As developer-leaders, we spend a lot of time learning how to influence and make friends, but not much talking about what to do when that’s not working, or organizational immunity activates.
In this session Amy will talk about her experiences as a change agent and what she learned about how to do it sustainably, even when the change ahead is drastic.
Learn a humane approach to managing underperforming team members, with strategies for setting expectations, providing direct feedback, fostering growth, and handling tough conversations with compassion.
In this talk, we will detail our experiences as Staff Engineers functioning as Tech Leads, Glues and Facilitators in a leaderless role. We’ll discuss the real-world problems we faced, our solutions, and the lessons learned that allowed us to grow as leaders and as an organisation.
In this talk, Hywel will discuss the skills needed as engineers progress on different career paths (both technical leadership and people management), and how they can be learned outside the ‘production environment’ of the team.
In this talk, I will go through some of the common incentives and motivators as well as real examples that I’ve encountered.
