You know what to do. You just can’t get yourself to do it. That gap isn’t a discipline problem — it’s a belief problem hiding in your unconscious. Tim Shurr joins Zach to unpack why smart engineering leaders stay stuck, and how to rewire the beliefs quietly running your career.
Authentic engineering leadership isn’t soft — it’s how Erin Hatzikostas tripled earnings, won the talent war, and skipped the executive club tax.
