Becomming a Tech Lead
Team interest
It’s all about Team execution
* Help the team to meet its goals, objectives,
* Help the team to be on the same page
-> It’s primarily a social role
Communication
TLs: People and communication
* alias for “goes to meeting” :)
* Influence, guidance, sponsorship, delegation
* Share and spread the knowledge
Activity
TLs time
* essential:
- Tech capability
- judgment
* Less important
- accomplishment
-> 40-60% of time is communication
Beeing TL is hard
- Delegate high impact / “fun” and “intersting” work
- Conince people to to things in a certain way is hard
-> You are responible for your team impact, not only yourself any more
TLs / Manager
Complementary and NOT overlapping
Manager (PO): Focus on business needs
-> Where = Manager
-> How = TL
How to use TLs
- Source of information
- Provide informations
- OR redirect to the right people
- Decision making
- Advocate & Amplifier
=> Key result: The team move forward
The TL works for the team,
not the other way around,
