Levelling up as a Lead Developer
summary
Covers concrete leadership shifts: how to move from writing code to multiplying others rather than hoarding work, how the Mirror, Switch and Moan “monsters” appear (example: repeated silent rewrites that demoralise a team), and practical decision models—Dictator, Consultative, Consensus and Roman voting—plus the Ladder of Inference and three communication modes: moan, empathise, motivate. Good if you want specific tools and language to change daily behaviour; skip it if you want code patterns or architecture deep dives.
