An Elegant Puzzle: Systems of Engineering Management

There's a saying that people don't leave companies, they leave managers. Management is a key part of any organization, yet the discipline is often self-taught and unstructured.

Drawing from his experience at Digg, Uber, and Stripe, Will Larson has developed a thoughtful approach to engineering management that leaders of all levels at companies of all sizes can apply. <i>An Elegant Puzzle</i> balances structured principles and human-centric thinking to help any leader create more effective and rewarding organizations for engineers to thrive in.
