Guest Writer: DigiTech SearchHallo zusammen!
Mark here - it has been a VERY busy few months since my last blog post, we have some catching up to do! 😄
At the beginning of September, I officially started my new role as Head of Engineering at Visable Labs, here in Berlin. I'm honored and excited to be joining this excellent organization 🎉
At the same time, I was also recently invited to appear as a guest on Paul Turner's podcast, “Lightning Talks with Technical Leaders” to share my story, and discuss the intersection of tech, life and everything in-between.
In the podcast, we dig into:
✈️ My recent leap from the U.S. to Germany
💙 Why human-centered leadership is critical in today's landscape
🤝 Challenges I've faced and my approach to enabling teams
💡 A few thoughts on the current hiring scene (as a recent candidate myself)
🫥 Why organizations must bring respect and humanity back to the hiring process
🤖 How AI is rewiring our brains (for better or worse)
If any of those topics resonate with you ( or you just want to check out my super cool Spiderman RSVLTS shirt ), check out the episode below 😀
And please check out DigiTech's previous episodes (available on YouTube and Spotify) to hear more wisdom, experience and insights from other inspiring tech leaders. It’s well worth your time, I promise.
share the love
