    TALK TECH MOMENTS

    Elise: Make the decision to fail, and fail fast

    “The other advice I would say is, that is super helpful, and it was helpful to me, to my career, is helping my teams at the time, but you can be in the team, make a decision to fail, and fail fast, and being decisive about this.”

    Elise: Expect to fail, and give it a shot again

    “Not expecting to fail is a little too cocky. Like, ‘ ‘Yeah, I'm going to be alright. I'm going to have it right the first time.’ ’ But it's setting it into the culture that is acceptable, and that is that the recognition of the failure is almost as important as the failure itself, it's the key now, you can beat your head against the wall so many times, and not really realize it hurts you, you should feel it the first time and give it a second shot, but don't give it 10 shots

    Craig - The power of a good presentation:

    “Going back to the concept about anxiety - performance anxiety. That is a real thing for artists, but I feel like it's a real thing for entrepreneurs in general. The difference between securing a seed funding and not, truly is a good presentation.”

    Soula - Excellence is not achieved alone:

    “When you really want to excel on something, the first thing is you never do it alone. I didn't become the singer that I am on my own. Yes, I was born with the gift. I didn't cultivate the gift on my own, I had to take 1000s of hours of lessons.”

  • You find humility or it will find you, simple, short, yet so deep. This is one of the many lessons we will get from Andrew Kerr, CEO & Managing Partner of FortyAU, and the author of “The Humility Imperative”. Join Craig Cartwright as he welcomes Andrew, and they will talk about creativity in the technology process and why humility is imperative for leaders, only here, in the latest episode of Talk Tech To Me.

    QUOTES

    Andrew: “Technology is great, but you have to get humans to use it. Right. So that's really where I started my career in tech was with the government, trying to get people to pick up and use this new technology.”

    Andrew: “That's something that we really strive for, we think is a differentiator, because when you come to our company, and you say, Hey, I've got a technical problem. We don't really care what language it is, because we think we can help almost anyone that's out there.”

    Andrew: “When I say humility is imperative for leaders, I absolutely mean it, every leader needs to look at whatever your relative level of humility or arrogance is, you need to look at that and walk in the direction or maybe sometimes run in the direction of humility.”

    Andrew: “If you can't continue to learn and take in new information if you think you've got it all figured out, you're the one who's going to be disrupted.”

    QUOTES

    Kylie: “I think what makes techs creative is the fact that you have these really diverse talent pools that are contributing to it. And there's this amazing community in Tech where, you know, I've developed something, I want to share it with you, I want you to learn from what I learned, and take it make it your own.”

    Kylie: “I've noticed with the pandemic and everyone moving to this virtual setting, even my team has benefited from having a completely remote team. So no longer are we limited to sourcing talent from the New York City area. Instead, we have the entire United States, we have all UK and Europe.”

    Kylie: “I think groupthink can be sort of a dangerous thing to get into, especially in tech, because when you have teams of people working on a project and a data product together, the data product is the combination of all their minds together, right?”

    Kylie: “My like advice to any data scientist is, to determine your code of ethics and work for a company that matches those. Yeah, yeah. And do your work that aligns with that.”
