Topic of Main Talk - Leading in the Age of AI: From People manager to Agent manager
As more of the typical workflow for development looks like prompting and training programming agents, how will this shift how we approach leading? Will ICs become Agent leads? Where does that leave Engineering Managers and Tech Leads?
Hey everyone, I’m Thabang—an engineer at heart, a leader by experience, and a firm believer in the power of startups to drive meaningful change. Over the past 13 years, I’ve navigated the chaos of early-stage tech, wearing hats across the stack and across leadership. My passion lies in building high-performing teams, scaling products, and figuring out how technology can be a force for good. Looking forward to exchanging ideas, war stories, and lessons on engineering leadership!
