The Iceberg Theory of Engineering Management
Abstract
Overconfidence kills, figuratively and literally. Have you ever felt like the bosses seem to be constantly steering the boat into collision course with their half-baked decisions and ridiculous trains of thought? Are they suicidal, stupid, or maybe both? Rest assured that they know what they’re doing. In this chapter, we dive deep into what makes them behave that way and brainstorm what it may take to make it stop.
