How to launch a rocket and not burn in the atmosphere: do not forget about the motivation of the leads

The launch of a rocket is cool like to be a hero. But it is cool for the time being. What happens at the end? - I think that many of us know or guess about the result. Burnout, demotivation are waiting for the “heroes”, but often we hear about demotivation in the context of team members, not about leads. Important to remember that leads are human.

That’s why in my talk I will show the reasons for necessary of motivations of leads. We will consider the problem on the example of the leaders in testing: test manager and QA lead. I will describe the bad effects for the test team if a lead is demotivated.
