Session: Surprising skills that will make you a better software developer
Is a non-technical background always bad for a software developer?How you can embrace your previous work experience and make use of it in a coding job? Even if this previous experience we are talking about is being a mystery shopper.
Is it possible to master programming skills better thanks to learning a foreign language?

During my talk I would like to take you on a journey of surprising skills that will make you a better developer. By answering questions above, I will show you what you can do to be a programmer that is passionate, involved and thinks not only about coding but users and business as well. I had various jobs in my life and I am constantly surprised how many things from my past are useful in a frontend engineer role. They really had nothing to do with coding, yet they help me to do my job better. Are you ready to find out what exactly I am talking about?
