Talk Description
It has been a year since I made the transition from an individual contributor to a people manager and in this talk, I want to share key lessons that I learned as a new Quality Engineering Manager.
The session aims to provide guidance to individuals thinking of becoming a people manager.
I'll be talking about what has worked well with my direct reports, what hasn't worked well and an overall reflection of how I made relationships with my direct reports all while working remotely.
What you’ll learn
By the end of this talk, you'll be able to:
- Learned what skills you would need as a People Manager
- Understand why leading with empathy and kindness is important
- How to deal with difficult conversations
- Learned what further resources such as books and podcasts can help you with your management journey
