management road map w/ eric yager
guest: eric yager, site tech lead, amazon air science technology organization
- expect competition for talent not just from other companies but from other teams inside the same large organization
- offer flexibility on remote work and location since engineers now have many options and recruiters reach out constantly
- write down team tenants so decisions can still happen smoothly when the manager is not in the room
- run one on ones every week with direct reports and plan specific topics ahead of time instead of winging it
- if you lack the exact skills for an entry level tech role, take an adjacent role to get in the door and then work toward the role you want
