Seven concrete leadership moves backed by concrete results: listen deeply and hold space so teams feel safe; fight for pay parity (secured ~ $20k raises and testers paid equal to programmers for a 20-person team inside a 140-person company); convert testers into programmers and turn that group into a top-performing agile team within months; run experiments, encourage learning, be of service, flow through change, face fears (completed a 17 km Tough Mudder, 35 obstacles) and follow your joy and put people first.
