Perfectionism, Impostor Syndrome and Anxiety - Understanding your fears and learning to be kind to yourself
Jo Franchetti discusses how to understand your fears and learn to be kind to yourself.
You’ve likely heard the term “Developer Relations” being used in the last year or two and there’s a high chance that someone you follow on Twitter just announced that they joined Microsoft or Google’s “Cloud Developer Advocate team” but what does this actually mean, and more importantly, why should you care? After all, you just want to commit your code and keep the API up and running. Mary Thengvall, Author of The Business Value of Developer Relations and an experienced Technical Community Manager will explain the difference between Advocates, Evangelists, and Avocados, as well as help you understand how to interact with this new group of folks in a way that is beneficial to everyone.
Mary Thengvall is a connector of people at heart, personally and professionally. She loves digging into the strategy of how to build and foster developer communities and has been doing so for over 10 years. Mary is the Director of Developer Relations at Camunda, a developer-friendly process orchestration platform. She’s the author of the first book on Developer Relations: The Business Value of Developer Relations (© 2018, Apress).
