About the event
Stepping into a leadership role as an engineer is an exciting opportunity but can be both challenging and daunting. The transition from individual contributor to people manager requires more than just technical excellence, it demands a shift in mindset, new communication skills, and the ability to influence beyond your own code.
But how do you navigate this transition successfully and establish yourself as a credible leader, positioning yourself for the best progression opportunities?
We’re bringing together an invite-only group of aspiring engineering leaders for a candid discussion on the realities of leadership growth. Share challenges with peers on a similar trajectory, learn from seasoned engineering managers who have successfully made the leap, and walk away with actionable strategies to accelerate your leadership journey.
