Nous nous accordons tous pour dire qu'il y a un avant et un après Covid. Les salariés ont gagné en flexibilité et la productivité s'est accrue, même en période de stress ! Et ce, grâce à l'instauration forcée du télétravail. C'est un gros challenge pour le manager, puisqu'il doit fédérer son équipe et faire avancer les projets.    Pour notre invité, la clef pour une organisation hybride qui fonctionne, c'est le management à la confiance. Fini le micro-management qui épuise le manager et agace les différents collaborateurs ! Mais cela suppose également des changements au niveau des processus de recrutement.  L'invitée : Baptiste Bénézet est le cofondateur de Team Bakery, une entreprise qui fabrique des box pour accompagner au mieux managers et collaborateurs. Aujourd'hui, ils accompagnent 30% des entreprises du CAC40. Il est également l'host du podcast Learning by Doing, le podcast qui propose d'explorer les enjeux de l'apprentissage au sens large.

Oscillating between the roles of individual contributor and management has been a recurring theme on this show. Our guest today, Rich Lafferty, has some special insights into this pattern that can help anyone looking to improve their work. Rich works as a Staff Site Reliability Engineer at PagerDuty and has spent many years interfacing with various departments and building projects and proposals. In our conversation with Rich, we discuss how his past roles have informed his work at PagerDuty and how he gets the most out of his teams without exploiting the authority that comes with his more senior role. We delve into Rich's process for building proposals and learn some of his tips and tricks for ensuring the best possible outcome by investing in the foundation and design phase. We also explore the importance of early feedback, why you need to include a diverse group of individuals, and how to gradually grow your feedback group. Tune in as we discuss everything from risk management to high and low context culture, and much more!LinksRich LaffertyBeing GlueBehind Human ErrorThe Manager's Path: A Guide for Tech Leaders Navigating Growth and ChangeJohn Allspaw

Alan Cohen (@proto2product) wrote a great book about taking an idea and making it into a product. We spoke with him about the development process and the eleven deadly sins of product development. We did not talk about ultra-precise death rays. Books we discussed: Alan's Prototype to Product: A Practical Guide for Getting to Market Elecia's Making Embedded Systems The Mythical Man-Month, Anniversary Edition: Essays On Software Engineering by Frederick P. Brooks Jr.   The Manager's Path: A Guide for Tech Leaders Navigating Growth and Change by Camille Fournier Alan mentioned writing software graphically with Enterprise Architect

In Season 2, Episode 1 of Lead Time Chats, Jean Hsu, VP of Engineering at Range, talks to Camille Fournier, Managing Director of Two Sigma and author of The Manager's Path, about boring stuff — specifically building boring tech and making boring plans. Camille and Jean discuss: Limited innovation tokens and how to decide where to spend them (hint: it's not on cool tech)! What boring plans actually look like, especially when you do need to upgrade to more interesting tech so your team doesn't fall behind. Rolling out company-wide platform updates as rigorously as you would plan for an external launch How to manage up and build credibility that you're delivery value when undertaking long-running technical projectsAdditional Resources: The Manager's Path: A Guide for Tech Leaders Navigating Growth and Change  Make Boring Plans by Camille FournierChoose Boring Technology by Dan McKinley

For Christmas week 2020, we have a special treat for you. Yves Hanoulle and I interview great Agilists and Scrum Masters that you will probably not hear from in your local Agile conference.  These are people that are really pushing the state of the practice, and we want to bring their forward-looking, and hopeful ideas to you in our Christmas Special Week for 2020.    Katrina is the author of A Practical Guide to Testing in DevOps, a book that offers direction and advice relevant to anyone involved in testing in a DevOps environment.   She started her Agile transition after a long stint within a waterfall organization, and she shares some of the most contrasting changes she experienced when moving to an Agile organization. Ultimately, she reminds us, the Agile approach is much closer to the final purpose: solving a problem for a customer out there. And she reminds us that we should try to keep that purpose front and center at all times.  Learning to be persuasive: a key lesson for Scrum Masters and all agile practitioners When we dive into Katrina’s most important lesson learned in her Agile journey, we discuss the need to bring our best persuasive game with us. We discuss some of the reasons why the ability to persuade others is so important, for example testers will often be outnumbered in an Agile team, and their ideas are less likely to be followed if they can’t “bring others along”. In this segment, we refer to a key book for all wanting to learn more about influencing colleagues and building collaborative relationships: How To Win Friends And Influence People by Dale Carnegie. Books for Agilists and Agile leaders The books that Katrina chose to recommend remind us that often we need to express our leadership abilities, and we can do that only if we cultivate those through reading and practice. We talk about Lara Hogan’s Resilient Management, The Manager's Path: A Guide for Tech Leaders Navigating Growth and Change by Camille Fournier, and Accelerate by Nicole Forsgren et al.    About Katrina Clokie Katrina is an accomplished and experienced IT leader. She is a regular keynote at international conferences where the main themes include leadership, knowledge sharing, and communicating change. In 2017 Katrina published her first book, A Practical Guide to Testing in DevOps. Katrina was a finalist for the Inspiring Individual of the Year Award at the 2018 New Zealand Hi-Tech Awards. You can link with Katrina Clokie on LinkedIn and connect with Katrina Clokie on Twitter.

Then I figured out that sales and psychotherapy are fundamentally the same practice just with different payment mechanisms.”“There is a lot more commonality between being a VP of engineering and an individual contributor. Being a manager is almost something totally different.”—Peter BellKey MilestonesBefore we dive into the tech Peter tells us more about his private practice as a psychotherapistWhen did Peter first recognize you wanted to be an entrepreneur?Going the founder route is often a roller coaster of a ride.

We’ve separated this episode into 4 sections. In each of them we’ll be explaining different issues that might arise when you move from being an individual contributor (IC) to both a manager as well as a manager of managers. In each section, Guido and Gonto will be sharing some of the solutions they’ve found that worked for them, as well as some examples of both good habits as well as fuck ups.Key Learnings:* When you’re an IC, you have full control of (mostly) everything you do. When you’re a manager, that’s no longer true. In the first section, we’ll talk about a few solutions for this.* When you’re an IC, you’re the one who ships stuff. When you move to be a manager, your job is to enable people to ship and execute better. In the second section, we’ll share some insights about how to better do this transition* For a company to succeed, you need to both hire people smarter than you as well as hiring for your weaknesses. In the third section, we’ll discuss how to handle this.* Being a manager of ICs is very different from being a manager of managers. Last but not least, we’ll discuss how to do this transition effectively.
