Taking the Management Leap

Please log in to watch this conference skillscast.

You’ve been working in tech for a long time, and you’re really good at what you do. Inevitably, at some stage the Question creeps in: “Is this the time in my career when I’m supposed to go into ‘management’?” What do managers even do all day? How do you know if you’d be any good at it–or more importantly–like it? A few years ago, I decided to make the jump and ended up in charge of a team of 20. I’ll walk you through the lessons I learned, the skills you’ll need, and the successes and failures I had along the way. (Spoiler: it’s a bigger leap than you think.)
