October 2025 - Scaling Teams, Lead Change & Go Programming Effect by Adam Davis

We're excited to invite you to join us for Staffs Web Meetup.

Join us for an evening of great talks, discuss the latest and hottest topics and socialising/networking.

🎤 Featured Talk: "Scaling Teams, Leading Change & the Go Programming Effect" by Adam Davis

Scaling a team isn’t just about adding people or process — it’s about navigating the messy, human side of growth.

In this talk, I’ll share hard-earned lessons from leading teams through fast change: what breaks, what helps, and how to keep people aligned when things are moving quickly. Along the way, I’ll touch on how technical decisions — like the languages we choose (including Go) — shape the way teams communicate, build trust, and handle complexity.
It’s a talk about people, not just code — and how to grow without losing what made your team great in the first place.

Speaker bio:
