About Michael Greenspan
Seven years as a software engineer. Nine years as an engineering manager.
Today I work privately with a small number of software engineers and tech leaders. The work is reflective rather than tactical — a slower kind of conversation than the ones already crowding their calendar.
Most of the people I speak with aren’t lacking effort or intelligence. They’re dealing with pressure, constant thinking, and ambiguity that makes simple tasks feel strangely impossible.
Based in Toronto.
