About this Event
*The event will be in English.

This event is part of the DEV.BG IT Team Leads user group.

Program:

This talk is to share the story about how we started from 2 bare desks and grew to a winning team of 40 people for 18 months.

How it starts - what is that you need to be on the right path for a successful team.

The stronger you hire the better your team will be.

There is no recipe for success - there is a vision and hard work.

Have fun but never forget about the business.

Hi there, this post might fit better as a DEV Listing. It’s a dedicated area of the platform where community members and organizations are encouraged to publish information related to events, products, services, job listings, and everything in between.
