Episode description

In a tech-driven economy, you could argue that developers rule the world. If so, you could argue that Github rules developers, 50 million of whom are on the platform.

3 million organizations too, from NASA's Mars Rover team to enterprises to ... yeah ... me.

In this episode of TechFirst, we chat with Jason Warner, the CTO of GitHub, as I interview him for Traction Conference. Things we cover:

- how he started working for IBM because he could "lift heavy things"

- 10X growth (of course)

- how sometimes, the most important stuff is what you do NOT build

- prioritization

- where to start as a non-technical founder?

- finding coworkers, cofounders, and employees

- managing teams

- working remotely

- setting goals

- achieving organizational alignment

- Jason's biggest fear as a leader

- getting unfiltered feedback

- and SO. MUCH. MORE!
