    What HN people wrote when they linked it

    • gregorojstersekJul 2023

      I have a newsletter blog called Engineering Leadership (https://newsletter.eng-leadership.com/) and I write about (you guessed it :)) topics that are all things Engineering Leadership related.

      The goal is to help:

      - Engineers who want to progress their careers.

      - Engineering leaders in the engineering leadership role for the first time.

      - Seasoned engineering leaders who want to stay up-to-date.

      - Founders who want to learn what it takes to build a high-performing engineering organization.

      - Everyone who wants to learn more about engineering leadership topics in general.

      Example of a post with very interesting discussions here on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36279323
