Soft skills are a key part of working with a team in our highly-collaborative industry, but they're often taught indirectly and on-the-job. In this session, we demystify expectations and explore these skills in the context of a work product's lifecycle: from understanding the heart of the work, to managing stakeholder expectations, communicating with teammates, highlighting your contributions, and more. It's focused on context, communication, consideration, and industry-specific tips that will hopefully make it easier and more enjoyable to work together on what we're passionate about.
Takeaway
Attendees will leave this session with actionable ideas for expanding and strengthening their ever-transferrable soft skills toolset to bolster their craft and careers.
Intended Audience
This session is for developers of all specialties and levels. Whether you're a junior engineer or senior artist, a hands-on maker or people manager, a social butterfly or the quiet type, this session has something for you.
