Women in Tech organized an event on August 1, 2023 for folks to network and learn from the external speaker Lisa Even. Lisa had a dynamic and interactive presentation about how to give productive and useful feedback. These are some of my key take-aways from the session:
Feedback Triggers: These are triggers that could make someone respond negatively to feedback. When giving feedback, we must be aware of these and respond appropriately.
Open source has become the de facto way to build software not only in tech, but across diverse industries. As companies use open source code to build their own commercial products and services, they also see the strategic value of contributing back to those projects. Since at least 2017 SPS has seen the benefits of contributing back to the open source community in ways large and small. Recently with the acceptance of Add ClientMetadata to SRP auth flow #90 to the aws-sdk-net-extensions-cognito repository another step has been made to contribute back to the community and share additional features out to all consumers of this extension.
