Consulting to Technical Leaders, Teams, and Organizations presents a rich discussion of the opportunities organizational consultants have to impact the development of technical leaders, teams, and organizations.
The expansion of the tech sector has revolutionized how processes are conducted in almost every realm, from farming to medicine to communication to retail and so much more. The role of technical leaders has evolved from supporting organizational functions to creating and leading corporations, many with worldwide impact. This boom in the technology industry has brought along unique challenges and opportunities for organizational consultants. Consulting to Technical Leaders, Teams, and Organizations covers topics including creating effective engagement with technical leaders, understanding technical teams, and assessing and changing technical organizations.
