There’s always a backstage in any profession or craft: things and stories for an inner circle only - like when we ā€œwork for the devilā€, as Alex is putting it.

People like Alex and I used to travel, do talks, training, write docs, write code, tell other programmers what to do with their lives.

This video podcast is a unique peek into the unspoken secrets of developer relations that touches community building and how developer advocates can leverage the passion economy.

The secondary plotline in the video is how Anna thinks developer advocates are salespeople in disguise but changes her mind towards the end, and how Lera thinks devrel people are old dudes who think they’re so smart and she doesn’t change her mind.

So if you’re a young woman working in developer relations, please raise your hand to be a role model for Lera and other young geeks.
