Every business today has some technology as part of its strategy.
Inevitably, it is becoming harder for many CEOs to effectively lead
their R&D efforts at the same time that their investment in
tech keeps growing. Even startup founders can find themselves
flustered when trying to understand whether a particular issue is
genuinely impossible, getting the team to provide reliable
estimates, and having their top tech leaders speak in plain words
as opposed to jargon. This book helps them bridge the culture gap
between the C-suite and R&D, cover frequent tech-related
decisions and issues, and provide a way to unlock tech as an
offensive weapon and a strategic differentiator. To create an
environment where technology is not merely an execution mechanism
but acts as a fulcrum for strategic opportunities, one must put a
particular leadership team in place and equip them with digital
literacy. Based on the author's experience and discussions with
hundreds of executives worldwide, he short-circuits common failure
patterns and enables non-technical senior leaders to act with more
certainty and clarity regarding their tech efforts. Startups and
tech efforts initiated without enough understanding of the
technical aspects often have to be scrapped and started from
scratch within 18 months. This can make-or-break certain endeavors,
and as the author has helped his clients avoid these problems, the
book will help the readers establish a sturdy foundation to work
from. The book covers clear guidelines for founders, executives,
and senior leaders that are not tech-savvy. These include
establishing a tech organization, making the first key hires,
assessing the relevance and risk involved in different options, and
creating a healthy connection as opposed to a tech silo. On top of
that, it will include lessons and case studies that stem from my
experience in the “Startup Nation,” such as how to inject
chutzpah into daily discussions and create an organization with
habitual innovation.
