Transitioning from an engineering leader to a CTO is about more than managing technology—it’s about evolving into a strategic business executive.

In this talk, I’ll share my journey and lessons learned in shifting from leading technology to shaping company vision, balancing innovation with business goals, and influencing organisational direction.

I’ll cover how you can bridge the gap between technology and business strategy, lead with influence, and embrace executive-level accountability.

Additionally, I’ll share my observations on how to get technical managers to think beyond engineering and become business leaders who drive the company’s success.
