Episode notes
Own R&D And Develop Commercial Or Technical Depth
- Consider expanding into CPTO-style roles where product and engineering align under one leader to simplify R&D accountability.
- Become either commercially minded or technically deep to differentiate as a future CPO/CPTO.
Hire For Speed And Ownership
- Hire for speed, technical depth, and high ownership, and reward people who demonstrate those behaviors with more responsibility.
- Load high performers with work to test capacity and accelerate their impact and growth.
Embed Incubation Sellers With Product Teams
- Embed sellers into zero-to-one incubation teams so product, engineering, and go-to-market work as one startup.
