It’s always true, but particularly in these challenging times, you have to find a way to fall in love with your life’s work; otherwise, your energy will wane, your voice will falter, and there will be nothing to prove but the fact that you’re taking up valuable space. And you certainly won’t be helping to develop and perpetuate the Extreme Leadership approach that our world so desperately needs right now.

Just saw this tweet fly by: Unfortunately, this CTO happens to be the CTO of a restaurant chain which was probably the reason that this was tweeted. But the point is pretty simple. As a CTO, you need to always remember that you are a bit on stage and people notice what you do even when you don’t realize it. It’s important to bring a bit of caution to things as simple as going to the bathroom.

If you want your customers to love you (and you should, because if they’re just “satisfied&# you’ve lost the game), then take a lesson from your own romantic adventures. For example, think back to the first date or two with that person you were really crazy about. I’ll wait. If you’re a guy, it went something like this: You really paid attention, didn’t you?

Your job as an Extreme Leader is to help create a culture so vibrant and healthy that when people wake up in the morning and think about the imminent workday, they won’t be overcome with a sense of dread and won’t doubt whether or not they can survive the day. Instead, they should be filled with hope and the knowledge that they can bring themselves fully into their work and do something cool, something significant, something meaningful.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

Multi-tenant architecture allows software vendors to realize tremendous efficiencies by maintaining a single application stack instead of separate database instances while meeting data privacy needs. When you use a data warehouse to power your multi-tenant analytics, the proper approach is vital. Multi-tenant analytics is NOT the primary use case with traditional data warehouses, causing data security challenges.

Risk is a natural part of the human experience, and we accept it in many areas of our lives without realizing it. But a lot of people who call themselves leaders want things to be easy and painless.

In this last post in the series on restructuring IT, we'll take a look at some things we can do to get going on a restructure. The place to start is to establish a reason for restructure that everybody inside and outside the organization can understand. Tech is inherently optimistic, and we have short memories. As a result, we don't have very good self awareness.

A leader lives under the microscope. I’m not saying it’s fair or just, but people watch everything the leader does. Everything. They watch the body language and facial expressions (Terry Starbucker wrote a great post about this) ; they listen to the tone of voice; they observe the decisions the leader makes; they listen to the leader’s questions and how they’re asked.
