These topics will be a deeper dive into the management of Architecture teams, and on this episode we're talking about Goal and Objective setting. We discuss the challenges associated with setting objectives for architects, about "soft skills" versus "hard skills", and discuss ways to cascade and monitor goals across the team.

Field notes is a slightly shorter, more conversational format - we hope you enjoy it!
