I''m spending more of my time recently working with non-technical startup founders who are having challenges with their software/web/mobile development teams. Common Signals I''ve written previously about Symptoms of a Weak Development Team. Rogue developers with their own agenda. One of your better developers leaves.

I am hearing from my project management team a bit of distrust in the technical capacity of our web development team. I think we suffer because of the distance and culture but the project management team takes every late delivery or small bug as evidence that the development team may not be capable. No communication between developers.

While Bob’s post focuses on Technology Advisors and the Startup Founder Developer Gap , we also discussed advisors more broadly.

Based on my posts Startup CTO or Developer and Acting CTO , Chris O’Meara wrote an interesting post Startup CTO: Could It Work? They tend to have the knack for architecture. Common sense says you'd do your best to hire or otherwise permanently engage that lead developer. They can likely close a lot of the Founder Developer Gap.

But when Microsoft is talking about “huddling around the benchmark” and “only making a pull request when it’s an order of magnitude of Node.js” – I would say that the benchmarks are providing real value to the development community. This new release is one of the most significant architectural updates we’ve done to ASP.NET.
