Here's the lineup for tomorrow's meeting! YOU'RE A MANAGER. NOW WHAT? It happens to a lot of us: you're doing a good job as an engineer, you've been around the company for a while, and BAM! You get "promoted". Well, it turns out that like engineering, management takes skill and practice. You can't just expect that because you're smart you'll be good at it. Nic Benders from New Relic talks about what some of those skills are, and how to work on improving them.
RAFFLE We'll be giving away a shiny new Peepcode, books, software licenses, tons of Heroku credits, and some t-shirts! AFTERPARTY When the meeting's over, we'll head over to Rock Bottom Brewery for a round or two of beer. (Thanks to New Relic for providing the beer at this month's meeting!) .... DIRECTIONS Meetings are held on the UCSD campus, at 7:30pm, on the first Thursday of the month. If you plan to drive, follow the directions below and make sure to get a parking pass.
