Sometimes among all the sprints,  the pressure to ship faster,  tools to measure lines of code written,  it seems like we as an industry forget a simple fact: developers are knowledge workers, not robotsTo remind us what it means to be a human, we invited some of the most empathetic engineering leaders we know to Interact and asked them to sit on a panel together. The conversation that followed is one of the most insightful and relevant conversations we've heard all year. Whether you are an IC, manager or manager of managers, we promise this conversation will help you become a more empathetic leader and colleague.  Today's episode of Dev Interrupted features Kelly Vaughn, Director of Engineering at Spot AI; Jean Hsu, VP of Engineering at Range; and Lena Reinhard, an engineering leadership coach.  Show NotesWatch all of Interact on the Dev Interrupted YouTube channel Learn about the power of Continuous Merge with gitStream Join the Dev Interrupted Discord Want to try LinearB?
