"At the heart of my changes was a theme of trust. By trusting that I didn’t have to know everything to be effective I could be more confident"

My favorite bit I’ve been doing recently is pretending that my wife is a Twitch streamer who streams “working on spreadsheets” so whenever I see her with a spreadsheet open I go “what’s up chat! 50 subscribes and I add a pivot table” etc. She loves it, as you can imagine.

Excited to share that I’m going back to Lead Dev Berlin in December to talk about decision making in leadership, woop!
I’d like to do some research: what’s the best talk that you’ve ever seen? I’m keen to see examples of great talks, so I can learn and make this one even better than last time 🥰
