block and a shortcode, making it compatible with different site builders. It's ideal not only for random prompts but also for creative and commercial applications, such as eCommerce product showcases.Mentioned In The Show:MooImage RouletteInsta WPClaudeCursorAngieWP World

Here's a problem that'll tie you in knots: You've got a killer software solution that saves companies massive money on employee benefits. You know exactly who needs it. Fortune 1000 companies with self-insured health plans. But you can't get a single meeting with the people who matter. That's the situation Peter Kleinman from Provo, Utah, found himself in. As the sales and marketing guy for his dad's startup, he was tasked with landing enterprise clients while juggling full-time classes at BYU. He had LinkedIn, Sales Navigator, and a burning desire to make it work. He also had virtually no chance of success using his current approach. If you're nodding your head right now, keep reading. Because Peter's problem is your problem if you're trying to sell into enterprise accounts without the business acumen, social proof, or strategy to break through. The 100-Foot Wall Problem Let me be brutally honest: Fortune 1000 CHROs and C-suite executives have built a wall around themselves that's about 100 feet high. Their entire job is keeping people like you from wasting their time. And if you're young, inexperienced, or new to enterprise sales? That wall might as well be 1,000 feet high. Peter was doing everything the sales books tell you to do. He was going straight to the top. He was messaging decision makers on LinkedIn. He was targeting the right titles. He was also getting absolutely nowhere. Here's why: It has nothing to do with age and everything to do with business acumen. You can't speak the language of enterprise buyers if you've never lived in their world. You don't understand their buying process, their risk aversion, or the organizational politics that determine whether your deal lives or dies. Most critically, you're trying to sell something they don't even know they need. And you have zero social proof to back up your claims. That's not a recipe for success. That's a recipe for frustration, burnout, and a pipeline full of nothing. The Bottom-Up, Top-Down Strategy If you can't get to the top, start at the bottom. I'm not talking about giving up on enterprise accounts. I'm talking about running a multi-threading strategy that builds your business acumen while creating pathways into those massive organizations. Here's how it works: Find the amplifiers. These are the people in the trenches who actually deal with the problem your solution solves every single day. They're not directors or VPs. They're managers, analysts, and coordinators who feel the pain but lack the authority to fix it. These people are 100 times easier to talk to than C-suite executives. They'll take your call. They'll teach you. They'll tell you exactly what's broken in their organization and how decisions actually get made. Compress your experience. When you talk to these amplifiers, you're not selling. You're learning. You're asking questions like, "Help me understand how you make these decisions," and "What problems are you running into?" Every conversation compresses years of experience into hours. You learn the language. You understand the pain points. You gather insights that become ammunition for conversations with decision makers. Surface the insights upward. Now when you finally get in front of that CHRO or VP of Benefits, you're not some kid with a PowerPoint. You're someone who understands their organization better than they do. You can tell them stories about what their own people are experiencing and how you can close the gap. That's how you get meetings. That's how you build credibility. That's how you win deals when you have no business acumen and no social proof. The Insurance Broker Shortcut Here's another path Peter needed to explore: Insurance brokers. If you can't talk to the self-insured companies directly, talk to the people who advise them. Insurance brokers work with these organizations every day. They understand the buying process. They know the pain points.
