Episode notes

The best grounding piece of information you can hold on to is the fact that you are mortal, and I like to say at this point I'm 48, so I'm on the back half of my life. What I hope that people would write about me or say about me or whatever is that I was compassionate and helpful in situations where it didn't necessarily bring me any gain. If the goal is just to write a book, then I shouldn't do it because it's not going to be worth it. But if one person reads this and has an impact, then it's worth having done it.

Join Chad Fowler, Jason Warner, and Eiso Kant in a heartfelt existential episode on what it means to be an engineering leader that will have you question if the manager path is the right one for you. An essential listen for anyone trying to find meaning in their role.
