She is an active speaker at conferences in Norway and enjoys giving workshops on different Agile topics. She is devoted to get teams and organisations to collaborate and work efficiently, creating the best products possible, using principles from Agile and Lean. Since she graduated in 2004 she has been working in numerous development projects in telecommunications, energy, media and the public sector. The first years as a developer and later on as team lead, project manager and now coach. She is passionate and interested in all things related to creating great products, convinced that this relies as much on inter-human aspects and communication as it does on technology. She is curious by nature and right now she is on a one year sabbatical with her husband and two girls. A great opportunity to experience new places, cultures, people and to learn! </p> </div> <div class="podcast-chapters"> <h6>Chapters:</h6> <ul> <li><a href="#!"> - Dave introduces the show and Christina Kjær Seime</a></li> <li><a href="#!"> - Christina's sabbatical and travel with her family</a></li> <li><a href="#!"> - Christina's experiences with speaking at and organizing conferences</a></li> <li><a href="#!"> - How Christina got started in software</a></li> <li><a href="#!"> - Christina's many roles in software and the nature of coaching</a></li> <li><a href="#!"> - Christina's story of failure - losing information archives and not telling anyone</a></li> <li><a href="#!"> - Christina on being a woman in tech</a></li> <li><a href="#!"> - Christina's book recommendations</a></li> <li><a href="#!"> - Safety and speaking the truth</a></li> <li><a href="#!"> - Tactfully addressing problems</a></li> <li><a href="#!"> - Christina's hopes and expectations for returning from her sabbatical</a></li> <li><a href="#!"> - Christina's opportunities to continue coding</a></li> <li><a href="#!"> - The things that have Christina most excited</a></li> <li><a href="#!"> - Christina's top 3 tips for delivering more value</a></li> <li><a href="#!"> - Keeping up with Christina</a></li> </ul> </div> <div class="podcast-resources"> <h6>Resources:</h6> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.miles.in/" target="_blank">Miles</a></li> <li><a href="http://smidig.no/" target="_blank">Smidigkonferansen</a></li> <li><a href="http://developeronfire.com/podcast/episode-337-doc-norton-builders-and-problem-solvers" target="_blank">Doc Norton on Developer On Fire</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.allaboutlean.com/visual-management/" target="_blank">Visual Management</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.crisp.se/konsulter/henrik-kniberg" target="_blank">Henrik Kniberg</a></li> </ul> </div> <div class="podcast-book-recommendation"> <h6>Christina's book recommendation:</h6> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/1942788290/?tag=devonfir-20" target="_blank">The Phoenix Project: A Novel about IT, DevOps, and Helping Your Business Win - Gene Kim</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/0374533555/?tag=devonfir-20" target="_blank">Thinking, Fast and Slow - Daniel Kahneman</a></li> </ul> </div> <div class="podcast-tips"> <h6>Christina's top 3 tips for delivering more value:</h6> <ol> <li>Look at the whole value chain to see where you can improve</li> <li>Work together</li> <li>Have fun</li> </ol> </div> </div>
