On Being an Engineering Manager
I manage a team that do what could broadly be described as data science, here is one thing I feel unsure about and I'd like others' opinion on:<p>How much should I tell my team about what's going on above me? If my manager tells me about a customer meeting where they request a demo with certain broad requirements by a certain deadline. Should I go into the details of the overall business goal of the client and the exact deadline for the final demo? Or should I just delegate specific subtasks and keep the information structure within my team somewhat modular/encapsualted?
