LeadDev New York 2023 testimonials
"I really liked the sharing of real experiences shared by speakers and other attendees. I especially got a lot of use out of the insights in the shift from being an IC to a manager."
"It was much more than I expected. I met very thoughtful people and each talk contained something actionable."
"Today really focused on leadership and their teams. I was able to speak with people that are having a lot of the same issues that I had. I felt like the “forced” collaboration was great."
