Description
Setting agreements around ways of working, learning culture as a secret work obsession, and the connection between task-scoping and motivation
In this interview series, we at the Developer Success Lab strive to amplify how developer thriving practically manifests in the lived experiences of software practitioners. The Developer Thriving framework – built on robust empirical research in human wellbeing, learning, and achievement – explores the dynamics within software teams that foster growth, satisfaction, and productivity.
In this second interview of the series, Eli Mellen and Principal Developer Experience Engineer Kristen Foster-Marks explore the four components of Developer Thriving:
agency
learning culture
motivation & self-efficacy
support & belonging
They discuss how these components have manifested in Eli’s career, including how they’ve helped shape thriving environments for himself and his teams.
