Keep Yourself Alive - Stopping the Effects of Burnout
The tech community puts a warped badge of honor around burnout.

It’s often seen as an indicator of success and working hard when it’s actually harming the growth of our developer communities and teams.

This talk will cover:

Why burnout culture takes away from inclusion
Identifying burnout within yourself and your teams
How to grow your technical skills without compromising your personal life
How to bring a healthy work and growth ethic to your team, no matter if you’re the newcomer or the tech lead.
