We rarely speak, in our technical world, of non-technical stuff. Topics like communication, leadership, relationship, entrepreneurship, self development, self awareness and the like are usually neglected.

Nevertheless, those topics are what make us unique and make us better professionals and better people.

This talks aims to motivate those reflections.
