Creating High Performing Teams

How do you step back from the day work of being an individual contributor to being a manager? What are the things you should start, stop, or continue doing? In our interview today with former CTO and now leadership coach Mathias Meyer, we talk about the unique challenges in the transition to manager.
If you’re a new engineering manager in particular, this is an essential episode for you. We dive into the challenges and tension of feeling up to date on technology and the work of your team, while not getting drawn into the productive feeling of writing code, which you shouldn’t do anymore.
