“That’s not good enough”
That was Larene’s response to when Damian told her “you’re doing a great job, keep doing what you’re doing”.
This talk is about the journey of a grizzled industry veteran and a young ambitious engineer thrown together in a small startup environment.
Forced to establish fast feedback cycle, not just iterating on the product we were developing, but also how we worked on it together. We were both pushed out of our comfort zones to create a productive collaboration.
We’ve distilled some of our lessons from this process into a handful of tools you can apply straight away, whether you’re seeking mentoring, or are in a tech leadership/manager position.
We’ll share how we give and receive feedback, how mentors can grow the technical skills of more junior people, how men can mentor women more effectively, and how even the most hardened “seen it all” of us can grow individually.
