SuperWomen in Tech are thrilled to partner with Olena Slyshkova, a Principal Solution Architect, for the next session in our series, focused on how you can prepare yourself for what comes next in your tech career.
Most IT specialists spend years mastering technology, frameworks, and tools.
But when it comes to technical leadership, there is:
- no documentation
- no standards
- no clear guide
You’re expected to “just figure it out” by yourself. That’s why I am talking about real-life leadership in IT, the kind that happens inside technical teams, with qualified professionals who value autonomy and expertise over hierarchy.
You’ll walk away understanding:
- The exact mindset shift from individual contributor to technical leader
- How to recognise and replace the expert patterns that block effective leadership
- Why delegation is so painful for IT experts
- Why your strongest technical habits can sometimes hold you back
This is practical, experience-based guidance for technical specialists.
