I went to a @WriteSpeakCode meetup years ago where I gave a talk arguing something very similar! That storytelling is your most valuable skill. Great quotes in here. There were a couple that really resonated with me around the work we do on the @K8sContributors comms team!
What's the most important skill you can develop right now? I'd argue it's persuasive communication skills.
I study this topic and practice it here, with my team, and with customers.
These are the books that have impacted me the most:

I got the opportunity to build my first class with O’Reilly Media because of a panel I was on at @WriteSpeakCode that @AshColeman30 asked me to fill in for someone. It’s also how I met @techgirl1908 . So very grateful for this organization. ❤️🙏🏽
After giving a lot of time and consideration for the sustainability of the organization, We have decided to dissolve Write/Speak/Code by December 2023.
My first paid speaking gig was because someone pulled out of a panel for @WriteSpeakCode , and @AshColeman30 connected me with @techgirl1908 who was organizing to fill that spot. 💗💗💗
Two of the most phenomenal women I know.
I don't know of any bootcamps but @radiomorillo has lots of guides. and @WriteSpeakCode does writing Meetups - this org helped mold me and I can't recommend them enough
yup!
I wrote that section because we had concerns about people submitting "one of your members called me an asshole and that's against your code of conduct" nonsense complaints.
