Welcome
Also, so excited to be reading a newsletter you're writing!
The set of eng/design/pm <> exec relationships is another to consider. I've found this to be the toughest to navigate as an EM. Some examples:
- "don't build it until I approve the design" -> build a high trust relationship
- "why aren't you building X?" -> work towards alignment
- "why is X taking so long?" -> milestone communication, tech debt education
> Everything is a P0 problem → Working together to prioritize defects
This!
