LeadDontCtrl Is Now on YouTube — Shorts Today, Big Spicy Videos Coming Soon

Alright rebels, it’s official:
LeadDontCtrl is on YouTube.

Right now, the channel is stocked with leadership shorts, fast hits of rebellious, truth-first, no-BS tech leadership wisdom. Think of them as microdoses of “stop doing that, here’s a better way.”

But don’t get too comfortable.
Bigger, louder things are coming.

What’s Live Right Now

I’ve posted a series of shorts covering:

  • What tech leads actually do (hint: it’s not micromanaging)
  • Why indecisive leaders stall teams
  • The subtle art of not running your standup like a TED Talk
  • Real leadership moves that don’t require a corporate playbook

They’re quick, sharp, and designed to jolt you out of bad leadership habits.

What’s Coming Next

More Shorts

Because apparently the internet loves leadership truth bombs served in under 60 seconds.

First Long-Form Video: "Career Advice I Give Every Developer I Mentor (But Never See Online)"

This is the one I’m most excited about.
It’s all the career guidance I wish someone would have told me, the stuff I share privately with developers I mentor, but never see anyone talking about publicly.

It’s honest. It’s practical. And it’s probably going to annoy a few “leadership influencers,” which makes it even better.

Why This Matters

The internet is packed with leadership advice written by people who haven’t led anything except their LinkedIn profile.
This channel is the antidote, modern leadership, real engineering experience, and zero corporate frosting.

Ctrl Zed is the digital alter ego of every tech leader who's had enough of micromanagement, meetings that should've been code, and leadership built on fear instead of trust.
