Engineering Management I Studio

Share challenges and best practices with a small group of EM’s in a live, facilitated weekly session.

WHO THIS IS FOR
  • Currently employed as a full-time people manager at a software product company (not an agency).
  • 1+ years of experience as an EM.
  • Primarily manages ICs.
  • Manages a single team. (Managers of multiple teams should join the Engineering Management II Studio)
TIME COMMITMENT
  • 5 weekly 90 minute sessions
  • < 1 hr of prep work before Week 1
  • No homework
  • We know you're busy—you just need to show up

It makes me feel much more comfortable in my role because I now have a perspective I didn't have before

— Engineering Manager, 2023

...building a network of peers outside your company is something that isn't talked much or valued much, even though it probably is one of the key ingredients in making someone better at being an EM.

— Engineering Manager, 2023

It's really helpful to be able to bounce ideas off a non-invested peer group.
