SLEED THE WAY #10 | WHY I DECIDED TO STOP WRITING CODE

In the 10th episode of the #SleedTheWay Podcast, Stelios Eliakis, General Manager of Sleed, welcomes Nikos Moumouris, Technical Project Manager at Sleed.

Nikos shares his experience transitioning from programming to managing teams and clients, describing the challenges he faced at the beginning of this process. Nikos and Stelios talk about the changes in their confidence and perspective, as professionals who chose to pursue new paths. They also highlight the issue of how clients perceive the value of development and discuss the role of recruiting in finding the right people for the company.

Staying on this topic, they take the opportunity to refer to the inherent leverage of expertise and hard skills – leverage that can often prevail and tip the scales when it comes to awarding a project. At the same time, however, they underscore the importance of soft skills, such as attitude and values, in building well-balanced teams. Finally, Stelios and Nikos discuss how challenging it can be to manage friendships within a work team, emphasizing that maintaining the right balance in the workplace is a factor that ensures collaboration.
