How to Transition Into an Engineering Leadership Role

There is no hard and fast rule that says engineers cannot become good leaders — Engineers have many skills that make them ideal managers.

  • Motivation of team members (22%)
  • Exploring resource to bring improvements into the team (15%)
  • Handling corrective actions and performance reviews (15%)
  • Recruitment of new leaders and mentoring internal team members (12%)
