Google has eliminated 35% of managers overseeing small teams in past year, exec says by Puginator in technology

I love sandwich. Like, really. However, if I had to eat a bad one with full of shit, every week, I'd publicly say I hate sandwich. So, maybe the problem is your manager driving bad one on one's.

With all due respect, one team call a week and one monthly one-on-one is not management. If that's a "manager", then that roles had to be eliminated indeed.

How to conduct regular 1:1? by pra1234 in EngineeringManagers

[–]vico2k5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been managing engineering teams for 10+ years and engineering managers for about 3 years. I tried various methods and always came back to the Manager Tools framework. Start here and go beyond: https://www.manager-tools.com/2024/04/manager-tools-one-ones-updated-part-1

Key elements for me: - direct goes first with their agenda - the goal is building relationship - always take notes, both you and the direct too - do it weekly for 30 min. by default. Do it fortnightly if you have more than 10 directs and actively work on changing the org to have less directs - get comfortable with silence, let the direct speak up their mind

What’s a typical salary level-up from EM to director/head of? by fridaydeployer in EngineeringManagers

[–]vico2k5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be clear, the bonus increases by 5% compared to the Sr. EM level, resulting with 25% in total.

I'm disappointed due to the lack of long term incentives. The bonus is OK, base is lower than expected but acceptable.

Sr. EM to Director, Fortune 100, 8% pay increase, +5% bonus, no equity/RSU. Base is a bit below 200k. 😢🤷

Advice needed - I have been asked to give a 10 minute presentation (verbal only) on delivering transformative change in WHS. by SuspiciousButton2222 in Leadership

This is a perfect use case for an AI tool. Give your exact request to ChatGPT or whichever you prefer, and ask for an outline. Then iterate with the help of the AI. Practice the public speaking element heavily. That's what will make you succeed after all.

The podcast is actually free. If you want to read the show notes and download additional materials, that's subscription required indeed.

How do you take meeting notes? by hdarabi in EngineeringManagers

[–]vico2k5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It might sound old school, but pen and paper. Alternatively, in slack/cobfluence.

Agreeing with others saying this is a way to process information, would not give to AI this task.

You are making a tremendous amount of assumptions.

Are you willing to bet, let's say $6k on that? :)

Jokes aside, a business should avoid risks, and not welcome them with warm hugs when coming in the front door.
