Description

William A. Adams, Former Technical Advisor to the CTO at Microsoft
William reflects on working with Steve Jobs and how he became Microsoft's first technical advisor to the CTO. We tackle whether the compensation packages of $400,000 or more, which are now common in the tech industry, are sustainable and why some of the largest tech companies are doomed to be forgotten. Finally, William reveals the one trait required to succeed in the tech industry. (Hint: It's not a language or technology.)
