By Chet Kapoor, Chairman & CEO at DataStax Along with the exciting possibilities of generative AI (genAI), there have been concerns around job (in)security and displacement. Leaders are feeling the pressure to implement genAI quickly and automate as much as possible. Some will see this as an opportunity to “get lean” and reduce headcount. Others will keep the people they have and find new ways to become super efficient.

The need for "glue" code is a fact of life for programmers. Sooner or later, that app you’ve crafted, that shining monument to software engineering, will need to be sullied by actually running it on a real system. Perhaps you need a boot script, or you need to build a container. Maybe it’s a tool that needs to be invoked as part of some larger orchestration process.

People are among the most prized assets of many startup companies, so when employees leave after an acquisition, it can be a substantial loss for the acquiring company. Why do so many startup employees leave, and how do startup acquisitions impact their careers? Using U.S. Census Bureau data from 1990 to 2011 that encompasses 230,000 acquired startup workers, the author researched these questions and discovered significantly higher turnover rates among acquired workers compared to regular hires.

Public company boards are typically focused on oversight, supporting the management team while keeping a respectful distance from day-to-day operations. In contrast, boards of companies owned by private equity tend to be much more hands-on. Often populated by former CEOs, these boards are more likely to get involved in shaping strategy and culture, providing information to the company, and actively engaging with future CEO candidates further in advance of succession.
