Webcast – IT for Devs: Top 10 IT Pro Skills You Need to Know
I’m developing a new talk called IT for Developers: Top 10 IT Pro Skills You Need to Know. I want your feedback. What I feel like makes my talks great is I take the discussions I have when I give the presentations and re-incorporate them back into the talk. Normally this takes months as the opportunities present themselves to speak on the topic. I want to jump start that process for this talk.
If your a developer or an IT Pro I want you to tune into a webcast this Friday or Monday and give me your feedback. From developers I need to know if the content is useful, what other questions did you have, does this help you understand IT Pro topics better. From IT Pros I want to know what I’m missing, what needs to be emphasized more, what are some good examples for the skills I’m trying to communicate.
Webcast Times
Friday, July 17th, 2009 – 11:00am PST (90 minutes)
Monday July 20th, 2009 – 8:00am PST (90 minutes)
To signup leave a comment and I will send you an invitation to the webcast.
Session Abstract
Are you a developer filling the role of an involuntary IT Pro? Ever butted heads with your IT Pro? Learn what IT Pros wish developers knew about IT.
Learn the ten most important IT Pro skills you need to help you manage servers, write applications to make IT Pros happy, and better understand why IT Pros do things the way they do. We’ll discuss things such as where your application should put its files, networking, performance troubleshooting, the value of OCD, how disaster recovery is supposed to work, and more.
