Today it was @_pkill asking about any further resources or writings.
(They exist! They are pretty much categorically the most awe-inspiring technical leaders I have ever known. 💜💙💚)
We also need to be transcribing and sharing these conversations in some form, to see what patterns and best practices emerge.
* have a birds-of-a-feather type meetup at Velocity SJ, over dinner or drinks or something
* kick off a limited run discussion group in the sf area, along the model of the peer tech leadership groups I wrote up (charity.wtf/2018/08/24/how…
* designate a slack room in an existing slack, or yet another slack for this purpose, either public or invite-only.
What I would hope to see come out of any of these:
- testimonials from managers about how they got institutional support for it
- how to deal with really hard problems that arise from a more- fluid line between eng and mgr roles
So here's my question. Assuming I have the time and energy to pull off ONE of those, which would you all get the most value from?
Thanks folks 🥰🌷
