Yea, it sort of is nowadays.

Be yourself, be engaging, and try not to use crutch words and/or phrases regularly. I speak in front of groups a fair amount and I always have fun with it. That’s my advice to anyone who does public speaking. And the other thing, know your material cold. So much better received that way

Any good recommended books on how to build a scalable product and team? I'm looking for recommendations for two areas: 1) in general laying the groundwork in a startup to have the tools and especially processes in place to scale, and 2) tactical focus on building a SaaS project. I've been promoted into a management role from Dev roots, so need to learn more PM processes to be an effective manager in day job, plus would like to start building my own SaaS solution.
