📢 A Call to Simplify Development: Let’s Start with People, Not Code In my career, one truth has become clear: the world is incredibly technically illiterate. Yet, many projects jump straight into code—only to become sprawling, complex, and hard for anyone outside of engineering to understand. Let’s change that. Imagine a process where we start with workflows and plain language, mapping out objectives and functionality with comments and placeholders before writing a single line of code. It’s an approach focused on clarity, alignment, and simplicity—one that bridges the gap between technical and non-technical team members. This method allows teams to: ✅ Engage stakeholders early, shaping features and functionality without diving into technical details. ✅ Identify and refine workflows iteratively, so we’re only solving the right problems. ✅ Avoid the pitfalls of overengineering, making our projects clear and manageable from the start. 2024 should be the year we streamline, define, and integrate. Let’s move from “code-first” to “outcome-first” project development. If you’re interested in exploring this approach or need guidance on applying it to your team, reach out! I’m here as a mentor and would be glad to support you on this journey. Let’s bring clarity and purpose to our projects, together. 🛠️ #SimplifyDevelopment #WorkflowFirst #Mentorship #TampaBayDevs #TechnicalLiteracy

Here are some tips to get your knowledge sharing sessions rolling: Focus on Specific Topics: Choose relevant topics that address current team challenges or emerging technologies. Variety is Key: Mix up formats - presentations, demos, open discussions, code reviews - to keep things engaging. ️ Encourage Participation: Create an open environment where everyone feels comfortable asking questions and sharing their own experiences. Make it Rewarding: Acknowledge and appreciate your team's contributions to foster a culture of continuous learning.

Change is inevitable—whether it’s processes, technology, or business relationships. The question is: how do you handle it? For me, I view change as an opportunity to learn. If something new works out, it’s a success to build on. If it doesn’t, it’s a valuable lesson in what not to do next time. This perspective applies to coding as well. Every successful code run feels like a win, but even the errors offer critical insights. Every attempt, right or wrong, adds to the journey of growth and understanding. How do you approach change in your work or coding journey? #ChangeManagement #GrowthMindset #CodingJourney #LearningByDoing #ContinuousImprovement #ProblemSolving #TechTransformation

If the current plan doesn’t align with your strengths, change the plan, not the goal. In software development, sticking rigidly to a plan that doesn't work can lead to frustration and stalled progress. The key to success is adaptability. Just like debugging code or refactoring a project, it's okay to adjust your approach as you move forward. Think of it like navigating through a dark forest with a flashlight—you can only see a few steps ahead, but that’s enough to keep going. Trust yourself to pivot and refine your strategy as needed. The journey of development is dynamic, and your ability to be flexible is your greatest strength. #Adaptability #GrowthMindset #SoftwareDevelopment #Agile #Success #Selfbelief #Softwareengineering #SuccessMindset

Find the right path for you

Not just good advice for software development. Good advice for any walk of life. If it's not working: * Evaluate what's wrong & stop beating your head against the wall * Ask for help. Someone had to help move the dysfunctional bicycle to a more functional path before productive motion could begin. * Realize that THIS solution my not be a fit for EVERYTHING * Be willing to change.

As a Scrum Master overseeing a team of developers, I encountered the unique challenge of supporting a team member with dyslexia. Understanding the individual's needs was paramount, so we initiated open dialogues to discuss their specific challenges and preferences. To ensure their effectiveness and sense of support, we implemented targeted strategies: 1. Customized Communication:We adjusted communication methods, offering written materials in dyslexia-friendly formats and supplementing with verbal explanations when needed. 2. Flexibility in Work Approach:Recognizing diverse work styles, we encouraged flexible approaches to task completion, allowing the team member to choose methods that suited them best. 3. Educational Workshops:We conducted sessions to raise awareness about dyslexia, fostering understanding and empathy among team members. 4. :Accessible Tools: We provided access to tools like spell-checkers and speech-to-text software, empowering the team member to work efficiently. 5. Ongoing Feedback and Support: Regular feedback sessions ensured the team member felt valued and received assistance when needed. By adopting these measures, we not only supported the developer with dyslexia but also cultivated a culture of inclusivity and collaboration within the team. #InclusiveTech #SupportiveScrum #DyslexiaAwareness
