Welcome to the Programming Leadership podcast! In this episode, you’ll meet the host, Marcus Blankenship, as he introduces his passion for helping programmers navigate transitions.

So whether you’re a new programmer, you’re on the management track, or if you’ve been a manager for years, be sure to tune in as Marcus will help prepare you to not become just a manager, but how to truly become a great leader.

Making the transition from computer-person interaction to person-person interaction is what the Programming Leadership podcast is all about. Leadership is about developing a set of skills where everyone can contribute to problem-solving. Links: Marcus’ Website: https://marcusblankenship.com/
