Leading the App Tribe as Engineering Manager of two cross-functional teams (15 people, QA, Backend, Frontend), I introduced DORA Metrics and Continuous Delivery practices and significantly improved cycle time. I align engineering efforts with the company goals and introduced OKRs to measure progress and steer team objectives on a strategic level. In recent years, my approach as a strategic leader has been shaped by several key books. "Accelerate" helped us improve our DevOps practices and speed up our project deliveries.
Inspired by "Inspired," we've focused more on understanding and meeting customer needs with our products. "Team Topologies" guided us in restructuring teams for better collaboration and efficiency. "Good Strategy / Bad Strategy" clarified our strategic goals and how to achieve them effectively. Implementing OKRs, inspired by "Measure What Matters," has allowed us to track progress and drive consistent improvements. These books have significantly influenced my leadership style and our team's success.
