Christian Milerski ist gelernter Werkzeugmechaniker für Stanz- und Umformtechnik, arbeitet als Drahterodierer und im Recruiting und ist seit fast 20 Jahren im Berufsleben.

Er ist selbst weder Unternehmer, Selbstständiger oder Führungskraft.

Ganz im Gegenteil. Auf die Frage, wie viel Erfahrung im Berufsleben er als Führungskraft hat, lautet die Antwort: Null

Er bekommt jedoch jeden Tag mit, bei Familie, Freunden, Nachbarn, etc. was in der langfristigen Bindung und Begeisterung von Mitarbeitern schiefläuft.

In Zeiten von Fachkräftemangel und Fluktuation möchte er genau hier neue Impulse setzen.

Seine Ideen und Anregungen sind aus der Praxis für die Praxis

I’ve spent almost 2 decades exploring the many facets of tech : from hands-on development to program management, with stops along the way as a tech lead, scrum master and manager of 1 to 4 teams, and sometimes handling Product Management. My journey has been driven by a passion for agile methodologies, team empowerment, and creating environments where collaboration and innovation thrive.

I love sharing what I’ve learned, and I’ve had the privilege of speaking at some of France’s most dynamic tech events. In 2018, I spoke at Agile Tour Toulouse and Montpellier, diving into the evolving role of Scrum Masters. At Toulouse Devfest 2023, I tackled the challenges of managing remote teams, and in 2025 at Devvox, I shared my experiences with the "No Estimate" practice and how to help teams embrace it.

But my commitment to the tech community doesn’t stop at speaking. In 2019, I designed and led workshops for my company, including the "Artist vs Specifier" session and sketch note workshops to improve visual management. I’ve also joined conversations on podcasts like IFTTD and Tech Lead Corner (2024), discussing strategies for engineering team management. Since 2025, I’ve been part of the organizing team for Devfest Toulouse, helping to bring the local tech community together.

As a speaker and facilitator, my goal is simple: to empower teams to work better together, adopt new ways of thinking, and build a culture of continuous learning. Whether I’m on stage, running a workshop, or contributing to community events, I believe that strong, empowered teams are the key to success in any project.
