Presentation

Summary:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome, new manager! Now... panic? ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

I know that feeling of dread before that first 1:1 meeting or the static noise in your head while writing your first performance review. Managing people is a hard job and utterly different from the one youโ€™re so good at.

In this short primer to management, youโ€™ll get the support you need to kickstart your journey.

This talk will help you:

  • Understand the difference between management and leadership
  • Acknowledge all the changes management brings for individual contributors
  • Reflect on open-ended questions to help you prepare for the switch
  • Avoid typical โ€œnewbie managerโ€ mistakes
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meetup will also have live streaming via Zoom for those who won't be able to join in-person.

Zoom URL will be shared just before the meetup starts.

๐ŸŽ During our meetup four (4) JetBrains licenses will be raffled to the participants!

Pizzas, beers and... socialising!
At the end of the meetup we will have the opportunity to discuss and socialise with some pizzas and beers! ๐Ÿ• ๐Ÿบ
