Everything you need to deliver a better developer experience
As a programmer, your job is complex and challenging every day. Your brain constantly races to solve problems, identify patterns, and find solutions faster.
Though most of the focus in tech revolves around technical skills, soft skills can significantly impact your career. It’s not just what you know but how you work with others that makes a big difference.
Technical leadership combines leadership skills with technical expertise to not only further and enhance your own technical abilities but also help develop the team around you to attain technical excellence.
