A lot of you read Charity’s blog on an engineer’s rights and responsibilities. Thousands of you, in fact. Well, Emily has dropped a follow-up just this week on an Engineering Manager’s Rights & Responsibilities. We’d love for you to join us on Twitter this Friday for a casual discussion about how to be a better engineering manager. If you sign up here, we’ll send you a reminder when the space is starting.

We hope to cover the below—but we’d love a freewheeling chat and maybe what happens will be totally different:

  1. What are the most important responsibilities for engineering managers? What qualities and traits best support these responsibilities, and which ones of those can you develop if you don’t have them?
  2. What rights should engineering managers have? How can you tell if you’re in an environment where your rights will be honored?
  3. Because it’s been a hot topic of discussion this week – how do you create an environment where individual contributors will want to stay more than two years, and what do you do if your company isn’t supporting you in this? There’s no easy answer to this one, but there have been lots of conversations about this topic for ICs on Twitter Spaces and we wanted to take some time to focus on the manager point of view.

We hope you can attend, but if not, we’ll send you a link to the recording if you sign up on this page, and you can ask follow-up questions on Twitter or in our Pollinators Slack. We’ll also send out a list of other engineering management topics that we’ve covered in the past.

By signing up, you’ll also receive further engineering management content—keep your eyes peeled on your inbox for a monthly email. We won’t add you to our main list unless you also tick the box that says “yes, please sign me up to hear about Honeycomb.io programming,” and we won’t connect you with sales unless you check “yes, please have someone contact me about implementing Honeycomb.io.”

Thank you for your interest! We hope you’ll come experiment with us.
