How to Manage and Grow Your Dev Team
I'll be hosting a round-table on managing dev teams at indydevs 10/10. Software dev management is an extremely hard task, requiring both technical expertise well as handling different personalities, skills, and growth arcs. Share your thoughts - how can we be better software managers? How can we help our employees not just deliver, but also grow, as professionals and as people?

זה נראה פצצה. אני יודע שנדבר על זה באירוע, אבל תני כמה טיפים למנהל מתחיל - איך להתחיל לחשוב על פיתוח אישי של חברי הצוות?

What do do if your engineers don't really want to grow ;-)

so what do they do instead? standing in the same place means (for me) exactly the opposite of growth.

I totally agree! but it is easier to have a good mentor on your professional journey who can assist you in achieving that faster and easier. what do you think? IMHO - I think that as part of manager growth, it is one of the important responsibilities areas that a manager should take care of as part of his/her professional progress.

i would have loved to join, because i have many years of good experience growing teams, but i'm at another table at this hour.... i multi-tasking allowed? perhaps co-routines/green-threads like concurrency ? or traditional OS level threads? ;-)

As a developer I would like to know what managers actually does to grow a developer, especially a Senior. What it means in the day to day? This topic is spoken a lot but in my personal experience I never felt my manager is trying to help me grow.

this is a good point. thank you! Can you please share? what is growth from your POV? What do you expect from your manager(s) to do and they don't? what is YOUR PERSONAL code that drives you to look forward and make progress?
