Examining engineering management strategies to foster psychological safety and resilience, designing for failure to improve software quality and team well-being.

Waking up to on-call pings from ski lifts and red-eye flights makes a good war story—but it’s not strength, it’s unmanaged risk. In this talk, Sarah shows engineering managers can replace panic with psychological safety and resilience.
