About this listen
Great engineers don't necessarily make great leaders—at least, not without a lot of work. Finding your path to becoming a strong leader is often fraught with challenges. It's not easy to figure out how to be strategic, successful, and considerate while also being firm. Whether you're on the management or individual contributor track, you need to develop strong leadership skills.
This practical book shows you how to become a well-rounded and resilient engineering leader.
● Understand what it means to be the driving force behind your career
● Learn how to self-manage and avoid the pitfalls that many newer managers face
● Establish evolving practices and structures to best scale your team
● Define the impact of your team and its core mission and values
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Story
A lot of Engineering Managers and leaders studied for years and years to become the best Engineer they possibly could be... and then they were promoted. It can be very tough for those of us who didn't go into Engineering with the distinct concept that we would become managers, but still want to do our best to support our teams. I wrote this book because there's so much no one told me about management that I wished I would have known. There's a lot to be purposeful about that many of us learn on the job, and worse: learn on people.

Outside Big Tech and a handful of other leading companies, machine learning initiatives routinely fail to deploy, never realizing value. What's missing? A specialized business practice suitable for wide adoption. In The AI Playbook, bestselling author Eric Siegel presents the gold-standard, six-step practice for ushering machine learning initiatives, aka predictive AI projects, from conception to deployment.
