🔗 How I actually get good advice

Every 6 months, I spend 2 weeks intensively gathering advice from people who are much more experienced and successful than me at what we do at PostHog.

I’ve talked with people who have scaled some of the most successful software companies in the world and built tools that millions use every day. What I learned from them has fundamentally changed how we do things at PostHog.

I also increasingly have people asking me for advice about what they should do with their company. The main thing I’ve learned from both sides of the conversation is that getting good advice doesn’t just happen. It’s a skill.

These are the things I do to get good advice.
