How to master the four Staff archetypes and elevate your impact

The more we move up the org chart, the less input we'll get from our own managers, and the more we need to expand our range as a leader to be successful.

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, I will share different techniques that help you grow your colleagues to a level where they can do a part of your job. I will explain the difference between delegating, mentoring, and teaching, and demonstrate with examples how little effort it takes to turn your everyday tasks into teaching moments, improving your understanding of your own skills in the process.

In this talk, Daniel will share his four-week onboarding process for engineering leads that emphasizes peopleware, tech leadership, and delivery management.
