šŸ¦øā€ā™‚ļø Unlocking CTO Mode: When Technical Leaders Become Innovation Heroes

In this intellectually stimulating conversation, Matt Watson and Ron Timoshenko (CIO of Rimbull Health) unpack the multifaceted nature of the CTO role and explore the critical moments when technical leaders must activate their "beast mode" to drive innovation. Through candid discussion about leadership styles, technical debt, and the balance between creativity and process, discover how effective CTOs navigate between wartime innovation and peacetime stability.


This thought-provoking dialogue examines the evolving nature of technical leadership and the delicate balance between creative innovation and operational discipline. Through personal anecdotes and industry examples, Matt and Ron explore how CTOs must strategically activate their "Power Rangers helmet" moments—times when bureaucracy gets cut, decisions accelerate, and technical leaders leverage their unique position to solve critical challenges that move organizations forward.
