I don’t believe the work of a CTO / CEO ends in a repository or a roadmap. A meaningful part of the role is sharing judgment: teaching, documenting, and creating context that helps people make better decisions.
From university classrooms to executive workshops, writing, and community spaces, the focus stays the same: make complex ideas feel clear, actionable, and human.
