How do tech leaders roll? What are they all about? What really is important for tech leaders and their approach? On the hows and whys, I got Jonathan Rigby, a Senior Engineering Leader, who sat down for a chat with me, and we dived deep into his personal journey in the world of tech – from his beginnings, through today, all the way to what’s in store for the future and what he’s learned so far, coupled with advice and insights from him – all worth their weight in gold
“What’s really important is the understanding of ‘Why’…so the engineers know what they have developed has impacted the customers“
–Jonathan Rigby–
Key takeaways from the podcast are:
- Building a successful technology company requires a strong leadership team that can work together effectively.
- Deep understanding of the company’s core product or service is important as it can help engineers make better decisions and ultimately drive business success
- Leaders must strike the right balance between management and technical skills in order to get the best out of their teams and empower them
TLDR: Straight to the point
