○ I learn therefore I am
● Leader + Manager
○ Management is doing things right; leadership is doing the right things (Bennis)
○ Cope with Complexity and Change
○ Prefer Trust and Respect over Authority
● Product focused
○ We do projects for the sake of improving our/user/customer experience

4. My Weaknesses (WIP)
● Excessive curiosity
○ Keep me focused if I stray
○ Expect same curiosity in others
● Interrupt speakers
○ I cannot hold my questions till the end since I forget them OR
○ I grasp the idea earlier than people expect
● OCD about typos
5. Operating Style
● Context
○ I provide context, you define problems and find solutions (See Socratic method)
○ Prefer fire-and-forget torpedoes and not wire-guided
● Empowerment
○ Keep me informed of problems, solutions, decisions and ask for help
○ Go get alignment - stakeholders, partners, peers, and reports
● Accountable
○ You are responsible for results, delivery and learning
● Make the right choice (not the easy choice)
○ I am not going to automatically choose your view because you are on my team
○ Not outcome oriented (your plan gets approved or our team gets ownership)
6. Socratic Method
● I will ask a lot of questions
○ It is not due to lack of trust
○ Treat it as brainstorming and playing devil’s advocate
○ I am curious by nature and questions will follow
○ Practice for your external interactions - you should hear the toughest questions from me
● I will not have all the answers
○ We will figure it out together
7. Push for growth

● Personal growth
○ Soft skills - communication, negotiation, navigation, etc.
○ Sales and marketing of your ideas
● Leadership (independent of path you chose)
○ People and Relationship management
○ Software Engineering and Architecture
● Career
○ Lifetime growth and not just at this company
8. Reviews
● Continuous Feedback
○ Not at that moment but in 1:1
○ I expect the same continuous feedback from you about me
○ Formal reviews should never be a surprise for both of us
● Quality and Impact are as important as Quantity
○ “Organizations become what they are measured by”
9. If you are a Leader/Manager
● Your operating style does not have to be same as mine
BUT
● Seek Trust and Respect and not Authority
● Focus on your team’s growth in all aspects
● Psychological safety is a must
10. Psychological Safety
● Google HR Project Aristotle
○ Concluded that psychological safety was the top attribute of successful and happy teams
● We are taking interpersonal risk every day
○ Actions we do and the resulting perception we think people have from our actions
○ Asking questions, requesting help, presenting our ideas, etc.
○ Taking bets on projects which have ambiguous outcomes or can fail
● Human tendency is to err towards safety by minimizing these risks
Psychological safety is how conducive the environment is to take these risks
11. My Job

○ Take visible risks
○ Acknowledge my mistakes
● Provide context and support
○ Goals should be driven by learning and performance and not psychological safety
● Create a safe environment
○ Be open to your questions and ideas
○ Ask you and others questions
○ Provide constructive guidance and feedback about your interpersonal interactions
12. Your Job

○ Provide me regular feedback
● Peers

○ Judge the idea and not the person/team
○ Value others with your attention (e.g. during meetings)
● Feedback
○ Never place blame
○ Help your team become comfortable receiving feedback from each other
○ Use feedback as a way to strengthen learning
