Agile and Leadership – Turn the Ship Around
A leader-follower team has one head telling others what to do. But a great team works with Leader-Leader behavior: you don’t have to be the leader to say how things should be done, and if you say it right (and your leader has your trust), your will be the one guiding the ship.

Your Job Is Not to Write Code
Dear developers, we know that you love to write code. But this is only a small part of your job, as you need to check that your code works, that it does what it should do. You’ll also be fighting against working with many build, test, or deploy infrastructures that you need to learn and understand. And you need to think what stupid unexpected user behaviors you must handle. And so much more! So yes, you won’t be coding that much… maybe now is a good time to start crying.
