About this listen
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. Getting to the good solutions of complex management challenges can make the difference between fulfillment and frustration for teams, and, ultimately, the success or failure of companies.
Will Larson's An Elegant Puzzle orients around the particular challenges of engineering management - from sizing teams to technical debt to succession planning - and provides a path to the good solutions. 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. An Elegant Puzzle balances structured principles and human-centric thinking to help any leader create more effective and rewarding organizations for engineers to thrive in.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Good content poor narrator
Good content, a bit disorganized. Poor narration rushed and odd pause. I am OK with fast pace but this one is very strange.

Save us from Programmers
Another Silicon Valley programmer who views every single situation in life as a C++ software writing challenge, and an example of the remarkably baffling attitude that software development is engineering. Even the name "tech industry" reflects this problem.
Myopic people who think they have universal skills. Only minimally useful to me, as an engineering manager in a different sector.
Also, the robotic voice cooyist? Does not sound human, and is remarkably distracting. Again - Silicon Valley - stop talking and listen, because half of the things you think are great? Are absolutely terrible to everyone else.
