Tech Lead Coaching

"If you want to build a ship, don't start gathering up wood and assigning tasks to people; instead, teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea."

The Tech Lead Coaching Network is a free, open source, community driven, and volunteer-based organization of tech leads and those who coach them. You are currently viewing the open source materials intended to guide new tech leads and coaches in what to expect, what skills to focus on, and generally how to get started.

These guides were originally written by Michael Rice ([email protected])[mailto:[email protected]] but you are welcome to contribute to it on Github.
