Minangka senyor engineer, akeh banget impact sampeyan teka saka nyebat keputusan lan nyurung perubahan — nggawake konsensus, nggawe kasus kanggo ide-ide, lan ngajak wong-wong. Iki butuh luwih saka bener saka segi teknis; iki butuh persuasi, komunikasi, lan pamahaman babagan wong-wong.
Pengaruh tanpa kewenangan
Senior engineers often lack formal authority but need to drive technical decisions:
→ INFLUENCE through expertise, trust, reasoning, and relationships (not commands)
→ being RIGHT isn't enough → you must PERSUADE and bring people along
→ "How do I get the team/org to adopt this / make this decision?"
→ influence is a key senior skill (impact through others, not just your own work).
