It was NOT SO EASY.
Clearly and broadly communicate your plans before taking action
Microsoft was moribund under Ballmer and then saved by Satya, right?
Engineering leaders need to adapt
Would your team make better decisions?
Don't use threats and bidding wars for salary negotiation
Spinning plates, plates too full, and being pulled in too many directions collide with feelings of overwhelm
By letting go of writing code, you open yourself up to excelling as a manager.
Don't use it for innovation and niche areas
Look, if you had one shot or one opportunity
Dependencies are often ignored or simplified
Waiting even 60 days to make an impact is too long
