How Do Effective Engineering Leaders Help Their Teams Achieve More?

3 questions engineering leaders ask to increase the impact of their team without burning the midnight oil:

2. Can I optimize/shortcut some part of this project?
3. Can I propose scope reductions for this project?

Rachel also talks about the iron triangle often used for project management (time, scope, cost).
