Develpreneur: Become a Better Developer and Entrepreneur

Learn From CoWorkers : Interview with Douglas Squirrel

06 Apr 2023

Description

There are many things to take away from our discussion with Douglas Squirrel. However, one major point is that we should learn from coworkers. Technology workers are not immune to seeing other departments as less important than they are. We look at how "suits", marketing, and other groups should be partnered with and not ignored. We will find our job easier and more successful when we build relationships and trust instead. Expand Your Influence When You Learn From Coworkers Some would love to be able to walk into a company and tell everyone how things should be. Fortunately, a company only has one such person, and they are called CEO. The rest must work together and use their diverse skills and talents to provide customers with the best products and services. That is how a business succeeds. When customers are not happy, the organization suffers. About Squirrel Squirrel​ has been coding for forty years and has led software teams for twenty. He uses the power of conversations to create dramatic productivity gains in technology organizations of all sizes.
