The Tech Executive Operating System: Creating an R&D Organization That Moves the Needle
Leaders of tech organizations have to regularly adapt their strategies in an ever-changing market. Creating a culture that understands and supports both the technical and the nontechnical is a refined skill that can be difficult to master even for a leader with years of experience. The Tech Executive Operating System helps you apply your personal expertise and build a thriving R&D organization that moves the needle.
Tech companies spend an average of 15% of their revenue on R&D. As they grow, they find the return on this large investment decreases at a fast pace. Executives and leaders of companies big and small are at a loss and seeking guidance. Author Ben-Yosef expertly walks you through the need to set goals, translate business objectives to R&D terms, and establish the organizational structures and processes to create the biggest impact. The Tech Executive Operating System is a rare book that provides useful yardsticks to measure the progress and contributions of managers, teams, and individuals in your organization.
Tech executives, first-time startup founders, managers, CEOs, and other non-technical founders of startups who want to better understand a significant part of their organization all have invaluable knowledge to gain from The Tech Executive Operating System. Ben-Yosef's thorough research and real-world examples enhance the lessons and make your goals clear. Engineering organizations can be vastly improved by this multi-faceted approach, and the future of tech is calling for it.
What You Will Learn
Create a toolkit for your employees to put in place a remarkable engineering team

A must-read for anybody approaching a senior Technology position or even for people who have been in the job for years. Aviv gives a lot of valuable (and actionable) insights - some of them may be obvious, but only after you read about it. I liked particularly his direct and no-nonsense style. Highly recommended.

Excellent read. Short & concise with a lot of practical advices. Recommended to any VP/Director/Head of Eng and CTOs.

An excellent field guide for tech executives, from senior managers to CTOs of scaled organisations. Very dense in content, practical and extensive in covering the broad spectrum of challenges and opportunities - often ignored - typical of being in the position of leading medium to large engineering organisations. Highly recommended.
