About this listen
In this conversation, Chris Stasiuk explores the challenges engineers face regarding certainty and communication as they progress in their careers. He discusses how early in their careers, engineers are rewarded for being decisive and having strong opinions, but as they advance, the nature of problems becomes more complex and involves collaboration. Stasiuk emphasizes the importance of leading with reasoning rather than conclusions to foster trust and engagement in discussions. He also touches on the pitfalls of becoming indispensable and how it can lead to a performance trap.
Re:Engineered is a podcast for engineers and technical professionals navigating the shift from technical excellence to leadership responsibility.
Hosted by Chris Stasiuk, a professional engineer with over 25 years in engineering consulting and leadership roles, the show treats leadership, communication, and decision-making as systems to understand — not personality traits to fake. No buzzwords. No corporate theater. Just clear thinking about how technical people actually lead.
