About this audiobook
The CTO Playbook is a book for people who are working with developers in tech teams. Here you are going to get insights which can be useful when hiring, building products, choosing technology, leading and communicating.
Topics are divided into chapters about People, Work, Tech, Leadership and Communication.
The art of developing an application has been well described in various coding books that you can find gathering dust on almost all developers desks around the world. This is not that book. There may be some technical references, but astonishing few of them considering this is a CTO-book. And why’s that? This is a book for people who ended up in the situation of having to work with other people building applications — also known as “developers”. Fresh CTO’s, Product People or whoever is interested in leading dev teams can also benefit from reading this book. Spoiler alert: you will not learn to code here, nor do I have all the answers to everything. However I’ve put together my thoughts and experience based on working for various companies in various industries. Or, more importantly, working with different groups of people in different settings, getting an application together from scratch. So that’s what this book is about. Yep, there will be a few pointers and ideas. No, I’m not claiming to know it all. But you’ve read this far and now thinking if you want to continue to check out the rest, so why not? I’ve put together some topics where I think I could contribute. Happy reading!
