    FAQ


    Not Convinced? — We talked it through with Engineering Managers:

    EM: My situation is unique. There is no way you’ll be able to help.

    We can’t argue with that. Every team leader we’ve talked to had different problems. Surprisingly, the solutions are very similar. If you have a specific question, we promise to reply to every single one in less than 2 days.

    EM: I'm busy with real problems, I don't have time for this.

    Yeah, we know. That’s why we ask for only 10 minutes each week, including the exercise. Seriously, you can enjoy the email with the morning coffee.

    EM: How do I know it will really help me?

    Best case scenario: you get better at your job, you are less stressed, your team becomes the best in the company, and you are forever grateful for this amazing course.
    Worst case: you tell us we suck and you get 100% of your money back.

    EM: Those types of courses are full of the same BS.

    Seriously, no BS here. No theoretical knowledge you won't know what to do with. The first time you see some BS, just send a request for the refund.

    EM: I still have a few questions before signing up.
