Intro

Becoming a CTO is really hard.

There is nothing more valuable than a real experience, but in addition to the experience, you
can find a ton of useful resources over the internet to help you get started.

Therefore we've put together an amazing list of (recommended by other CTOs) resources
(blog posts, books, presentations, videos etc.). The reason why we're doing this is to help you
to become a better CTO/Technical Leader in your startup or company.

If you have any feedback on how we could make this list better regarding the content or
improving it in any other way - let me know!

Good luck on your path to building amazing teams and technology!

The Role of the CTO: Four Models for Success | Ebook

by Tom Berray, Raj Sampath (@tberray)

positions in the executive suite. But given the impact of technology on business organizations
over the last twenty years, it may be the most promising when considering ‘competitive
strategy’ in the future.
