[Group Talks] Tech Lead And Mentorship Discussion

If you join this event, you are expected to participate.

Group Talks are a special type of Taro event that fully leverage the power of community. Here's how they work:

• Everyone in the call splits up into small groups of 3-4 people
• Within each group, every person takes turns talking about the session topic and answering a list of questions (check the slide deck below)
• Others in the group listen and provide advice and feedback for the active speaker
• Participants are encouraged to network with each other (share LinkedIn and Taro Premium Slack handle) and meet up again for future discussions
• Due to the intimate nature of these sessions, nothing will be recorded
