This shift from traditional product management, which often results in use-case locked data, to data product leadership, allows for broader application of data. Data Product Leaders (DPLs) bridge the gap between data engineering and customer use-cases, anticipating needs and structuring data to meet these needs. This shift in roles is pivotal for modern, data-driven organizations.

    If you are an Engineering Manager and it doesn't feel right, then it probably isn't. Sometimes it is just growing pains or transitional anxiety, but if that continues and you find yourself unenergized and unmotivated by your work then it might be time to slip back into some old habits. It is okay to try the role for a while then transition out if that is what works for you. Hopefully you'll learn some new skills along the way. The transition back to Individual Contributor is more common than you think and if it feels like the right move, chances are it just might be.

    TLDR: In modern high-pressure business environments, building a cohesive and adaptable team is crucial. Effective strategies involve selecting members with intrinsic motivation, stress tolerance, self-confidence, teamwork skills, and relevant experience. A positive working environment, devoid of toxicity, and with a clear sense of impact on business goals, is essential. High pressure impacts teams with breakdowns, fatigue, and personal sacrifices, affecting productivity. Leadership plays a pivotal role in guiding teams, involving monitoring, advice, understanding limits, and removing toxicity. Cultivating resilience involves setting challenging but achievable tasks, expanding psychological capacities, while avoiding setting impossible goals. Ultimately, mastering these strategies can transform high-pressure situations into opportunities for growth and excellence.
