00:00:02.959 --> 00:00:04.480
You're smart as hell.
00:00:04.480 --> 00:00:09.279
You built the thing, you fixed the thing, and then they made you the boss.
00:00:09.279 --> 00:00:12.080
And suddenly, you're stuck.
00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:15.759
You miss the keyboard, but now you have to lead people.
00:00:15.759 --> 00:00:20.320
You're wrestling with that inner voice that screams, 'You're a fraud'.
00:00:20.320 --> 00:00:27.280
And you can't stop diving into the code because management doesn't give you that immediate dopamine hit.
00:00:27.280 --> 00:00:30.879
You feel busy, but you're not moving the needle.
00:00:30.879 --> 00:00:34.880
It's organizational bullshit and it's stressing you out.
00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:37.920
Welcome to Still Technically Here.
00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:46.320
I'm your host, Kerri Theriault, and I'm here to tell you I didn't make this transition perfectly, and I sure as hell don't know everything.
00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:55.600
But, I survived the jump from individual contributor to technical leader, and I've learned how to debug the systems of management itself.
00:00:55.600 --> 00:01:08.000
This is where we will have candid conversations, drop the corporate jargon, and focus on the intentional, thoughtful, and helpful systems that will let you scale your impact.
00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:11.280
We're talking about shutting down the inner critic.
00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:21.439
We're talking about why micromanagement is the ultimate flow killer, and why your hands may be off the keyboard, but your brain is Still Technically Here.
00:01:21.439 --> 00:01:28.400
If you're an engineer, a tech lead, or any leader wrestling with confidence and culture, this show is for you.
00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:34.159
Let's stop building technical debt in our careers and start building scaffolding for our teams.
00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:37.519
Don't just survive your career, own it.
