Leading successful remote teams

🕓 1:25 pm - 2:10 pm📍 River Room 2 (Lv 3)
Remote work might now be considered the norm, but many software teams have been doing it since "before it was cool"! That's not to say everyone does it well, though... In this session {speaker} shares their near-decade of experience leading successful software teams distributed across vast timezones and continents (UK and Australia). They'll reveal their approaches to implementing processes, coding standards, and collaboration tools to keep teams running like a well oiled machine despite physical distance. Let's discuss some tried and tested approaches for ensuring remote teams thrive – with a particular focus on supporting mental health, team wellbeing, and adjusting ways of working to support neurodiversity like ADHD. Additionally we'll explore ways to maintain a strong, supportive team culture despite physical distances – including tips for remotely onboarding new colleagues. Whether an engineer or a manager, you will leave inspired with ideas for how to improve collaboration and quality across your team.

It’s such a privilege to be able to run this conference and DDD Perth would love to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land in which DDD is created, presented, and shared, the Whadjuk people of the Noongar Nation and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their Elders past, present and emerging, and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
