What I Believe
My operating principles.
Learning at speed has become a lost art.
Aligning on "Riskiest Assumption Testing" saves time and generates more money.
MVPs crave Feedback Loops, not $$.
Ship faster than perfect to learn, iterate, and release. Rinse, and repeat.
Systems-led business operations unlocks bandwidth and growth.
1. Documentation
Capture and compound institutional knowledge for years to come. The learnings in Year 1 help you win in Year 10.
2. Centralization
Make it easy for everyone to find the right info.
3. Templatization
Standardize operations to frictionlessly scale via SOPs & playbooks.
4. Automation
Open bandwidth for new problems while ensuring nothing gets missed.
Distributed teams win.
Outcomes > outputs
Being outcome-focused vs. output-centered builds healthier teams.
Async > synced.
Learning how to work without being in the same room or Zoom is a great forcing function more companies need to use.
What I Use
My favorite tool stacks, depending on the situation.
