Management principles are some of the easiest topics to discuss, but some of the most challenging to put into practice. The best managers and leaders have an art in making problems so interesting and their solutions so constructive, that everyone wants to get to work and deal with them. This week I was excited to have one of tech’s best thinkers on management principles come on the show. Alex MacCaw, CEO of Clearbit, has recently put out a book titled The Manager’s Handbook - in it he takes his experience as one of the first employees at Twitter, first 20 at Stripe and now leading Clearbit - a company that has raised ~$20M - and translating it to distinct principles and tactics.
We discussed a host of concepts in this discussion: (1) how to manage yourself, (2) personal systems of action, (3) failure points, (4) ICs vs. managers, (5) mental and physical health, and (6) leading through COVID.
