Are you joining a new company, team, or project? Do you want to make sure others respect you so you can use the technologies you want – and get your skills used?

Early in my career I thought the best way to do this was to impress others with my technical acumen. But I learned quickly that this only causes frustration and delayed me being accepted.

In this episode, I share stories and tips that will help you approach a new team with a positive attitude. You'll overcome walls people can put up and instead have others welcome your suggestions for improving their software project.
