Scott Donaldson, Stanley Siegel and Gary Donaldson interview many of the world's most influential chief technology officers in CTOs at Work, offering a brand-new companion volume to the highly acclaimed elite At Work books including Coders at Work, CIOS at Work and Venture Capitalists at Work. As the words “at work” suggest, the authors focus on how their interviewees tackle the day-to-day work of the CTO while revealing much more: how they got there, how they manage and allocate projects, and how they interact with business units and ensure that their companies take advantage of technologies, teamwork, and software development practices to respond to organizational needs and improve employee productivity. Surveying a variety of unique corporations, CTOs at Work offers insights into the present and future of CTOs in organizations around the world.

That would have been useful, and perhaps what the meat of the book ...

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 27 April 2018

Whilst the interview format is interesting, I found the book did little or nothing to extract the common elements from the experience of these CTOs into lessons or insights. That would have been useful, and perhaps what the meat of the book should have been.

Many of the folks interviewed were also first CTOs in some fairly lofty companies, so this is a less hands-on-CTO relevant work (something that doesn't seem to exist)

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on 31 August 2015

Verified Purchase

Interview format showcases a range of personalities and tasks performed by CTOs. As someone in a start-up, I was interested to compare and contrast the experience of a founder/CTO to that of a CTO in an established company. The first thought being, what does a CTO do and am I doing it? The second thought was to establish an end-point for what the CTO role could be. This book turned those questions around by just letting the CTOs talk. The insights are in the words of the CTOs, and importantly, in-between their words. The role of CTO is wide-ranging, depending on the industry, size and stage of the company, and personality.

This is not a book of pre-digested facts and job-descriptions, but is a narrative that requires getting to know each of the subjects. That said, some people are more interesting than others. Many of the subjects seemed to have similar backgrounds, and perhaps, a little more variety would have been nice. I would recommend this to someone keen on the subject. It is an interesting approach and well thought-out.
