Mastering Multiple Engineering Leadership Roles for Maximum Impact
Elena Grahovac

As an engineering manager or technical leader, navigating multiple roles that demand a diverse set of skills is a common yet challenging part of the job.

In this workshop, we will explore how to effectively balance these multiple roles and responsibilities in a complex engineering environment. Participants will be guided through the creation of their own leadership framework, tailored to adapt to the unique situations and styles of each individual. Beginning with identifying core values and responsibilities, the framework is elaborated into an actionable plan to succeed.

This workshop not only offers an opportunity for reflection on personal and professional development but also provides tools and insights to enhance management capabilities and team dynamics. Join us to cultivate a comprehensive approach to leadership that aligns with your unique role, responsibilities, and personal style.
