The Manager's Path
A Guide for Tech Leaders Navigating Growth and Change
A stage-by-stage map from engineer to technical executive.
Camille Fournier walks through each step of the technical leadership ladder, from mentoring and tech lead to manager, director, and CTO. Each chapter gives practical, situational advice for the responsibilities and pitfalls at that level. It is a hands-on guide grounded in her own path through engineering organizations.
Founders often become accidental managers, then accidental executives, without a model for either. Fournier gives a clear picture of what each leadership level actually requires, helping a founder grow into the role or hire well for it.
