TL;DR The article focuses on the ability to “Think and act like a CEO” as a developer.
In one of the recommendations it says: “As a developer, when you are developing features or working on any project, think about how this relates to the success metrics of the company and communicate this clearly.”
I wanted to hear from experienced developers, how much of this is true. I get the feeling that in some environments, thinking about how a metric relates to the success of the company may not be something some developers think or can actually focus on.
