The title of my talk is 'Winning is a byproduct - how to build great products and a great career.' And I plan to discuss things that I've used in my own professional life to initially become an excellent individual contributor and now a good leader and executive and to build great teams, great companies and create great products, impacting millions of users as an outcome. The talk will be full of anecdotes from my own professional life as well as from stories from technology leaders in and around our industry. It will be very inspiring and scintillating and I hope to see you there.

How have they used some of these areas to build some of the biggest companies and products that all of us use every day?
