Frequently Asked Questions

We designed it for immediate impact. Each lesson is just 15 minutes, delivered in a microlearning format that fits easily into the workday - one per day, or more if they choose. Every lesson is based on real situations from the daily job-life in tech, not theory, and comes with a practical handout as a daily-use cheat sheet. The takeaways are instantly applicable, so your developers can start improving how they work from day one.
That's exactly why we built it the way we did. The course is split into short, focused video lessons - just 15 minutes each (microlearning). Developers can take a lesson during a break, before standup, or whenever it fits best. Experience shows that our users usually complete their lessons right before work with their first cup of coffee to start the day with a positive experience, so to speak. It's fully on-demand and self-paced, so there's no need to block calendars or disrupt project flow.
Better (soft) skills beyond code lead to better results - it's that simple. When developers communicate clearly, collaborate effectively, and understand the business context, they build the right things faster, reduce costly misalignment, and take real ownership. That means fewer delays, less waste, less friction, and stronger delivery - all of which directly support business growth.
Fair enough - many do. That's why this course is nothing like the usual chair-circle voodoo. It's made by developers, for developers - practical, straight to the point, and built around real situations from tech teams. No fluff, no theory dumps. We're developers ourselves, with years of experience, and we built this course the way we'd want to learn: fast, relevant, and actually fun. Think late-night-show energy with takeaways you can use the next day. That's why our dev customers not only take the course - they genuinely enjoy it.
We get it. Most developers don't jump at the idea of soft skills training - but this isn't about changing who they are. It's about learning proven, practical hacks to get their voice heard and their influence felt. It's about producing less tech debt because their expertise is considered earlier. In short: it's about having real impact on their career.
Ask any developer if they've ever had a great idea ignored or watched someone less skilled get promoted - over 70% say yes, and it bothers them. The difference isn't more code. It's communication, influence, and presence.
In fact, research from Harvard, Stanford, and the Carnegie Foundation shows that 85% of career success comes from well-developed people skills, not just technical ability. And with AI and automation rising fast, the demand for human skills is skyrocketing - up 53%, according to the World Economic Forum.
Meanwhile, tech skills age fast. New frameworks. New stacks. New tools. But the skills in this course? They last a lifetime - and fast-track developers toward more recognition, more responsibility, and more meaningful work.
We're not like the utters - and we've even been awarded for it. Our course received an Innovation Competence award from the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research for its unique approach to teaching.
This isn't a generic soft skills seminar. It's tailor-made for the tech industry, created by developers for developers. Every example, situation, and persona is pulled from real-life tech environments. No fluff, no theory overload - just practical insights you can apply immediately.
The course is based on hundreds of interviews with seasoned engineering leaders, packed with the kind of advice and proven team practices they wish they'd known earlier. Think of it as a collection of real-world tech career hacks - delivered in a way that's smart, relevant, and easy to put into action.

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

Let's Talk

Your developers spend half their week in meetings - and code won't help them there. You're paying top talent to sit in rooms where their strongest skill isn't even relevant, but strong soft skills would make those meetings count.

So do the math: How much does such a meeting cost and how many more of those do you want to fund? The potential is there. Use it.

In and Out in 15 Minutes

No pressure. No pitch deck. Just a quick, useful chat to see if this fits. It's more comfortable, easier, and faster than writing an email.

And by the way - calling to clear things up directly instead of interpreting, expecting, or typing walls of text - that's your first soft skill lesson.
