What if…
What if…
You find yourself in CTO boots overnight or get promoted into a Group CTO? Do you know how to structure your Office so you can effectively oversee all aspects of technology within your organisation? If you haven't so far, we recommend you go through the extensive guide explaining the Whats and Hows of building a CTO Office on different business scales.
Now, in start-ups in particular, CTOs are often CPTOs which means they operate in a highly dynamic environment with conflicting priorities. The biggest challenge in those circumstances is creating a flexible decision-making framework. This handy template can definitely help in such a situation.
Speaking of roles and donning several hats, we have a question for you:
Is there a Technical Leader on the Board of Directors of your company? (Click on your chosen answer, please, thanks!)
The reason we're asking is simple: our mission is to get a CTO in every Board. Only 15 years ago, that was virtually unheard of. Today, the situation is slightly different. With your help, we'll know how different.
Also today…
