"What will we be doing if not understanding how the world works?”
Join us for the inaugural edition of the new Operator’s Playbook, a now-and-again series of conversations hosted by Retool where exceptional builders, technologists, and software leaders share stories and learnings from their journeys—and explore the most interesting operational insights they’ve gathered along the way.
This episode features Patrick McKenzie (known on the internet as @patio11), hosted by Jamie Cuffe (Head of New Products and Self Serve at Retool).
Listen in as the pair discuss the tangible impact of software, the value of ops, the future of programming, and much, much more.
