Inside the program
Engineering Manager Q&A Library
The answer to the thing on your desk this week.
Short videos answering the questions members actually ask. Not a curriculum, a growing library of specific situations and what to do about them.
Real questions, answered properly
Every one of these came from a member. Each answer is under five minutes, because the answer to a specific question does not need forty.
Keeping the culture together on a shrinking team.
4 minA manager who is harsh one day and warm the next.
4 minWhat to do when your manager says push the team harder.
5 minSomeone gets defensive and challenges your feedback.
3 minTelling someone they are not getting promoted this cycle.
5 minManaging someone who used to be your peer.
4 minAsk one and it gets answered
Post the situation in the community. If it is something other managers will hit too, it becomes the next video in the library.
You ask
In the community, in as much detail as you want. Nobody at your company sees it.
It gets generalised
The specifics come out so the answer is useful to everyone and identifies nobody.
It gets recorded
A short video answering it directly, added to the library for every member.
The library only gets bigger.
Everything added after you join is yours as well. There is no renewal and nothing to cancel.
The Q&A library comes with the program.
Along with the 90 day route, the simulations, the expert interviews, the community and your two 1-1s.
