Thanks for the article, @jjude. You did mention that you try to understand the marketing and sales side of things. How much time do you think you spend on them and why do you do it?
Welcome to the club.
I take a walk with members of my team...
This, indeed, does a magic. Leadership is about many 1x1 f2f conversations.
A very interesting story. I completely agree with the following statement:
A CTO should always strive to have an understanding of different tech stacks, paradigms etc. When it comes to real-world projects, a CTO should carefully evaluate every possible detail and choose the right stack.
IMO, imposing their preferred stack onto every project is the most dangerous thing a CTO can do.
