Episode notes

As a synthecizing type, how do you make yourself operate at the best level? I'm a big believer in six pager style docks. If write stuff down, you can put your best foot forward when you're making an argument about something. You have to try to meet in the middle and adjust your own behavior. A leader that never speaks up is not going to be effective.

It’s important to know how to manage the synthesizers on your team. But first, let’s understand who synthesizers are and how they work.

Scott Williamson is the Chief Product Officer at GitLab.

In episode 88, Scott breaks down what it means to be a servant leader and how to manage synthesizers.

We also discuss the difference between KPI’s and OKR’s, and how leaders can use those two methods to provide clarity and focus for their team.

Tune in to learn about the signals Scott watches for to determine where blockers are and he even goes into detail about what a first-class hiring process looks like at Gitlab.
