On this episode of Stories Behind the Grind, listen to my conversation with Aaron Birkby, CEO of Startup Catalyst and founder or Peak Persona.
We do a deep dive into shiny object syndrome, how to deal with follow through, managing shiny object tendencies in your team like Facebook and Adobe does, why motivation is broken and what is the antidote and how to ensure there is a cultural alignment in your team.
I hope you get as much value out of this episode as I did.
