Inspiring. Chaotic. Remarkable. These were just a few words used to describe our 6th annual #hackathon, TrueHack’s Castle🏯 Being able to #code is only half the journey. It’s about telling a compelling story, and dressing it up🍄#collaboration

How technical do you need to be to be an Engineering Manager? Most people will tell you VERY. I think not. You can be an avg engineer + a great EM. In fact, if you’re too technical of a manager it could hurt you. Speaking as a software engineer turned manager, here’s why:

Here’s the problem with 1:1s as an engineering manager: Most engineers don’t come to 1:1s with set agendas, so it turns into you talking for >30% of the time. 🤔 As an EM, how do you make the most of 1:1 time for your direct report?
