Ebi Atawodi, Director at YouTube Studio, shares strategies from Uber and Netflix on building strong product-engineering partnerships, fostering trust, and unlocking team innovation.
What a great episode. I'm fully aligned with Ebi about the unpopular idea of not "protecting" our teams. That "umbrella/shield" creates an "we" (engineering) vs "them" (product/business) culture, which is not good at all.
Leaders, it's time to "Close the Umbrella" (that's literally the title of the article I wrote about this topic).

Thanks for this one. Ebi's energy is great and there's a lot of great learnings, independently of the company size you're in.
