Software developers face an ever-changing and ever-expanding
technology landscape, which can appear as intimidating as Mt.
Everest to newcomers. Developing technical skills is vital, but
there are dozens of soft skills and learning techniques you need if
you're to grow and succeed professionally. Honing those soft skills
is a big part of what "Apprenticeship Patterns" is all about.
Authors Dave Hoover and Adewale Oshineye, both formerly of the
global IT consultancy ThoughtWorks, have cataloged dozens of
patterns of behavior to help software developers hone their craft.
Developed through years of research, a multitude of interviews, and
feedback from O'Reilly's online forum, these patterns address
difficult situations faced by entry-level programmers, system
administrators, and database administrators. Each pattern has a
memorable name to help point you in the right direction when you
need it most. Examples of common obstacles and their solutions
include: burned out at work? - learn how to 'Nurture Your Passion'
by finding a pet project to help you rediscover the joy of problem
solving; feeling overwhelmed by too much new information? - take a
step back from your learning to re-explore some familiar territory
by building something you've built before, then use 'Retreat Into
Competence' to launch yourself forward again ; and, feeling stuck
in your learning? - seek out a team of experienced and talented
developers where you can 'Be the Worst' for a while Like any
patterns book, you can read this one front-to-back, jump to
specific patterns when you encounter the issues they address, or
cherry pick just the ones that are new to you. The purpose of the
solutions is to inspire you to stay on the path you intend, rather
than wander off into management because it seems like the only
option for advancement. "Apprenticeship Patterns" approaches
software development not as a means to financial success, but as a
means to personal fulfillment. It's your life and your career.
Discover how this book can help you make the best of both.
