Computer programmers may have the best ideas in their minds, but they are worthless if they cannot communicate them clearly to other people. David Barrett, CEO of Expensify, joins Amy Vetter to share how to cross the imagination gap by being an excellent communicator both verbally and on paper. He looks back on falling in love with computer programming at the age of six and the story behind the genesis of Expensify. David also discusses the secret of his career success, detailing how to stay positive despite the negativities he faced along the way, the importance of humility in leadership, and the power of framing success regardless of other people’s expectations.
