Technical Leadership Giuliana Carullo

We need leaders and, eventually, we want to become a really good one. Often times it is confusing still. What distinguishes a manager from a leader? What distinguishes a leader from a technical one in today tech world? Technical Leadership: Dreams, success and unicorns walk through what makes or breaks a good technical leader in a very opinionated manner. No matter if you are already a tech lead, a software architect, a CEO, a manager or an engineer, technical leadership is everybody's responsibility. For ourselves and for our teams. The concepts explained in this book are not a list of techniques on how to stop procrastinating, on how to influence or on how to communicate. A lot of books are already out there on these topics. It is a book born from experience, observation of human behavior in the tech world and strong opinions on the topic. It is a book that addresses common aspects - and relative scenarios - that make or break a good technical leader. This book covers the ground truth of a good technical leader, whilst often times neglected. Giuliana Carullo, has computer science in her DNA and has been programming for more than a decade. She is in love with the intersection point between science and human behavior. She believes that there is more than a single way to do good, much more to do bad. But she ends up being really opinionated on what good is. Also author of Code Reviews 101 the Wisdom of Good Coding.
