Many software engineers are naturally lone wolves due to their introverted nature. While this can work out as a junior or mid-level engineer, it quickly becomes unsustainable as you reach senior/staff levels and beyond due to the immense workload. This lesson teaches you:

  • The importance of uplifting others around you when it comes to getting stuff done
  • One of the core virtues the best engineers have, which is particularly needed for mentorship
