summary

Key concrete moves: lead tech due diligence and integrate product teams during acquisitions (one failed integration teaches adapt communication), run a monthly all-engineer demo meeting to show customer impact, set cross-functional product review cadences, use your team's products, and follow one rule: don't send email while mad.
