    Story: Jeffrey Snover and the Making of PowerShell

    What if you had to fight against your company's culture to bring a revolutionary tool to life? Meet Jeffrey Snover, the Microsoft architect behind PowerShell, a command tool that transformed Windows system administration.

Despite facing pushback and navigating through company restructures, his persistence paid off.  This episode explores how Snover's relentless drive and clear vision overcame numerous obstacles, leading to a tool that is now fundamental in modern enterprise environments. Listen to how one person's determination can challenge the status quo.   Help Adam Find His Next Role I'm on the hunt for a new developer relations role.  If you know of any companies where they need someone who can speak engineer, who can communicate to developers, that's me. I'm your guy for explaining complex stuff in a way that's catchy and fun and makes sense to software developers. If you know of any roles like this, let me know. Who should I be talking to? Reach out: Adam@CoRecursive.com, @adamgordonbell, Linkedin, My Calendar.
