What is the Fix the Monthly Stakeholder Engineering course about?

Every month, engineering leaders like Eric pull data from Jira, GitHub, CI/CD logs, and project trackers to build a unified progress report. But without a standardized system, this becomes a 12-hour cycle of manual exports, spreadsheet errors, last-minute fixes, and stakeholder pushback. The process is fragile, time-consuming, and distracts from actual leadership. Even worse, when questions come in, there's no audit trail.

The situation this course is for

Every month, engineering leaders like Eric pull data from Jira, GitHub, CI/CD logs, and project trackers to build a unified progress report. But without a standardized system, this becomes a 12-hour cycle of manual exports, spreadsheet errors, last-minute fixes, and stakeholder pushback. The process is fragile, time-consuming, and distracts from actual leadership. Even worse, when questions come in, there's no audit trail , just tribal knowledge and memory. This isn’t about data literacy; it’s about operational inefficiency in a recurring deliverable that defines leadership credibility.

Who this is for

Director+ engineering leaders in fast-scaling tech companies who own recurring cross-functional reporting but lack a systematized, trustworthy process

Who this is not for

Individual contributors, IC managers with no reporting duties, or leaders who already use automated, version-controlled reporting pipelines

What you walk away with

  • A repeatable 90-minute monthly reporting workflow
  • A single source of truth template that auto-ingests key engineering metrics
  • Stakeholder-approved report structure with built-in variance explanations
  • An audit-ready archive system for all monthly outputs
  • Confidence to delegate report assembly without quality loss
