WRITING
Based on years of research studies, modern psychological science, and original empirical data from over 5000+ real people's voices and experiences, I'm writing a book about the social and evidence science of developer teams.
Why this?
It's never been more important to understand what really helps software teams thrive -- and it's never been more clear that most engineering organizations aren't evidence-driven. Our world runs on code, but many of us never think about who is creating that code and under what circumstances. Good problem-solving environments for innovation will determine what we can solve now and in the future, and that starts with using good social and evidence science to support our teams.
Why me?
I have a uniquely empathic and data-driven point of view on this topic. Having worked my own way out from a childhood with little access to technology all the way to some of the most elite educational and technology organizations in the world, I understand the resilience that drives innovation. My research lights a way to better understand how teams and communities form and fall apart, and how meaningful measurement can change which path we take. I know what it's like to be mismeasured, and I also know what it takes to transform people and places into evidence-based practices that sustain real, authentic human wellbeing and innovation.
