PyCon UK 2019

So you want to be a manager
09-15, 16:30–17:00 (Europe/London), Assembly Room

Many developers will eventually make the choice of becoming a manager, the goal of this talk to help them make that decision.


This talk will be about helping people understand what the job of a manager is, make a decision on whether they should be managers, and that there are more ways to advance than just to become a manager.
This talk is aimed at developers of all levels, but this will be more interesting to those who are considering making a career change/are being promoted into a manager role or those who may look into becoming a manager in the future.
