No company has meant more to me professionally than MongoDB. I spent more than 11 years as CEO, and even after stepping down last year, I never really left. Serving on the board kept me close to our people, our customers and the business, and only strengthened my conviction in MongoDB’s future.

The people I have seen grow the fastest continually ask for feedback, both good and bad. They assess it based on the credibility of the source and the persuasiveness of the logic, then act on it when appropriate. The goal isn’t to accept every piece of feedback.

Being a founder is one of the loneliest roles there is. Everyone's livelihood rides on your decisions, but no one else carries the same weight of responsibility. The hardest calls are made in isolation, and you own the outcome either way. The job is only getting harder.

Takes hypocrisy to a whole new level.

Yesterday, the founder of a well-known, successful company called me to reference check two people he was considering for a senior role. He wasn’t looking for reassurance. He was genuinely trying to understand them, including anything that might cause him to reconsider either hire. He’s called me before about other hires, including people who wouldn’t even report directly to him. He doesn’t delegate this to others. He calls himself. I'm sure that kind of rigor is part of why his company has been so successful.

We have more than 100 years of evidence to compare socialism & capitalism. The results have made it clear which system creates more prosperity & improves more lives.

I don’t agree that enterprises will choose building over buying all sw, even in the age of AI.
