#011 Lessons for my younger self

  • Summary

  • What advice would I give to my younger self today?

    Today’s rapidly evolving economy involves a deep interweaving of the worlds of technology, science, and business although the connections are not always obvious. I experienced this as an engineer who moved into the world of business relatively early in my career. I learned that the role of science and technology is as strategic enablers of business rather than drivers of business. Some of the decisions that I have had to grapple with include should I remain a specialist or become a generalist, learning that a process of innovation is much more valuable than a single smart product, a focus on the overall framework or architecture rather than any single language and that innovation is about being agile to find where meaning exists for clients. In addition to this was learning when to pivot or persevere, how to raise funding and manage stakeholders and figuring out how to build teams in order to get to the future first.
