That was a very interesting conference, lots to learn and new encounters. The R&E community doesn’t face the same challenges as the general tech industry. But I think sharing more experience between the two would be useful.

Keep an eye on the presentations when they’ll be published. A lot of them are worth watching. The conference value lies in the networking though.

Changing context can be useful sometimes. Let’s see what there is to learn here.

For #LeadDev I wrote about creating Technical Visions for projects or organizations that are compelling and meaningful to team members https://leaddev.com/technical-direction/clear-technical-vision-is-the-key-for-aligned-growth
Clear technical vision is the key for aligned growth

Technical visions are the guardrails that keep decision-making aligned across orgs.

This week, I heard it was mentioned by Shaun Lewis from O’Reilly Media in a #LeadDev session on measuring performance in teams.

Later, someone told me Giffgaff had been talking about it too when discussing team morale.

It stopped me for a second. Not in a “look what I built” way, more in a “this is actually landing with people” way.

@ramsey As so many eng leads (including @hazelweakly who I am only tagging to say thank you & you were great!) said at #LeadDev this week: Data can lie. 😅 They keep trying the same thing and expecting new results. I have questions where the truth actually is on this one. 🤓

Reflecting on an incredible experience speaking at @TheLeadDev's #LDX3 conference last week! Very grateful to have been accepted as a speaker and for the amazing support throughout.

I enjoyed discussing challenges growing teams in the era of layoffs, and hopeful that my talk can provide some inspiration by treating teaching as a core engineering skill, applying lessons from pedagogy.
