Remote first ensemble programming
Have you paired/mobbed on code with your team? Why not? Ensemble (group) programming is a great technique to stomp out blockers and organically share knowledge. Let’s explore a day in the life of a team that has been meeting full-time on zoom and still enjoys doing it! You will walk away with techniques to successfully solve problems as a group, not fall into the Zoom fatigue void, and come out with a closer-knit team and clean ticket board (because you got your sprint all wrapped up).
Listening - Your Communication Superpower
Everyone speaks about critical communication skills, but good communication isn’t just about talking to people but also listening to them.

Whether you are an individual contributor or someone who has people reporting to you, leveling up your listening can supercharge your career. Let’s discover active listening, the importance of nonverbal communication cues, and how to hone your empathic abilities to make you the finest teammate and leader you can be.

Join me as we delve into four targeted techniques to address these issues. Whether you're brand new to the field, a seasoned professional, or someone who has never explored 'soft skills' talks, these strategies are tailored to help you grow, improve, and stick with a new habit for once.
One does not simply add MFA
MFA (Multi-factor authentication), much like the fellowship in the Lord of the Rings, stands as a vital security pillar for any application, safeguarding against the dark forces of unauthorized access. However, even the most robust MFA mechanisms can face challenges. In this quest for digital security, our choices in implementing MFA can be as crucial as any decision Frodo made. Join me on an adventure as we delve into the intricacies of MFA to ensure you have a formidable implementation. We will journey through the best practices for implementing MFA, helping you fortify your digital realms. Learn from real-world experiences — the battles, victories, and, yes, occasional setbacks — and equip yourself with the knowledge to shield your applications and not betray the trust of your users.
