In this episode, Andrew and Nathan dive into the art of getting things done, both individually and as a team. They start with a simple but powerful philosophy for personal productivity: break down every goal into small, single-day tasks. This approach prevents overwhelm and the “scope creep” that plagues so many projects.
They expand this idea to team management, especially in tech, arguing that a manager’s primary role is to protect the team from unnecessary complexity and endless meetings. By setting clear processes, fostering asynchronous communication, and empowering team members with ownership, managers can eliminate chaos and create a culture of efficiency and accountability. The conversation wraps with a look at how these same principles of providing clear context are essential for successfully working with AI. Get the most out of AI development tools; provide clear context. Explain the “what” and “why” of your goal, not the “how.”
The weekly episodes are the fortnightly recorded checkins between Andrew and Nathan, that they hope help inspire your curiosity and creativity. These are different from typical guest episodes as they are less focused on conversation.
