282: 5 skills to master before you worry about tech
Manage episode 523560320 series 2974873
Most people dive into tools, stacks, and AI hacks the moment a new idea lands.
Sadly, that's the fastest way to burn cash and momentum.
Here's the thing: before you touch a single line of tech, you need to master the skillset the best companies in the world return to again and again — the skillset that actually creates traction.
In this episode of Tech for Non-Techies, Sophia breaks down the five core product-innovation skills every modern business leader must build long before worrying about Bubble, React, or any new AI tool.
You'll hear real examples, simple frameworks, and the mindset shift that separates people who waste months building the wrong thing from those who get paying customers fast.
In this episode, you will hear:
- The hidden trap that makes smart people obsess over tech too early
- How a simple prototype and five honest conversations can save months of work
- What separates useful user feedback from polite lies
- The habit innovative companies like Amazon repeat long after they scale
