These guys are three of the mentors who have been most helpful to me in my own growth and decision-making, so it was a real honor to help share their collective wisdom with the next generation of technologists.</p> <p dir="ltr">Our discussion covered a lot of ground, from the practical to the philosophic, including themes like leadership, entrepreneurship, decision-making, motivation, and success. These themes make for particularly exciting discussion since technologists today have astonishing leverage to tackle the biggest problems and take on bold missions.</p> <p dir="ltr">We’re happy to share some video highlights from the event (you can check out the entire video <a href="http://asana.wistia.com/medias/1zr6oqk5l2">here</a>). We hope these will inspire and help guide anyone who strives to <a href="http://techcrunch.com/2012/01/20/do-great-things/">do great things</a> with their talent, whether that’s joining an important effort already in motion or starting something that truly needs starting.</p> <p><span id="more-1563"></span></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>What should leaders work on?</strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong></strong>Generally, “obsoleting” themselves. That is, every time you identify something that you’re doing that you could instead be mentoring someone else to do, mentor rather than falling into the trap of doing it yourself. <em>With one huge exception</em>: when you’re the absolute best person in the world to do it. Don’t fall into the <a href="http://techcrunch.com/2013/08/10/why-founders-fail-the-product-ceo-paradox/">Product CEO Paradox</a>.</p> <p><iframe title="What should leaders work on?

At Asana, we have punctuated times of reflection, doing a full week of planning three times a year to look ahead to the next four months. This ensures we always have time to reflect on how we’re doing against our long-term vision and correct course, while also allowing us to put one foot in front of the other for most of the year.</p> <p><iframe title="How do you balance long-term vision with short-term needs?

But also through mindfulness, both as self-reflection and feedback from others. Asana, for example, provides opportunities for personal growth by facilitating peer reviews and peer-mentor relationships, and generally promoting an open and honest culture.</p> <p><iframe title="How do leaders improve their skills?

At Asana, we <a href="https://asana.com/company">wrote our values</a> in the first week of starting the company. We list them on our website, explain how they apply in meetings, and routinely take the time to explain them. The result has been powerful: teams can resolve issues and diverging points of view quickly by having a compass. It took a lot of work, but now we collectively understand and embody our values.</p> <p><iframe loading="lazy" title="How do you create great culture?

While starting a company is often the best vehicle for bringing a new idea into the world, entrepreneurship for its own sake may be fracturing our collective efforts. This is discussed quite a bit in <a href="http://www.wired.com/business/2013/08/moskovitz-entrepreneurship/">Wired’s article covering the event</a>, which led to Dustin’s nuanced take on <a href="https://medium.com/i-m-h-o/decf0766de8d">Good and Bad Reasons to Become an Entrepreneur</a>.</p> <p><iframe loading="lazy" title="Should you start a company?
