Some days ago, a friend of mine asked “How to become a good technical LEADER?”
The transition from developer to a technical leader position is a challenging moment…
I remember how much I struggled when I went through it.
During the process I’ve learned three precious actions that helped to improve myself and become a better leader for my team.
- Focus on the real problem to make better tradeoffs
- Understand my team strengths to boost their potential
- Experience our application end-user routine to gather valuable insights
Keeping these actions in mind helped me to become a better leader for my team and focus on what matters.
How about you? Have you learned other ways to become a better technical leader?
Share with us! I’ll be happy to listen different ideas =)
