34. Adaptability in the ever changing technology industry. Lessons from a CEO.

Technology is changing at an unprecedented pace. And it’s only accelerating.

From enterprise to web, to mobile, to blockchain, to VR and AR, to AI.

Staying up to date is hard. 

If you are buying technology, or customized development, knowing what partner to choose is a difficult and impactful decision.

If you are selling software development and related services, staying up to date with the latest technologies and understanding when to leverage each of them, is not only difficult, but vital to serve your customers the right way.

So I sat down with Jordan Gurrieri, CEO at BlueLabel, a digital transformation agency, to learn more about his path as a leader, his vision, and the lessons he learned along the way, as he grew his company from a mobile app dev shop, to a digital product agency, and now to a transformational and innovation partner.

Adaptability, relearning, and adopting new skills with sound results, are key to success in this industry. Jordan and I talked about to get these right, what it means to be a CEO at a software company, the keys to success, how to find and attract talent, the hard choices, the loneliness at the top and how to deal with it, and many more topics.

I strongly recommend listening to this episode. There are golden nuggets of advice everywhere. And Jordan is not only a very experienced leader with a very clear message to convey on each of the topics we talked about, but also an amazing and fun person to be around with.

Enjoy!
