Evo #66 - Giving Developers Freedom and Ownership, can you give too much?

Giving Developers Freedom and Ownership, can you give too much?Today's host is Matt Arnold, and joining him are our amazing guests: - Jason Pereira - Director of engineering, product platforms at OFX- Yihan Lu - Software engineering manager at Lendi- Ed Hatrick-Smith - Engineering manager at DovetailWe discussed topics such as:-✔ What freedom and responsibility mean in an engineering team ✔ What strategies, guardrails, or techniques can be applied to help team members be effective in high-freedom environments✔ The implicit stereotype about engineers needing to be restrained, otherwise they may wander off in the wrong direction and the reasons for this.Some really interesting ideas came out of this chat and as ever I'd like to thank the panel for their time and effort to talk about such an important topic.📍 We have a number of really interesting topics lined up to discuss in our forthcoming editions, so if you'd like to be involved in the next Evolution Exchange event, feel free to drop me a message! 📍 Hosted on Acast.
