Be the best lead software developer you can be. Best practices, tips and tools to have maximum impact and result. Make sure your can perform at a sustainable pace. Learn best practices for being a great lead software developer. Every software developer at some point will have the opportunity to become a lead software developer. Definitions of what exactly a lead software developer is are different, but in this book I will provide you with best practices and tools to be the best lead developer you can be. For yourself, your peers and the business leaders you are working with.

On a number of topical areas I will go into details about the lessons I learned when growing into my role as a lead software developer. Everybody's environment is different, but I think there is something useful in this book for everyone.

Definitions of what exactly a lead software developer is, are different. In some companies it is the smartest developer, in other companies it is the oldest developers and in the next company it might be the person who stumbled into the role just because nobody else volunteered. Or maybe it is a clearly defined role, and you were hired for this position. Regardless, in any circumstance, you want to be the best lead software developer you can be.

In this book I will provide you with best practices and tools to be the best lead developer you can be. For yourself, your peers and the business leaders you are working with. While we often work in sprints, the practice software development or any career is a marathon. So make sure you keep a sustainable pace, I also address the topic of being/feeling overloaded with work. Being in the lead means you do a ton of things, but it does not have to define you. Your goal should be too good or great at your craft and have a bird’s-eye view allowing you to give direction and meaningful choices for your peers and business.

This book is for:
- lead software developers looking for tools and practices improving their workflow, balance and result.
- software developers aspiring to become lead developers.
- people looking for material to help them coach and train lead software developers without a software engineering background.
