Taking a leaf from software engineers who share their best practices on tools like GitHub, many leaders share their experiences, including failures on professional networks. . Open-source leadership doesn’t reinvent the wheel.

TL;DR Technical product managers work with engineering and development teams on the technical performance of software products. While product managers are more customer and business-centric, technical PMs focus on the technical development and implementation of solutions. What is a technical product manager?

Great engineers leave when they are no longer excited by an opportunity. These engineers are in demand, they have other companies constantly knocking on their doors, pitching them exciting opportunities, as well as money, in an attempt to convince them to leave.

If you don’t approach multi-team leadership as its own beast, everyone is going to suffer. Within development teams, who does the unplanned work, such as support? It’s helpful for engineering teams to establish a rotation where developers take turns being on point for this stuff. Not just the ferrets. It was demoralizing.
