I've heard this concern in recent conversations, especially from EMs navigating AI.

Spotted the first yellow buds on my walk this morning. Still very cold outside, but there they were - yellow tips pushing through the ground. Really enjoyed the sunshine though. These moments between seasons always catch my eye. #EngineeringManagers #EngineeringManagerCoach #TechLeadership #Spring
