Excerpt from the interview:
"We’re in the golden era of engineering leadership. I don’t think there’s ever been a better time to be VP of Engineering or a manager or director. The reason is, a lot of companies are product-focused, and software is the key to their success - when you’re an engineering leader in that environment, the business is relying on your expertise a lot.
There’s a stereotype that executives tell engineering teams what they want, and they just build it without any desire to be at board meetings and have a say in business-level goals. That’s not the case anymore.
It’s becoming more and more expected from engineering leaders to be actively involved in business discussions, as they drive one of the most impactful and expensive departments of the company. Being part of these conversations also helps tech leaders allocate their engineering resources more effectively."
pretty good episode
Thank you for your feedback! What was your favorite part?
@@lvlupeng I like the part that talks about universal language for communication being data, also the part stressing the importance of planning and capacity accuracy.
Btw, I appreciate you guys putting the discussion summary in a blogpost which is quicker to consume than video. I also like the host's style of rephrasing the answer in her words after the response, it's useful for both the listener and the speaker.
Oh, another favorite part is Karolina's hair :)
This is very kind of you, wow! Also, we all envy Karolina's hair🤩@@ratul-ray

PS. I appreciate it! I am my own hairdresser hahaha ✂️
