Great engineers don't necessarily make great leaders--at least, not without a lot of work. Finding your path to becoming a strong leader is often fraught with challenges. It's not easy to figure out how to be successful, empathetic, and caring yet tough. Whether you're on the management or individual contributor track, you need to develop strong leadership skills. This book guides you on the path to becoming a well-rounded and resilient engineering leader. The first half focuses on you, and how you can develop the self-management skills needed to survive and thrive in a leadership role. The second half focuses on teams, including the necessary components of team functioning that will empower and support your teams and the individuals within them. You'll learn how to create and balance both individual and team growth. This book is for two main types of people. It’s for leaders—folks who manage engineering teams. It’s also for individual contributors (ICs)—the folks who do the day-to-day work of writing code, shipping products, and so on. Whether you’re in a leadership role or an IC role, whichever way you slice it, you’re still the manager of yourself. The guidance in this book is written to help you navigate your career, your organization, your team—and to make the best of what you have around you, whatever that is, in the different forms it comes in.
