How the First Team Principle Saves Leaders Time | Leadership Insights

In this quick leadership insight, I share how investing time with your peer leaders - your "First Team" - can dramatically free up your calendar and make you more effective.

When I was a VP of Engineering, the most transformative leadership approach wasn't about my direct reports — it was about understanding my VP of Product counterpart so well that we could represent each other in meetings. This "First Team" concept is a foundational leadership principle that creates alignment, builds organizational resilience, and gives you back precious time.

Whether you're a new manager or a seasoned executive, understanding where to prioritize your relationships makes all the difference in scaling your impact.
