In this episode, I want to ask you a question that might make you defensive: "Are you a perfectionist programmer?".

I can tell you, after many years of being a software developer, I've gotten much better at this. But one of the things I want to help you with in this video is to maybe think a little bit about how you work with others – and maybe make better decisions about what kind of expectations you have from software developers, technologists, and other people on your team so that you don't get into a situation where you turn people off and you can't really get their best work and cooperation because you might expect them to work exactly how you do.
