Michał Skowron

Michał Skowron

I’m a technical writer turned software developer. I’ve always had a knack for technical things so at some point I got interested in learning how to code. My first choice was Python. The knowledge of Python opened up new career possibilities for me and sped up the process of picking up other languages. After 8 years of writing technical documentation I became a documentation tools developer. I’m currently working at Guidewire Software where I take care of the tools and infrastructure that enables writers to deliver high quality docs and clients to get information they need when they need it. In my free time, I’m the producer and a co-host of a podcast about technical aspects of delivering software documentation - “Tech Writer codes” (in Polish). I’m also a co-admin of techwriter.pl, the only Polish site about technical communication. A few years ago I wrote a short guide for tech writers who want to start coding in Python - “Tech Writer codes in Python” (in Polish). Occassionally, I publish articles related to my work, for example: https://techwriterkoduje.pl/git-team

# Speaking experience
- CAKE Conf 2025, Kraków, Poland: "Git for docs: basics, not only for beginners" (workshop)
- Content Bytes meetup 2025, Kraków, Poland: "Shocking discovery: self-organized distributed teams actually exist!"
-Soap! Conference 2022, Kraków, Poland: “Is tech writing in Central and Eastern Europe growing? This talk contains only facts”

- Annual Translators Conference 2019, Lublin, Poland: “Technical writer profession”

Paul Stonehouse

ENG: Thought leader at Schneider Electric on applying Lean and Agile principles in Catalyst Leadership, Organizational Design and Methods. Paul is currently working in the PMO Organization of Global Supply Chain, where applying Agile, Waterfall and Hybrid structures are contextually dependent.
Paul has worked in a variety of fields, including software, digital, cyber-physical hardware systems, systems integration and now the most complicated system of all.... people and teams.
The story of Agility is about people and how we try to bring new thinking models today into incremental changes over transformations. Paul uses an invitational coaching approach that meets people where they are and adapts through context-sensitive frameworks, methods and tools. This allows us to find more obstacles and work relentlessly with people who are improving while respecting people and culture, which is the foundation of a digitization journey. Let's work together to change the world.

FRA: Leader d'opinion chez Schneider Electric sur l'application des principes Lean et Agile dans le leadership catalytique, la conception organisationnelle et les méthodes. Paul travaille actuellement au sein de l'organisation PMO de la chaîne d'approvisionnement mondiale, où l'application des structures Agile, Waterfall et hybrides dépend du contexte.
Paul a travaillé dans divers domaines, notamment les logiciels, le numérique, les systèmes matériels cyber-physiques, l'intégration des systèmes et maintenant le système le plus compliqué de tous.... les personnes et les équipes.
L'histoire de l'agilité concerne les personnes et la manière dont nous essayons aujourd'hui d'introduire de nouveaux modèles de pensée dans des changements progressifs plutôt que dans des transformations. Paul utilise une approche de coaching sur invitation qui rencontre les gens là où ils sont et s'adapte grâce à des cadres, des méthodes et des outils sensibles au contexte. Cela nous permet de trouver plus d'obstacles et de travailler sans relâche avec des personnes qui s'améliorent tout en respectant les personnes et la culture, ce qui est le fondement d'un voyage de numérisation.
