As roles merge and engineers do more storytelling, this is my favorite talk to recommend: https://t.co/RJc4DnDB4K.

If High Output Management is the engineer’s field guide to leadership, this is the equivalent for speaking and getting a point across.

Big moves. Love the big energy. 🔥🔥

I'm back as CEO of @HubSpot today.

@dharmesh and I are completely re-founding the company. Its day 1. We're now the Customer Harness Company.

In the next few days, I'll post about why I'm coming back and what my plans are. LFG!

The job of a CEO is to remove bottlenecks in critical areas that aren’t performing as expected. A CEO’s role is like a doctor’s: when something critical isn’t working, your job is to diagnose the problem and fix it as fast as possible. When things are going well, you’re not needed.

@instinct did well today. too easy.

Tough day for that email workflow at Crunchbase.
