Episode notes

Communicating the unmeasurable value you bring involves earning credibility through adding direct value, being authentic, and applying rigor to your work. Additionally, focusing on indirect value, rather than solely on getting promoted, can significantly enhance your broader impact. Indirect value is often overlooked due to the challenge of measuring it directly, but it can be a significant force multiplier on outcomes, even if it's difficult to prove through direct measurement.

What is up PartnerUp?!

If you try to build a product, platform, community, or ecosystem like an engineer or architect, you will fail. Every time.

If you view it as a garden, you just might succeed.

Alex Komoroske is one of the most fascinating thinkers in business, and his wildly popular illustrated and emoji-based decks on how to build a platform ecosystem and how large companies are like slime molds have created breakthroughs for startups large and small.

We talk about whether all this abstract stuff is just a load of bull, why it has to come from the bottom up, and how to put it to use. We also dive into the problem of measurement, and why sometimes the most important stuff is what can’t be measured - and how to convince your boss of this!
