精彩摘录
- "It's a pretty universal truth that once you get the job you thorught you wanted, the enjoyment eventually fades and you find yourself looking for something else)"
- "You will not get everything you ask for, and asking is not usually a fun or comfortable experience. However, it's the fastest way forward."
- "The bedrock of strong teams is human connection, which leads to trust. And trust, real trust, requires the ability and willingness to be vulnerable in front of each other."
- "When you have a problem, instead of demanding that your manager solve it for you, try asking her for advice on how she might approach the problem. Asking for advice is always a good way to show respect and trust."
- "The trick of project management is not to stop when you feel a little bit stuck, or tired of it. It is tiring and tedious, as I said earlier. And it’s not something you probably know how to do well. So keep pushing through it past those points of irritation, boredom, and pain."
- "Good managers are looking out for talented people who could be given bigger leadership roles, but sometimes this leads them to push people away from coding before they’re ready. This practice can have a very negative impact on your career, because at more senior levels people who are considered “not"
- "As the manager of a process czar, help that person get more comfortable with ambiguity. As with many of the manager pitfalls, an obsession with process can be related to a fear of failure and a desire to control things to prevent the unexpected. If you are honest and make it clear that it’s safe to "
- "Working on the less exciting parts of the code base can teach you a lot about where the process is broken. With boring or frustrating projects, there’s often something obvious that can be spotted and fixed if an experienced person takes the time to look at them."

用户评论
五星推荐，这本书是我今年读到的对我而言最有帮助的一本书，强烈推荐给tech公司的技术相关的managers，对于想更好理解自己的career development path的individual contributor也非常有帮助。
非常棒的书！一边读一边可以审视自己哪些做的不足，哪些做得不错。对于未来的管理，也有很多极具价值的建议！
基本上没有任何一句废话的书，比很多所谓领导力的培训实在很多。
实用美国互联网行业管理者指南，适合技术部门管理者阅读。对于程序员来说，了解基本的管理，以及（好的）管理者的心态是怎样的同样也很重要。反过来思考，本书也告诉了你，不好的管理者是怎样的。
这里IT类的管理书确实不多，这本书基本都讲到了，挺不错
虽然名字有manager但从individual contributor到tech lead都可以读！写得很棒，没有废话，几乎每个section都可以应用到实际工作中
step by step guide
读了1/4，感觉读了跟没读过一样。没啥具体内容么！
总结都很到位。怎么处理组员关系如何mentor等等，以前只有些零零散散的意识，这本书把各种问题现象都归纳的很完整。唯一不足的是没有提出很多具体的解决方案和操作方案，但这种类型的问题本来也没有标准答案。
一堆正确的废话，不知道是作者总结能力有问题，还是不敢写。本书的内容比较浅，只适合beginner。
