Report from executive summit @ Construx

Last week I had the pleasure of speaking at Construx’s annual executive summit: an exclusive small conference of executives and C-levels from the software industry.

My talk on teams and stars was fun: lots of follow up questions, side conversations andï¿½ ocassional debates about star egos, military fire teams, and team compensation. Great crowd and I had a great time.

Slides from the talk: Teams and stars and the essay the talk is based on.
