Agenda

How to Stop Being a Subject Matter Expert

Luke Thomas says:

Tactics for helping that stressed-out single point of failure in your life become a happier member of a team…of multiple points of failure.

WTF is Technical Strategy

Laurie Young says:

The phrase "Technical Strategy" is often used by senior leaders when they want something from their tech teams. However, it's an unclear phrase that doesn't explain what is needed or why. In this talk, you will learn what's behind the phrase, but also how anyone from a CTO to a new developer can use that knowledge to drive conversations that will help not just the leadership but the whole organisation.

Afterwards

When the talks come to an end we'll decamp to a local pub for some food, some drinks and some chat with your fellow attendees.

Of course, even though this is the socialising part and seems more informal, please remember that still we consider it to be a part of the meeting and covered by our code of conduct.

Venue & Registration

Prior to attending you should familiarise yourself with our README paying close attention to the code of conduct which applies to all attendees.

Secure your place

Hopefully you all remember that physical meetings involve finite space and so to be guaranteed entry you need to register via ticket tailor.

We are trialling a new ticketing platform, Ticket Tailor. Do let us know how you find the user flow on it.

The venue has a hard limit of 150 people. Even with such a high number, if you register and realise you can't come, please use ticket tailor to give up your place so someone else can come in your place. We might be able to let in people on the night who haven't registered, but we can't guarantee it.
