I was really grateful to have Tom Ridge join me for a deep, honest conversation about leadership, agile delivery, and what it really takes to help engineering teams succeed.
Tom shared how his team turned things around after projects fell behind schedule -- using data, reducing scope, and applying Little’s Law to make forecasting less about guesses and more about measurable flow. We also dug into the human side of engineering: having difficult conversations, building psychological safety, and creating team environments where people feel supported instead of pressured.
