Tech leaders are people that reach for the stars – some literally, some do it by pushing the boundaries of what’s possible to ensure that the lives of humans become easier and simpler. And then, there are those that have done both, but have found the “earthly experience” with technology to be far more important. Noy Grisaru, R&D Group Manager at Optimove, belongs in the latter – and he sat down for a chat with me to talk about his journey in tech, the work he’s been doing for Optimove, and how he leads his teams.
“Surround yourself with people that want to you to succeed – as these are the people that will give you the best feedback.”
-Noy Grisaru-
- Why sometimes going with your gut feeling can be counterproductive;
- The path to learning something new starts by asking a question
- The importance of putting customers first
TLDR: Straight to the point
