đź§ Community Wisdom: How you feel about your job right now, what to do while waiting for AI responses, making your product roadmap public, chasing big exits vs. sustainable bootstrapping, and more
👋 Hello and welcome to this week’s edition of ✨ Community Wisdom ✨ a subscriber-only email, delivered every Saturday, highlighting the most helpful conversations in our members-only Slack community.
A big thank-you to this month’s community sponsor, Composio. Composio lets you ship enterprise-grade AI agents instantly without burning engineering sprints on plumbing work. We equip your agents with 800+ pre-built connectors (like Salesforce, GitHub, and Linear) and handle the entire execution layer, including managed authentication, intelligent tool routing, and reliability. Empower your agents to do real work (not just chat).
Composio is giving away 3 months of free credits to Lenny’s Community members—check it out here!
🗳️ Lenny’s Polls: How do you feel about your job right now?
We’ve been thinking about how much collective wisdom there is in this community, and how much more we can learn from one another’s day-to-day experiences. So we’re going to experiment with capturing more of it and sharing what we learn with you.
This week, we’re launching Lenny’s Polls!
These are short polls that we’ll run every couple of weeks, to get a pulse on what’s happening in your work lives.
First up, we’re asking: How do you feel about your job right now?
The poll takes about a minute. Just 5 questions. Participation is 100% anonymous.
Take the poll here: https://web.polly.ai/bbqv1d.
This will only work if you participate, so please take the quick poll. And if you do, we’ll share the early results with you before we share them with the public. Thank you for being part of it!
