How do you measure the impact of your engineering management strategy?
One thing I have found helpful is to have an informal show & tell meeting for team demos. Keeping it low-key helped new/junior folks show small-and-little things get feedback from the team as well as provided a platform for mid-senior folks to show things they built recently. This helped us create a culture of innovation and everybody would look forward to attending this meeting to showcase their work and get inspired. Successful demos would then make it to org level meetings and then all way to the company level engineering meetings and conference talks. Creating a safe space for innovation and learning helps everyone grow and brings in excitement to an otherwise monotonous kind of work chipping away at features of a software product.

How do you measure the impact of your engineering management strategy?
One of the things I tried in a previous role was to block an hour each week for a reading group where we would discuss any relevant paper or article from academia or from other companies. The topics were crowdsourced and presented an opportunity for team members to show their strengths (e.g., depth of math/stats knowledge) but also learn from each other. We would prioritize topics that were relevant to systems we were building or if someone was excited about a latest tech. We would try to incorporate ideas into our design docs or keep our design extensible incase the ideas were not immediately applicable. This helped us build better systems and overall raise the technical bar and collaboration within the team.

How do you measure the impact of your engineering management strategy?
In my experience, productivity and technical excellence goes hand-in-hand and this is also a reflection of team maturity. It might be easy to ship a project quickly but thinking ahead to pay closer attention to the project design, quality and observability is what sets a team for success. If after shipping the project, the team is spending most of the time in operations, keeping things up and running and not shipping anything new, it might be indicative of lack of technical excellence in the first stage itself.
