Hey All! My name is Mahesh Guruswamy, and I am a Product Development leader. I am currently the Chief Product and Technology Officer at Kickstarter. Previously, I was in various executive leadership roles at Kajabi, Smartsheet, Amazon, Fidelity Investments, and others. I am passionate about growing individual contributors into managers and managers into executives.

Most management books and coaches focus on teaching the easy parts. There are thousands of books and online material on how to be a servant leader, motivate people, etc. This newsletter is not about that. It is about mastering the most complicated parts of being a manager. How do you deliver bad news to your team? How do you deliver bad news to your stakeholders? How to let somebody go? How to give your boss critical feedback and survive? If you are intrigued, subscribe!
