About the Talk

Leadership is Everyone’s Responsibility

Modern software engineering concepts mostly embrace the “Quality is everyone’s responsibility” concept. Quality is something all teams own, even their leaders.

Because, we know that leadership is essential to amplify and advocate for quality. If we don’t, quality can get forgotten in the hubris of delivering features at speed. But it’s not any leadership; we need leadership that is comfortable in handling ambiguity that comes as a result of constant change and complexity.

This keynote looks to the future and explores a world where we all own leadership, regardless of our role and title. Leadership is everyone's responsibility. Join me!

Key Takeaways

  • Leadership must focus on creating spaces where people thrive and grow
  • Everyone is a leader
  • Change is a process not an event
  • Leadership requires authenticity
