Being a software team leader is HARD. There are so many things you have to juggle, and nobody prepares you for it.I started my first engineering management role 7 years ago, and I was completely overwhelmed. on the surface, everything seemed ok, but I was barely keeping it together. So I decided to do something about it. I've read tons of books, talked to tens of other team leaders, and improved. In 2020 I started a new role as a developer, and in 3 years I got promoted twice to a director of engineering. Now, I want to help other fresh engineering managers, by sharing what worked for me (and what didn’t). In my free weekly articles, you'll find practical no BS advice that you could actually apply TODAY to create a much stronger team.
