Harnessing your team superpowers - Tia Caldwell

Joining a new company or team can be terrifying but imagine joining a team where you are expected to lead and have very little context. I'm prepared to share stories and tips from my six year management journey on how to lead with empathy while harnessing your team superpowers. Will share an exercise we used at Slack to determine everyone's superpower and how it can be used for good or cause harm. The audience for this talk should be managers or inspiring managers. Tia leads the Monetization Team at Slack, a leading global collaboration hub that makes people’s working lives simpler, more pleasant and more productive. Over the past 13 years, she has led and managed engineering teams at Netflix and Microsoft, covering a breadth of projects such as Xbox, Office 365 and Streaming Content Delivery. She serves as a facilitator in /dev/color and is the co-founder of Color Code, a scholarship fund dedicated to future leaders of color in tech
