Engineering Management Tip #4

Write a mini doc (or as needed a more formal doc) for:

  • ahead of all meetings (including 1:1's)
  • projects
  • new ideas
  • new problems

This allows you to spend your time brainstorming ahead of time and to ask good questions or provide guidance during the meeting. For important meetings set a reminder (e.g., use the Due app) 15 minutes before to ensure the mini doc is written.

Ideally write them in a place where you can share the doc as needed.
