Having coached technical managers in technology and engineering companies for a decade, I've noticed several consistent leadership skills gaps that limit team performance. Recently, I shared the details in this article.
Yet, there are also two main personality types/leadership styles that tend to show up in technical management.
?? The stronger “Driver” style is excellent at getting results but can burn teams out and lose top talent.
?? The softer “Accepting” style is excellent at maintaining team cohesion but can lack urgency and accountability.
If the leader is unaware of how their personality/style negatively impacts others, the common leadership gaps can get magnified, impacting their promotion potential.
Have you seen these common leadership gaps/styles in technical managers as well?
