Not for me, but I do like that one of the sections is:<p>> 08 - Winning trust with communication<p>> Learn simple keys to becoming a better communicator and how to identify your team’s different communication styles.<p>Having experienced the pain of working somewhere where leadership tried to decree a single "right" method of communication for all developers that didn't jive with us at all, I don't take this for granted anymore.<p>In that case, management declared that in-person communication was so essential to the agile philosophy that all devs should be ok with being interrupted by anyone and at any time for the purposes of having a face-to-face chat (and WFH was not allowed unless sick). I now work somewhere where I don't see any co-workers in person on most days, and somehow we get tons more work done and stay in contact just fine. Weird how that works...
The book "Project Management for the Unofficial Project Manager" is a high-level but pretty complete introduction to project management. It has good examples from non-technical projects, such as rolling out a new health program in a hospital. It uses official terms from the Project Management Institute’s infamous "Project Management Body of Knowledge" (PMBOK) so information learned from this introduction can be carried over to more rigorous projects.<p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/194163110X/" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/dp/194163110X/</a>
Thanks, I think I might check this out. I have been toying with the idea of getting back into leadership. I hate seeing all of these people with terrible bosses.<p>All of my leadership experience is 1) outside of tech, and 2) not remote oriented. Now that I have some experience as a coder under my belt (~5 years), I'd love to get some training on remote leadership styles and perhaps lead a team and make something useful.
TeamGantt is a great help for planning, and this course is well worth doing.<p>In my team's recent planning of a major multi-month feature, TeamGantt tooling helped us plan, helped our leadership visualize milestones and goals, and helped our developers deliver on time and on budget.
