General leadership skills are great to have, but as a Tech Lead, you need a little more than that. Are you ready to learn the most useful technical leadership skills from an experienced Tech Lead himself? This 2-day learning experience is packed with interactive exercises, discussions, videos, storytelling, and knowledge sharing. We explore the unique combination of knowledge and skills that distinguish a Tech Lead from a leader working in a technical environment.
“I found the trainer and course both engaging and inspiring, and I would recommend any potential, or current, Tech Lead to grab the opportunity to attend if it becomes available to them.” – Glasgow attendee

Preferably, you are familiair with different parts of the software lifecycle (e.g. story writing, build and release infrastructure, development and test, release and/or iteration planning and production support).
The Masterclass is aimed at inexperienced and semi-experienced Tech Leads, however experienced Tech Leads also found this workshop to be very useful as they rarely get to think and reflect on their day to day work.
This Masterclass will provide you with a clearer understanding of your role and new tools and mental models for handling Tech Lead responsibilities. To create an in-depth and personally relevant learning experience, feedback is always part of our practice. Last but not least, you will meet other Tech Leads (to be) to add to your network.
