We always talk about shipping code, but it’s so good to see someone talking about shipping culture too. This can make a company stand out and attract top talent. Thanks for this.
Really love your approach, Christos! Great to see you sharing these thoughts! I know this is something you deeply care about and work on. It’s also a good reminder that we should embrace our human side, not wait for the perfect topic or idea, and share both successes and failures as part of the learning journey.
You’re absolutely right—and to tell you the truth, your point reminded me of a story from a couple of years ago.
After an outstanding presentation at a well-known conference, I had the privilege of speaking with the presenters afterward. What really interested me wasn’t just the success story they shared, but what didn’t go as planned. Of course, it’s always great to highlight achievements, but in my view, it’s even more valuable—and often more insightful—to understand the challenges that came up and how they were addressed.
