Today being Halloween, we are soliciting Engineering Leadership Horror Stories. We'd like your scariest, most frightening experiences as an engineering leader.
There are several caveats. Your story must have some edifying or redeeming quality. We are not soliciting gripe fests or posts that just slam coworkers.
Here are some suggestions for what we would like to see. Maybe you were able to take that terrifying situation and transform it into something at least somewhat positive. Or maybe the situation was too far gone to salvage, but you have insights into how to recognize (and prevent) something similar.
Also, because your story may be sensitive, we would welcome anonymous posting. However an anonymous posting will require a lengthier review process. So if you request anonymity, give us a few days to post your submission.
Please email your Engineering Leadership Horror Stories to rlasater@hotmail.com. We accept Word documents, HTML text and simple text files.
And as always, we reserve the right to edit, modify or even not accept proposed posts.
