Book Reviews

  • @Johnie The Manager's Path perhaps? It starts with the Tech Lead part. Instead of books I'd recommend this: https://t.co/irKQAesS1VLink to Tweet
  • Big ups to @skamille whose book THE MANAGER’S PATH, though targeted to engineering leaders, is super relevant to design leaders and managers. https://t.co/Jlcc0l575w I’m finding all kinds of gems in there.Link to Tweet
  • Book 30 Lesson: Be kind, not nice. Do the things that actually set people up to succeed, not just make them feel better in the moment. https://t.co/iibsXnoulKLink to Tweet
  • periodic reminder that @skamille's The Manager's Path is amazing. It really helped me understand the differences between a tech lead / manager / director / CTO even though I've never been a manager https://t.co/nCEgnY9eSZLink to Tweet
