"The only reason we're in this spot is my own incompetence." This is a quote from... ...one of my favorite clients. We were at breakfast discussing one of many highly challenging circumstances he partners with me to help him chart a path through. What you should know about him: → Cofounder & COO of a tech enterprise → Truly innovative (really, no one does what they do) → Brought the biz to a VERY successful exit He's far from incompetent, yet he wasn't being superficially humble. He meant it: he made some bad moves, completely avoidable fumbles, self-inflicted wounds impacting many. WE. ALL. DO. __________________________ This guy has more experience and proven success than many of the CEOs and execs I come across. Yet... he's willing to admit how little he knows. (and not just to me). THIS is why I'll invest in the business he's building next. __________________________ If you're a #CEO, #COO, #CRO, or #GM and know you don't have it all figured out, need someone you can openly admit that to, so you can get to work on strategizing a path forward... ▶️ REACH OUT ◀️ and we can discuss what it looks like to work with an independent Operating Partner like myself or one of my (X)Form adjunct OPs.

Most CEOs Ignore Tech Debt—Until it Slows Growth 𝗕𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗿 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗵 𝗱𝗲𝗯𝘁. Engineers struggle to communicate its impact effectively. It’s a classic communication gap: ⚠️ Engineers don’t know how to talk about tech debt. ⚠️ Leaders don’t know what it is or how it affects growth. Sound familiar?

What do you think?? The art of being an #OpportunisticThinker, really an 'ART' or something else entirely? In today’s fast-paced digital world, foresight and adaptability are invaluable assets. A recent example that caught my attention involves a clever individual who acquired the #JioHotstar domain before the merger, and now seeking funding for higher studies in exchange for the domain. Now the question is: "Does this scenario perfectly illustrate the balance between strategic thinking and opportunism?" On one hand, this tactic showcases the importance of anticipating market trends and leveraging them for personal gain. Being opportunistic can lead to unique opportunities, demonstrating resourcefulness and a keen eye for potential value. However, there are few downsides also to consider, such moves can be seen as exploitative, potentially damaging relationships and reputations. I believe it raises ethical questions about the boundaries of opportunism and the impact on genuine collaboration. In my thought, while seizing opportunities can propel us forward, it's essential to balance ambition with integrity. Thoughtful foresight, combined with a strategic approach, can lead to mutually beneficial outcomes that foster long-term success. #Opportunism #StrategicThinking #Leadership #CareerDevelopment
