I’ve been reflecting on how to streamline my daily routine as a CTO without sacrificing creativity or team collaboration. Between managing tech stacks, mentoring engineers, and keeping up with industry trends, it’s easy to feel stretched thin.
For those of you in similar roles, what productivity strategies have made the biggest difference for you? Do you block out deep work sessions, delegate more aggressively, or rely on specific tools to stay organized? I’m especially curious about balancing hands-on work with strategic planning how do you prioritize when everything feels urgent?
Also, as someone who enjoys design, I wonder if there’s a way to integrate visual thinking (like mind maps or flowcharts) into productivity systems. Has anyone tried that? Would love to hear what’s worked or what hasn’t!
