Community Pulse

Our hosts elaborate on the notion that, apart from speaking engagements, much of the work undertaken by DevRel professionals remains backstage, yet through live streaming, they can learn publicly and involve community members, overcoming concerns and fostering engaging content for community learning.

With the exception of speaking at conferences, much of what we do as DevRel professionals is behind-the-scenes. However, with live streaming, we’re able to not only learn in public, but bring our community members into the experience. While this can be intimidating, and lead to questions like “what if I make a mistake?” - or - “What if I don’t know all the answers?” - or - “How do I make sure I come across as knowledgeable while I’m also learning?” it can also be a great way to create engaging content that helps your community learn alongside you.

Part of the road to being better at Developer Relations is applying what we’ve learned and passing that knowledge on to others. Whether you are a direct mentor or leading a team of folks new to DevRel, it’s important to take stock of what we are doing and how we can best serve the people we know with the knowledge we have.

As the industry continues to change, keeping a pulse on it becomes even more difficult. Luckily, the team over at Common Room partnered with a number of DevRel professionals (some of whom are on this call!) to create a survey focused on DevRel compensation as well as roles and responsibilities, business impact, success metrics, and personal wellbeing. In this episode, we’ll talk about the results of the survey and learn what we can do to push the industry forward. 2023 Common Room Survey Results Overview (https://www.commonroom.io/blog/2023-developer-relations-compensation-and-culture-report-overview/) Checkouts Rebecca Marshburn * The Color of Law: A Forgotten History of How our Government Segregated America (https://www.amazon.com/Color-Law-Forgotten-Government-Segregated/dp/1631494538?&linkCode=sl1&tag=persea-20&linkId=4c15702a44d9c65837b15d8b7d3976e7&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl) by Richard Rothstein * Common Room DevRel playbooks (https://www.commonroom.io/playbooks/?filters=community/developer-relations) - Like ‘How to automate your GitHub triage processes’ and ‘Easily meet your support SLAs’: * re:Invent - come join our DevRel brunch!

As we learned in Episode 79, “How We Broke DevRel as an Industry (https://www.communitypulse.io/79-how-we-broke-devrel-as-an-industry)”, sometimes the people in charge may not know how to set you up for success. The tasks you’re expected to do can take you away from your core focus. In today’s episode, we’ll talk through how to define your role and defend your team against that very real possibility of being tasked with items that don’t belong within your purview.

Many see DevRel practitioners as up front, in the spotlight, on stage, or at least with their name on lots of content. What if we told you there were people behind the scenes making community operations their priority? What does that look like, and who are the people making the lives of DevRel folks easier?
