I have a newsletter blog called Engineering Leadership (https://newsletter.eng-leadership.com/) and I write about (you guessed it :)) topics that are all things Engineering Leadership related.
The goal is to help:
- Engineers who want to progress their careers.
- Engineering leaders in the engineering leadership role for the first time.
- Seasoned engineering leaders who want to stay up-to-date.
- Founders who want to learn what it takes to build a high-performing engineering organization.
- Everyone who wants to learn more about engineering leadership topics in general.
