The Talk

Topic:Building & maintaining an innovative team in a world of constant change

Summary:"If you have the opportunity to be part of a successful startup you will learn that the only constant is change. During my current nine year run at Truila / Zillow Group I went from Senior Software Engineer to VP of Engineering. Trulia went from startup, public company, acquiring companies to being acquired by Zillow in 2015. I’ve been able to build successful innovative teams and products with low turnover in constantly changing environment. I want to share some of the learnings from this journey" - Tim
