This document, an excerpt from "Not Your Everyday Tech Lead: What Does It Mean To Be TL in a Lean Software Company?" by James Haworth Wheatman, explores the distinct role of a Tech Lead within a lean software development environment. It differentiates the Tech Lead from a senior developer, emphasizing that a Tech Lead functions as a "manager" who creates optimal conditions for developers rather than focusing solely on individual coding tasks. The text introduces lean principles, inspired by Toyota's production system, highlighting systematic problem-solving and standardization as key to delivering high-quality software efficiently. Through concepts like the "mentor model" of management, "Andon," "Genchi Genbutsu," and the "four M model," the source explains how Tech Leads identify root causes of problems and implement solutions to prevent recurrence, thereby breaking the "cycle of firefighting" and fostering team productivity.============== Code content percentage: 0% Total text length: 2707 characters 🔗 Original article: https://gitnation.com/contents/not-your-everyday-tech-lead-what-does-it-mean-to-be-tl-in-a-lean-software-company-2262📋 Monday item: https://omril321.monday.com/boards/3549832241/pulses/9835025311
