This blog helps engineers to grow as people leaders.
Hi. I’m Greg, an experienced engineering leader. I have 10+ years of people leadership experience leading global engineering teams.
Management is hard.
Many of us in engineering leadership positions got promoted into management from individual contributor roles, me included. The transition from hands-on engineer to people manager is rife with unfamiliar situations. Some days, you wanna throw up your hands and quit.
Hang in there. I’m here to help.
I’ve grown into the people leadership role, making mistakes, learning lessons and gaining valuable experiences along the way. This blog provides my insights into people management for engineering managers, especially first-time managers. Most of the blog posts are based on T-shirts.
T-shirts?
Seriously?
Yes!
I’m not a ninja, rock star or whisperer. I’m a funky T-shirt guy. T-shirts with offbeat graphics appeal to me. I thought it would be fun to frame the blog posts around those T-shirt graphics. Plus, it gives me a chance to be creative, using those graphics to tell a story.
Being a people leader can be challenging at times, but it’s worth the effort. I love what I do. Learn more about me here.
