Do I need a mentor to succeed in tech?
by Guest japhletnwamu- 0 replies
- 0 views
"Tech is fun!", so they said. But getting in, I realized it wasn't as fun as people said it was. I think a much better term I would use is "Tech is wide and confusing". And yes, it is! If you're like me 7years ago, planning to start your tech journey or already started off, I'm sure you can relate with this - it is difficult to pick a specific path to focus on, it's difficult to find the exact resources that point you to the right direction, and even worse, it's difficult to avoid people who would want to exploit you and your skill for their benefit. Do You Need a Mentor to Succeed in Tech? For me it's a yes. If you can, get one. Having a mentor increases your…

So, the question that we're going to try to answer today is, can architecture prevent you from shipping your org chart? One thing you may not know about this series is once upon a time, we wanted to call it “Arguing Architects” because we thought there'd be all these cool arguments that we would get into. It turns out that we have done some arguing, but it hasn't been all that. The good news for you i…
