Lock It In

Rule 9 from Practice Perfect

  • Know what it means to be a great performer in your field (it is not always obvious)
  • Identify top performers at your organization
    • Make a list of things that mid and senior levels devs can do that juniors cannot
  • Identify top performers in your field
  • "Make the implicit explicit"
    • The Management Center
    • Other Peoples Children
  • What are the skills, habits and mindsets of senior software engineers?

How to Analzye the Game

  • Observe, videotape and ask questions of your top performers
  • Sit with a team to observe this data, make hypothesis about the skills, discuss and do it again. You won't get it right the first time
  • Develop a list of "specific actional steps for incremental improvement."
