From Tester to Leader: Mentoring, Coaching & Management in Tech

What happens when you move from being an individual contributor to managing and developing others?

In this episode of PLATO Panel Talks, host Mike Hrycyk is joined by Heather Stapleton (PLATO, Delivery Leader, Atlantic Region) and Ellery Furlong (PLATO, Manager) for a practical conversation about mentoring, coaching, and management in tech with lessons from their own experiences, including how to build trust, support quieter team members, adapt your mentoring style, and avoid becoming a crutch for the people you lead.

Moving into management isn't just about taking on more responsibility. It's about learning how to help others, and yourself, grow confidently in technology careers.
