Unlocking performance management for start-ups and scale-ups

Matan Kubovsky presents the 'engineering boost' framework based on the formula 'Team performance = f(results, behaviors)' to help engineering leaders track and improve team performance as they scale from 10 to 50+ engineers. The framework involves defining 5-6 core results and behaviors for each role, tracking them over time using spreadsheets, and using trend analysis to provide targeted feedback. Engineering leaders will learn why performance measurement becomes critical at scale, how to implement systematic tracking without creating rigid scoring systems, and how to handle resistance during feedback conversations by being sensitive, showing empathy, ensuring consistency, and focusing on growth opportunities rather than criticism.
