I've been in NYC all week for #LeadDevNewYork #LeadingEngNewYork #StaffPlusNewYork, and it strikes me just how many stories and questions I've been hearing about career pendulum issues. 🤔 Problems with comp, ladders, recruiting, accountants etc.

This is GREAT. This is progress.
When all you hear is happy stories about people swinging back to engineering work after management, you can assume it's a rare and curious event. You're bucking the system, not changing it.

Friction and cranky accountants are a sign the status quo is shifting, tho. 🙃
We talk a lot about how powerful you become as a contributor with both skill sets. We talk less about the detoxifying effect it has on team dynamics, when you drain the authoritarian elements and respect management like any other function.

Strategic communication: creates understanding, drives agreement, and builds trust. “You’re all bad at it.” @skamille coming in strong with the harsh truth 🥲 #LeadingEngNewYork Image
Status updates are strategic updates. Good opportunity to provide reflection, education, and visibility. Good to do this regularly and have your teams do this. Useful record for promos and reviews too! #LeadingEngNewYork Image
Examples of good/bad status updates. Why is this update important? What context is needed? What did we do? What was the result? ImageImage
