Mistakes I've made as an engineering manager  ↦

Sarah Drasner:

I’ve been a manager for many years at companies of different scale. Through these experiences, I’ve done my share of learning, and made some mistakes along that way that were important lessons for me. I want to share those with you.

The four mistakes that Sarah details, which we can all learn from:

  1. Thinking people give feedback the way they want to receive it
  2. Trying to do everything yourself as a manager is the best way to help
  3. Communicating something one time is enough
  4. You have to have everything together all the time
