Looking back on 2016 and the first year of Seeking Wisdom (including the impact the podcast has had on our business at Drift).

We thought we’d end 2016 and kickoff 2017 by going back through some of the key lessons from the past year, including:

- How a modern product team should work.

- How to become a learning machine.

- The power of learning from others.

- Why you need role models.

- Innovation, not invention.

- The secret to running effective 1:1 meetings.

- The art of managing up.

- Advice for recent grads/millenials: you need to carry the water.
