Episode #71, published Thu, Aug 11, 2016, recorded Wed, Aug 10, 2016

Writing good, clean code and having a deep working knowledge of Python is critical to your success as a Python developer. But if you look at those who have truly excelled in their career, it's often because they bring something in addition to coding skills.

We all want to be the most successful and satisfied version of ourselves. But that's much easier said than done.

That's why I'm excited to introduce you to John Sonmez. He's had a brilliantly successful career as a developer and he wrote a book to help all of us do the same. It's called Soft Skills: The software developer's life manual and it's packed full of concrete, practical steps you can take to stand out in the tech industry.
