About this listen

Time management is a constant challenge for all engineering managers and tech leaders. Do you struggle to find time to do everything you need to do? Do you find yourself saying, "I'd love to talk, but I've got to run…" Then this book is for you! It can feel that there's never enough time because the workload and expectations can both be high. How do other people do it? What are their secrets? How can you get the maximum benefits from minimum investments of time, and work smarter not harder? This can be especially overwhelming for new managers. In this book, I share tons of actionable tips, tactics, and strategies to get things done based on over 90 interviews of engineering managers at https://managersclub.com, and my personal experience as an engineering leader. Why Another Book On Time Management? While effective time management is essential for everybody, this book is about the time management techniques that specifically work for managers including software development managers, engineering managers, people managers, team leads, etc. Most of the literature about time management is not specific to managers and the unique aspects of their job. Many of the same things will apply to individual contributors, but not all.
