My experience in the first month as an engineering manager

I stepped into the new role as an engineering manager since June 2024 after an exciting journey as a backend-turned-full-stack software engineer.

What I learnt

  1. Maintain a to-do list.

  2. Block time on calendar for sport, slack, and networking.

  3. Coaching is about asking questions, instead of giving answers.

  4. If there is no onboarding material, create one yourself.
