Measuring output and time spent is easy, while measuring efficiency and effectiveness is hard. Here's why trusting your engineers beats tracking their productivity.

Trustocracy sounds funny, but it's a more accurate representation of how we're measured. We aren't (and can't) be measured objectively on what we accomplish at work. But we are (unavoidably) measured by the trust we've built with our co-workers.

Relationships can only be win-win, or lose-lose, because they're a connection between two people.

Career growth, delegation, and succession planning are all siblings.

The gap between mid-level and senior engineers usually isn’t technical skill. It’s behavior, judgment, communication, and the ability to make everyone around them better.
