Architecture in ACTion: Impactful Mind Skills for Tech Leaders
by Cosima Laube
Architecture work can be tough: understanding tech stacks, using new tools, facilitating decision making, working with plenty of stakeholders & even some organisational development. Herding cats is easier, isn’t it?
In other words, architects often need to *simultaneously*:
– show up fully as a tech leader and influence people
– have the headspace to dive into new tech
– create valuable impact together with colleagues
All of that, even when things get rough. And, yes, things *will* get rough from time to time: hard decisions, hidden or open conflicts, high workloads – just to name a few “usual suspects”.
With Architecture in ACTion, I introduce you to decades of practical science on the Human Mind. We’ll dig into concepts such as Psychological Flexibility and ACT that are still rarely used in biz but have a huge impact – for your work and beyond!
Because deep tech expertise, complexity navigation *and* solid people skills is just a lot to juggle.
You will leave my Architecture in ACTion session with:
– practical, low-tech tools for more effective operational work as an architect
– a reflection canvas for laser-focussed strategic work as a tech leader
– digestible science bits on the Human Mind and behaviour
– and (hopefully!) a desire to learn more about your “thinking machine”
But beware: don’t join this session if you expect plain old “soft skills” training or you’re looking for a magic wand to make “all the people problems go away”.
