Nice one @mahatheed.

For those who can’t attend in real time, the recording will be available for Pro Members in the coming weeks. As a side note, here’s the existing catalogue of incredible Masterclasses. Such a brilliant collection of community members.

My favorite idea from the talk was the internal skillsharing platform. Having a place where employees can advertise their skills or needs and potential mentors and mentees can find each other.

I would really like to implement this in our company. Because testers are in several locations we often don’t know that they already have experience with something. Therefore everyone is trying to learn with online courses etc. instead of using internal experience. This could also be a great way to grow closer together, get to know each other.
