Is your personality a match for Engineering Leadership?
Hey friend,
Can you believe that this week is the start of JUNE? It's wild.
It almost feels like the year is slipping away.
Imagine that you spent a lot of time and effort creating a product. And now that product is being loved by so many.
It still gives me goosebumps 😊.
After launching Developer to Leader, I have close to 100 people 💖 that signed up, and I couldn't be more excited. The feedback has been excellent, and folks are enjoying the course.
The folks who signed up are fantastic humans and genuinely want to grow together. I cannot wait to share more about how the community has evolved.
But, overall, thank you for bearing with me while I promoted Developer to Leader 🙌. This was my first official big launch, and I couldn't be more thankful to all of you for being patient with me.
I also took the month of May to travel to San Francisco, Copenhagen, Krakow, and Portland and speak at 3 different conferences. Talking to people IRL and connecting with others is one of the best things ever.
You can check out this Youtube Playlist with all my talks, including 1 recent one.
Anyway, I'm back, and now, let's move on to our weekly shenanigans.
