Navigating Difficult Conversations
Summary
As engineering leaders, we constantly have to manage various conflicts that may arise, and often need to have some difficult conversations - whether it's giving and landing some critical feedback, or proposing a drastically different new direction for the team. Let's get together to share our experiences, what worked well and what didn't, and learn from each other.
