Upgrade Your Brain with Mental Models
12:40 - 13:10, 21st of May (Thursday) 2026 / R&D & Cybersec
The way I solve problems changed when I got promoted from an engineer to a manager.
When I was an engineer, things were much easier. I could run tests, keep good test coverage, and, in general, sleep better at night.
As managers, we cannot test our decisions the same way. But there is one thing we can do. We can use mental models to help us prevent huge mistakes.
I call these thinking power-ups. They help change perspectives to make solid decisions and find novel solutions to our problems.
During the session, we will go through proven mental models that apply to engineering leadership to help us make better, structured decisions.
