CTO Series: Andrea Goulet On How To Lead with Empathy in Software Development In this special BONUS episode of the CTO Series, Andrea Goulet, an innovative software executive, shares her mission to change the tech industry by making empathy a core technical skill. Andrea's insights reveal how empathy can transform leadership, foster collaboration, and drive success in software development. Through personal stories and practical tips, she illustrates the power of empathy in navigating complex challenges, from aligning mental models to enhancing communication between teams and leaders. Defining Leadership Through Empathy "Empathy isn't just credible in the software industry; it's crucial for innovation and collaboration." Andrea reflects on her journey from a communications background where psychology played a pivotal role, to becoming a software executive who champions empathy. Despite initial skepticism from industry consultants, Andrea stuck to her belief that empathy was essential for success in tech. She shares a transformative experience with Scott Hanselman that highlighted the importance of understanding mental models and developing new communication strategies. This experience solidified her approach to leadership, emphasizing empathy as a vital skill for effective collaboration. "Pause, reappraise, and think before you act – empathy in action is the key to navigating complex interactions in tech." Enhancing Team Dynamics Through Empathy "Developers can be as empathic as business leaders, breaking down traditional communication barriers." Andrea delves into the importance of empathy between teams and their leaders, particularly when dealing with mismatched mental models. She discusses the protocols she has developed based on real-life situations, which prioritize empathy in decision-making and feedback processes. By advocating for her team members and facilitating conversations between executives and developers, Andrea demonstrates how empathy can lead to more effective problem-solving and collaboration. "Facilitate conversations that shift from confrontation to collaboration – empathy is the bridge to solving shared problems." Bridging Communication Gaps in Agile Environments "The communication infrastructure is the 'plumbing' that allows information to flow seamlessly across your organization." Andrea explains how the book Team of Teams by General Stanley McChrystal influenced her understanding of agile methodologies. Struggling with the lingo of Agile, she found clarity in McChrystal's discussion of complex systems and the importance of managing interdependencies. Andrea emphasizes the need for a robust communication infrastructure to ensure that information flows freely within an organization, enabling teams to respond quickly to changing circumstances and align their efforts with broader business goals. "Build communication loops that enable agility – the right infrastructure supports the flow of information and decision-making." [IMAGE HERE] Do you wish you had decades of experience?

In this episode of Maintainable, Robby welcomes Scott Hanselman, VP of Developer Community at Microsoft and host of the Hanselminutes Podcast, to discuss the emotional side of maintainable software. Scott shares his thoughts on fear as a common thread in poorly maintained software, the importance of building a team culture of trust, and how finding a good work-life balance helps create better software.The Role of Fear in Technical DebtScott believes that if you fear the software you work on, it's a tell-tale sign that it has maintainability issues.Technical debt is rooted in fear--either fear of making a change that will break something or fear of being unable to change something when needed.He encourages teams to talk openly about their fears and anxieties regarding the software and to consider what things give them confidence in the codebase.Building a Team Culture of ConfidenceScott emphasizes the importance of empathy in overcoming technical debt and making software more maintainable.Senior engineers and team leads have a responsibility to make junior developers feel safe enough to speak up and ask questions.He advocates for providing new hires with small, achievable tasks to build their confidence and trust in the software.Scott encourages teams to use "inner loop" and "outer loop" thinking.Inner loop - The cycle of making a change, hitting f5, and seeing changes immediately.Outer loop - Things like deploying the codebase, getting it tested, ensuring production stability.Both experienced and junior engineers have their own inner and outer loops as individuals, and continuous improvement at all levels is key.Overcoming Fear, Embracing Maintainability, and Finding BalanceScott shares stories about Microsoft's journey with open-source software and how that process has shaped the company's culture around maintainable code.He talks about the importance of striking a balance between source-opened and open-source software and finding the sweet spot for a project or organization.Scott warns against the trap of striving for unattainable perfection. Aiming for good, solid repeatable work over perfection ultimately yields better results.He uses his own projects, like the Hanselminutes podcast, as examples of focusing on consistent outputs and utilizing a simple workflow.Scott advocates for using AI tools to transcribe coding sessions, freeing up developers from extensive note-taking.Book Recommendation:The Daily Stoic By Ryan HolidayScott Hanselman - Personal WebsiteHanselminutes Podcast.NET Open Source History: .NET Core | Microsoft LearnHelpful Links:Scott Hanselman - Personal WebsiteHanselminutes Podcast.NET Open Source History: .NET Core | Microsoft LearnThanks to Our Sponsor!Turn hours of debugging into just minutes!

In this episode of ACM ByteCast, our special guest host Scott Hanselman (of The Hanselminutes Podcast) welcomes ACM Fellow Juan Gilbert, the Andrew Banks Family Preeminence Endowed Professor and Chair of the Computer & Information Science & Engineering Department at the University of Florida where he leads the Computing for Social Good Lab. The lab's innovations include open-source voting technology to help make elections more secure, accessible, and usable; making voting technologies more transparent; increasing fairness and reducing bias in ML algorithms used in admissions and hiring decisions; and reducing conflicts during traffic stops. Gilbert's many honors and recognitions include the Presidential Award for Excellence in Science, Mathematics, and Engineering Mentoring, the CRA A. Nico Habermann Award, and the National Medal of Technology and Innovation (NMTI). Juan shares with Scott his surprise at being nominated for the NMTI, which he received in 2023 from President Joe Biden for pioneering a universal voting system that makes voting more reliable and accessible for everyone and for increasing diversity in the computer science workforce. He talks about his lab's mission to change the world by solving real-world problems, and principles such as “barrier-free design” that he and his collaborators applied to his lab's voting machine technology. They also discuss how his Application Quest (AQ) technology uses AI to help make fairer hiring decisions, and how his students' Virtual Traffic Stops app helps protect both drivers and law enforcement safe during traffic stops. Juan also explains how he and his lab choose which projects they work on and teases the promise of brain-computer interaction technology.
