Join us for a practical full-day workshop the day after the conference. The workshop venue is Convene, 101 Park Ave, New York, NY 10178, USA.
Please note the different venue to the conference, and that workshop and conference tickets are sold separately.
People are hard, so why are they called “soft skills”? Much like technical skills, there is both science and art, theory and experience, to becoming good at leading, managing, coaching, mentoring & developing people. In this workshop we’ll look at some of that theory, share experiences and boost your ability to develop yourself and others.
No prior experience leading, managing or developing people is required, but those who are going to get to use such skills in the near future will probably get the most out of this workshop.
No laptop needed.
“Congrats and thank you to @Geek_Manager for running an awesome people skills workshop. Lots of happy team members with fresh perspectives!”
