Ops vs Dev
Situational Leadership gets into this. You want a really efficient McDonalds worker who follows the established procedure to make a Big Mac. You also want a really creative designer to build your Big Mac marketing campaign. Your job as a manager is figuring out which you need, and fitting the right person into the right job.
- abustamam 9mo agoAgreed. Meanwhile, many job postings out there looking for 10x full-stack developers who have deep experience in database, server, front end, devops, etc. I think the concept of Full-stack dev is fine, but expecting them to know each part of the stack deeply isn't feasible imo.
- theshrike79 9mo agoExpert Generalists are a thing: https://martinfowler.com/articles/expert-generalist.html https://martinfowler.com/articles/expert-generalist.html BUT they're completely wasted if you just use them to turn JIRA tickets into end to end features =)
- abustamam 9mo agoHaha agreed. Thanks for the link, will give it a read. I feel like expert generalists should be founders or CTOS, and they are probably not applying for the positions that claim to be wanting expert generalists.
