Join The CTO Playbook Slack Community to connect with other CTOs! "Compliance doesn’t make you good—so how do you really know if your tech team is any good at all?" In this episode, Adam sits down with Andy Graham, former CTO with 30 years of M&A and enterprise tech leadership, and Dane Eldridge, serial entrepreneur and CEO of Stackup. Together, they’ve built a deceptively simple tool that’s flipping the script on how tech leaders assess their teams—and uncover hidden risks before they explode.
