An effective programmer needs to combine selected technical and “soft-skills” in order to best perform his or her work.
However, since the vast majority of programmers are promoted based on their technical know-how, there are often significant gaps in the “soft-skills” part of the skill-set. These skills include the ability to better prioritize their work, avoid distractions, motivate themselves to be more effective, as well as being able to communicate in a clear and supportive manner.
As such, a specific training designed for programmers wishing to develop their skills is a good way to enhance their everyday effectiveness.
The program is developed as a set of meetings, with a 3-5 week break between each workshop, enabling participants to practically test their new skills and report on how well they have worked for them, etc.
It's all about the content.
- Improving communication – in-team, with clients and with business.
- Developing feedback and knowledge sharing skills.
- Increasing motivation and work efficiency.
- Reducing stress and burnout.
- Improving decision-making.
