LinkedIn's "full stack builder" model

Key Takeaways

We call it the full stack builder model. The goal itself is to empower great builders to take their idea and to take it to market regardless of their role in the stack and specifically which team they're on. The idea ultimately for that builder is to develop experiences and to end to combine skills and expertise across what was traditionally distinct domains to bring it all together. And it's not a sequence of steps. It's really a fluid interaction between human and machine. The key traits where I think great builders should shine in the idea of vision. Coming up with a compelling stance about the future, empathy, having a profound understanding of an unmet need. Communication is critical. Creativity, coming up with possibilities beyond the obvious. Ultimately, what I think is the most important trait for a builder is judgment. It's making high quality decisions in what is complex, ambiguous situations.
