    What are the best learning resources for transitioning from Coder to CEO?

    I used to only know how to code, but recently my project has progressed and it has become necessary for me to take on the role of CEO. I also have to convince my colleagues that I will be a good CEO. Are there any good resources for this?

    Congratulations. I wrote about how developers can think and act like a CEO a while ago. You might find it useful: https://eisabainyo.net/weblog/20... I hope I am not the first person to tell you that technical skills alone are not enough in your career. Don’t get me wrong, I believe sound technical skills are absolutely important for a developer. But if you really want to get far and get ahead in your career, you will need to start thinking and acting like a CEO. The good news is, with any skill in life, the ability to “Think and act like a CEO”is a learned skill that can be obtained through practice.
