Secrets of successful mentoring
1 like63 views
Daniel Irvine presented at DevConf 2018 on secrets of successful mentoring. He explained that traditionally mentoring focuses too much on technical skills transfer rather than an equal partnership. A mentor should not act as a manager but as an equal partner, listening without judgment and providing constructive feedback. If mentoring embraced qualities like psychological safety, humility, advocacy and equality, it could create a more collaborative development culture where knowledge sharing is the norm.

Moneysupermarket Technology has been going through an exciting transformation. Following the completion of our new platform, we have started to reinvent the way we work. In this case study, we will talk about the journey we are undertaking as we transform Moneysupermarket to a product engineering culture. We will identify what worked well and what we achieved with our previous culture and ways of working, but also what we strive to improve and achieve by evolving our product engineering capability.
We will give our definition of product engineering culture and what we are doing to achieve it. We are bringing more of our engineering capability in-house, which means finding the right people to join existing teams or start new teams from scratch. We have experimented with different team compositions, leadership styles and coaching approaches. We have iterated on our technology stack, tooling and ways of working to make sure we provide a product engineering culture that retains and attracts talented individuals, and engages them in building great products for our customers.Mentor development

Technical excellence, meaning e.g. quality code, sound architecture, good test automation and coverage, continuous integration and continuous deployment, is the pre-requisite of sustainable software development. Sustainability of software development is essential for improving the Return On Investment and extending the life cycle of software products and services.
In my talk I will explain why the majority of organizations is still not making effective management decisions to ensure they get technical excellence.
I will argue that technical excellence is impossible to buy from a software vendor and impossible to enforce in contractual terms.
The other side to this subject is my second argument: the only way to ensure technical excellence is to have a skilled and motivated team that takes responsible of it, and giving that team the responsibility and means to ensure technical excellence
I will go over my personal experiences relating to management decisions regarding technical excellence and illustrate the thinking that is behind the ineffective decision-making related to technical excellence.
In conclusion, I will describe what kind of change of mindset is required for making effective management decisions regarding technical excellence.

The document discusses the implementation of DevOps in small, medium, and large enterprises. In small and medium enterprises, DevOps allows for more agile delivery but often faces challenges of manual deployments and lack of engineering practices. As enterprises grow larger, they struggle to implement DevOps effectively when viewing it simply as tools or separate from Agile. The document argues that DevOps succeeds in large enterprises by adopting a holistic delivery model, dual operating systems, and viewing IT as engineering with a focus on flow and scale. It is a journey that requires experimenting with frameworks and improving processes continuously.Intro to Courageous Conversations - Creating Powerful Conversations to Achie...

Team success depends on balancing autonomy with responsiveness to external factors, rather than solely on hiring stars. Effective teams clearly define goals and roles, communicate well, and foster collaboration, trust and accountability among diverse members. Lack of these traits can lead to quality issues, as seen in the example of tester "Joe" working in isolation without support. Building high-performing teams requires ongoing focus on processes, relationships and adapting to change through lessons learned.Organizational Pillar Series 2

The document discusses the concept of Agile as a mindset rather than just practices. It explains that Agile is established through four values, grounded by twelve principles, and manifested through many practices. True adoption of Agile requires internalizing the mindset and being able to tailor practices appropriately based on situations, rather than just doing the practices without understanding the underlying philosophy.Creating Actionable SEO Deliverables & Getting Things Done - Dave Rohrer, Nor...

Webinar: LF Energy GEISA: Addressing edge interoperability at the meterDanBrown980551
油
This webinar will introduce the Grid Edge Security and Interoperability Alliance, or GEISA, an effort within LF Energy to address application interoperability at the very edge of the utility network: meters and other distribution automation devices. Over the last decade platform manufacturers have introduced the ability to run applications on electricity meters and other edge devices. Unfortunately, while many of these efforts have been built on Linux, they havent been interoperable. APIs and execution environment have varied from one manufacturer to the next making it impossible for utilities to obtain applications that they can run across a fleet of different devices. For utilities that want to minimize their supply chain risk by obtaining equipment from multiple suppliers, they are forced to run and maintain multiple separate management systems. Applications available for one device may need to be ported to run on another, or they may not be available at all.
GEISA addresses this by creating a vendor neutral specification for utility edge computing environments. This webinar will discuss why GEISA is important to utilities, the specific issues GEISA will solve and the new opportunities it creates for utilities, platform vendors, and application vendors.
