The Corporate corner meets with Tony Schiavo a Wall Street FinTec CTO.
We look at Tony’s career that took him to several Wall Street banks and how he was part of transforming the electronic trading systems in these banks for the last decades.
We talk about the challenges of managing people, how to lead by influence and the difficulty of having to lay people off.
Tony talks about how he took a year off from Wall Street to work on the relationships that had been suffering during his career and how he went to a 10 day silent retreat in Canada and what that is doing to this technology man from Wall Street.
Finally, we talk about recruitment and the peculiar thing Tony and his team is looking for in a person and also about his current job at TruMid where he has created an organization without processes and where he likes everyone in the company, which is such an unusual thing to hear, these days.
