🎙️Living with doubts - finding your identity as an engineering leader This conversation between me and Proxify’s Chief Strategy Officer Lee Haynes, goes deep and honest into the transition from developer to manager. It’s recorded while I was still at Viaplay Group, as interim VP Tech Ops, both managing a team of hard working engineers and looking at the bigger picture of adressing quality across the prod dev org. As interim contractor, I really enjoy the diversity of assignments, being both strategic and hands-on, gaining trust for change in bigger or smaller organisations. 🤙Meeting individuals and helping them see the structure from an outsider perspective, can sometimes help frustration and to make your moves more strategically. 🥸 Often development conversations is around the feeling of being stuck and the curiosity to change into management or senior engineering, hesitating to take the leap into the unknown. 🎙️In the podcast episode, I open up to relay my story, the doubts I had accepting my first engineering manager role, why I think it’s important, the pride of being a leader and manager and how to succeed. Keen to hear your thoughts ❤️
