There’s a saying that people don’t leave companies, they leave managers. Management is a key part of any organization, yet the discipline is often self-taught and unstructured. Getting to the good solutions for complex management challenges can make the difference between fulfillment and frustration for teams—and, ultimately, between the success and failure of companies. Will Larson’s An Elegant Puzzle focuses on the particular challenges of engineering management—from sizing teams to handling technical debt to performing succession planning—and provides a path to the good solutions. Drawing from his experience at Digg, Uber, and Stripe, Larson has developed a thoughtful approach to engineering management for leaders of all levels at companies of all sizes. An Elegant Puzzle balances structured principles and human-centric thinking to help any leader create more effective and rewarding organizations for engineers to thrive in. 1 Introduction 2 Organizations2.1 Sizing teams2.2 Staying on the path to high-performing teams2.3 A case against top-down global optimization2.4 Productivity in the age of hypergrowth2.5 Where to stash your organizational risk?2.6 Succession planning3 Tools3.1 Introduction to systems thinking3.2 Product management: exploration, selection, validation3.3 Visions and strategies3.4 Metrics and baselines3.5 Guiding broad organizational change with metrics3.6 Migrations: the sole scalable fix to tech debt3.7 Running an engineering reorg3.8 Identify your controls3.9 Career narratives3.10 The briefest of media trainings3.11 Model, document, and share3.12 Scaling consistency: designing centralized decision-making groups3.13 Presenting to senior leadership3.14 Time management3.15 Communities of learning4 Approaches4.1 Work the policy, not the exceptions4.2 Saying no4.3 Your philosophy of management4.4 Managing in the growth plates4.5 Ways engineering managers get stuck4.6 Partnering with your manager4.7 Finding managerial scope4.8 Setting organizational direction4.9 Close out, solve, or delegate5 Culture5.1 Opportunity and membership5.2 Select project leads5.3 Make your peers your first team5.4 Consider the team you have for senior positions5.5 Company culture and managing freedoms5.6 Kill your heroes, stop doing it harder6 Careers6.1 Roles over rocket ships, and why hypergrowth is a weak6.2 Running a humane interview process6.3 Cold sourcing: hire someone you don’t know6.4 Hiring funnel6.5 Performance management systems6.6 Career levels, designation momentum, level splits, etc.6.7 Creating specialized roles, like SRE or TPM6.8 Designing an interview loop7 Appendix7.1 Tools for operating a growing organization7.2 Books I’ve found very useful7.3 Papers I’ve found very useful MANAGEMENT TRACK RECORD: Will Larson is a longtime senior engineering leader at tech s Digg, Uber, Stripe, and Calm.
