fictorial

I'm a long-time generalist "full-stack" developer. Past 9 years I've been a freelance iOS developer and I could take on as much work as I wanted, pick how it was done, etc.

Now, I'm the CTO of a small web development shop and manage 4 developers. I'm struggling with being pulled in a million directions and have a hard time focusing enough to get work done. I'm happy setting up technical architecture, mentoring junior developers, etc. But, I'm also seen as the tech guru who can and should do anything needed quickly and I simply cannot because I need to focus to be productive.

I'm either in full on people mode or full on hyper focused tech mode and switching kills me. Do you have any tips/books/videos/anecdotes/advice for a newbie "C level" developer?

Thanks!
