• Smooth Transitions in Challenging Times: Understand the intricacies of leading through team mergers, takeovers, or layoffs, and learn how to handle these situations with tact and empathy.

This meetup isn't just about learning; it's an opportunity to connect with peers facing similar challenges. It's a platform for sharing experiences, strategies, and forging connections that help navigate the ever-evolving landscape of engineering management.
