REFACTOR: From Individual Contributor to Team Leader (A Practical Guide)

Finally promoted to team leader? Didn't exactly volunteer for the job?

You're not alone. Most engineers are pushed into leadership roles without warning, training, or even desire. One day you're analyzing test results, and the next you're troubleshooting people's issues.

This book gets it. Written specifically for engineers who find themselves managing teams without a clear roadmap, it cuts through management theory and offers practical frameworks that you can apply.

What you'll get:

• The REFACTOR framework for transitioning without losing your technical identity
• Practical templates for 1-on-1s, feedback, and team dynamics
• How to preserve your engineering skills while developing leadership abilities
• Real strategies for managing former peers and impostor syndrome
• Actionable advice you can read Sunday night and apply Monday morning

Perfect for: Engineers managing 2 to 8 people at mid-sized companies who feel like they are making it up as they go.
