Episode notes

There's so many gaps in how we communicate that need to be filled. A five year old is different than a 25 year old with their ability to do both the accepting of the information and the projecting of the information. I find that when I'm having conversations sometimes my, especially my younger one, my older one, they just have trouble parsing what I'm saying. And if you put me back literally right now in a situation where I had two under twos, it would actually be a struggle for me.

Allison McMillan, VP of Engineering at Quota Path, joins us to talk about the transformation engineering leaders go through when they become parents and the lessons we can take parenting to our day-to-day as managers. From communication to rewards vs. consequences to dealing with other humans and their unique challenges.
