When it comes to leading a technical team, there are a number of challenges. In this talk, I’ll draw on my experience in building and leading teams of all sizes both within my own agency and at Automattic, and share the lessons I’ve learned over the last 15 years.
Things we’ll talk about:
* Building a culture
* Hiring
* One-on-ones
* Handling personality clashes on your team
* Handling under-performers on your team
* The value of off-sites
And, on the product side:
* Aligning the vision of your team
* Defining projects and shipping code
* The power of process
* Quality control
* Shipping schedules
