In almost every developer's life there comes a time at which he/she has to choose.To go into management, or to stay in development.Now, if you're a "my concept of fun is reading about monads and category theory" kind of developer, this will probably feel like you're selling your soul to "The Man".But here's the hard truth. No matter what you want to achieve in your professional life, chances are you'll need help from other people to do that.So doing at least some sort of management is not an option, it's a necessity.In this talk I'll tell you my experience of going through this transformation.I'll try to sum up my ups and downs into a quick and easy cookbook you can use in your day-to-day operations.So that you still have time to do what you love the most, develop!

About speaker
Hrvoje Crnjak, author
Hrvoje is a Team lead at Oradian, and a Lead Software Developer at several startups.Currently his main focus is leading a team at Oradian, a fintech startup.He entered the world of software development programming microcontrollers and FPGA circuits.After he got the handle on that, he decided to play with Java.He was doing that for 8 years working on several big international projects (and some not so big).Then he got borred, so he started learning the strange ways of front-end development, so that he could finally say he's a full-stack developer.He did a couple of single-page apps (React + Java), and then wandered off into the the world of Scala.For the past 2 years he's been a proud Scala developer.As he got older he developed an appetite for sharing his knowledge with the software community which led him to speaking engagements such as this one.He's a software nomad always interested in learning new technologies and methodologies, and never completely satisfied with his or anyone else's code.
