Venture Start-up & Financing SIG and Engineering Leadership SIG Presents: How Technical Founders Can Beat the Odds as Leaders July 19, 2012 6:30 PM - 9:00 PM Palo Alto, CA What does it take to go from being a red hot technologist who can deliver the goods when all around are struggling, to being the lead of a product development group, an engineering department, or the CEO of a fast growth startup? Why does it often take startup founders such as Ev Williams of Twitter, two, three or more attempts to hone their leadership skills? What are the decisions they have to take, what are the consequences of each one, and what does this mean for you?
