I’ve felt that leadership roles at tech companies tend to converge around the same goal, “make software happen.” Different roles have different expertise in that goal but that’s what they’re here for. That doesn’t mean, “write all the software yourself,” it’s about using all the skills at your disposal to advance the team’s mission.

I’ve jokingly used the example with my own management, “I’d plunge the toilets if they were backed up and became our biggest issue.”
