From Engineer to Technical Manager: A Survival Guide (Udemy.com)

This is a fantastic Course! On a honest note, I took it thinking I am going to learn some political stuffs, but real management is a lot more robust and Frank really shares the best Insights I need. Since my transition to Senior, I noticed a lot of patterns which Frank already addresses it in this course. Thank you Frank!

Excellent course and tips from Frank. The core section containing the survival tips for the new technical manager is valuable. "Think strategically, act tactically", loved the way you explained this and its importance for manager.

Good tips on various issue new managers may face and the course is simple and effective.

As a newer manager, the information is quite helpful. Some of it is redundant and already known, but there are still good tips that can be quite helpful beyond the information itself. For example, the to do list approach to emails and setting up meetings to help with time management. And the flow chart for handling new emails. They give new perspective to how to manage emails.

I gained insights into several areas I had not previously considered thinking as a manager, such as proactively strategising communication ahead of senior management meetings and adopting a broader perspective beyond the team to better understand overall business objectives.

A highly recommended course for engineers transitioning into technical management roles. It provides practical tools and clear examples that help validate good practices while offering useful tips for handling everyday team situations. I found it very valuable for reflecting on my approach and gaining new perspectives on leading more effectively.

It was good match for me this course, acting as a refresher for some topics that I already knew and applied. It's great to have a course like this one, to reminder you whenever is needed, to return to the basics of surviving as a technical manager.

It's cool to see just how many of these values and ways of operating are embodied by my own manager. I look forward to implementing the ones I'm falling short on as I grow in my own new management role. I'm halfway through now and addressing difficult conversations and 1:1 meetings in this course is really helpful. You're right, the people managing part is my challenge as a team lead in engineering.

An amazing course! The instructor explains every concept with clarity and precision, making even the more complex topics easy to understand. The lessons are well structured, and the examples are practical and engaging. I really appreciate how the material builds progressively, helping you solidify what you’ve learned at each step.

Being a new learner of the management, this course really me understand the basics of the management and the trainer talked about some real core values that I should have in me to be a good and successful manager. Thanks again!
