No. 86 - How are you in the tech lead role?
Hey Tech Leads,
A pretty odd episode for you this morning tech leads. Super curious to know how you got in the role, what you're going to when you boot up in the morning, and what you're looking for. Wish you and I could have done this one 1:1 over coffee.
I mentioned a survey in today's episode. I'll post it at https://techleadcoaching.com/survey. Seriously: really want to know who you are!

Hey Tech Leads,
We're continuing our conversation on having an impact as a tech lead. On Wednesday, we talked about having a bigger impact on the team. Today we're going to talk about having a bigger impact on the technology itself.
This podcast is a place where we can think through some thoughts and be sketchy about stuff. It’s full of hyperbole, half complete thoughts, and other errata. I like to think of you sitting next to me at a coffee shop or happy hour or something. The more polished stuff will be available—same day—on my Substack!
