I think it's fair to say that the last 12-18 months of constant upheaval in our industry has made a lot of folks uncomfortable and less than optimistic about the role of the engineer moving forward. In this session, I intend on reviewing a few observations I've had about this latest paradigm shift, how it relates to technology shifts from the past, and how we collectively can use this to our advantage to disrupt an already disrupted market. As a result, this session will challenge you to look at how you tell your story and describe what you're capable of in a world where change is almost outpacing itself every couple of months.
Included in this session are two exercises: one is mapping what you've done over the past week into different functional areas we technologists tend to live in, and the other is a larger experiment asking attendees to reimagine their own brand and share reworded summaries or bios that reflect this change in thought.
