“The more room you have to fail, the more space you have to innovate.” -Christopher O’Donnell

 

In this episode, Jay interviews Christopher O'Donnell, SVP of Product at Hubspot, and founder of the rock band The Providers.  Christopher manages a rapidly growing creative team at Hubspot, and thus he and Jay chat deeply about fostering creativity as a small business owner, but also: adaptability as an entrepreneurial skill set, celebrating the little wins, soliciting feedback from the right people, imposter syndrome, gap awareness, running controlled experiments and viewing one's self as a talent agent/coach.
