Welcome to Practical Engineering Management

Hello,

Welcome to Practical Engineering Management! I'm Mirek, and I'm excited to have you join our community of ambitious engineering leaders.

Practical Engineering Management is all about turning inspiration into action. As someone who has led engineering teams for years, I understand the gap between theory and practice. I've been there – inspired by great ideas but wondering how to put them into motion.

Articles and materials 

That's where PEM comes in. The focus goes to practical implementations. No long-winded theories, just actionable steps you can use right away. You'll learn how to empower your team, build trust, maximize results, and understand the value you deliver to the organization.

Here's long-form content I recommend starting with:

• Go back to coding, engineering leader
• Technical debt - what it is and how to deal with it
• Build team of missionaries, not mercenaries
• Simple data tracking solutions for engineering leaders
• 1:1 - the essential tool for leaders

You can read more on PEM's blog. I also shared tens of short-form "One bites" with pieces of advice for engineering leaders.

For premium subscribers 

If you decide to become a paid subscriber, you'll get exclusive access to hands-on insights that directly impact your leadership journey:

Last but not least, I would love to know you better. Just drop me a message on mirek@practicalengineering.management, say "hi" or share with me:

• Something about yourself
