Do Repeat Yourself. How to move from Development into Leadership
Mobile Stage — 30 minutes Mobile
As a developer moving into a leadership role for the first time it can be can be tough, confusing, and at times overwhelming. This was certainly the case for me. I discovered that the principles I had once followed when building software were no longer effective as a leader. However, after a few years I can confidently say that becoming a leader is one of the most fulfilling things I've done. In this talk you will learn some of the ways to adapt your developer skillset to that of a tech lead, and I will share my observations in making these adjustments myself. We'll look at how the problems you need to solve are suddenly very unfamiliar, with intensives that are often the reverse to what you've been used to. If you've had similar experiences or are considering a move into leadership yourself, this talk is for you. You will leave with a number of effective strategies for becoming a tech lead, while remaining kind to yourself and others.
