Episode 111: Solving the Skills Gap With Ahmed El - Sharkasy

CTO Confessions Brought to you by IT Labs

How would one define tech leadership? Is it all about innovation? About creating something that will serve humanity as a whole? Or maybe it’s about empowering people and nurturing them to become leaders on their own? It’s all of the above, and much more – but the one thing that drives our guest, Knowledge Officer’s founder, Ahmed El-Sharkasy, is to provide the platform for people who are looking to develop and improve their skills and become better at what they love doing! TC Gill sat down for a chat with Ahmed, to pick his brain on the important bits – his journey to becoming a tech leader, the way he operates, and what drives him – day in, day out. Key takeaways from the podcast are: • The highest level of competency is knowing what you don’t know • The importance of staying humble • Bridging the skills gap is all about bringing the concept of learning to life Our Guest: Ahmed El-Sharkasy LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/elsharkasy/ Website: https://www.knowledgeofficer.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/Ahmed_Sharkasy Intro and background music: Craig MacArthur - Power Shutoff (www.youtube.com/watch?v=x74iB_jtauw)
