In this episode, Dominika shares a personal story when she initially joined a team and made the mistake of trying to solve the problems for the team rather than letting them own their improvement journey. This approach led to disengagement, as team members stepped back and avoided participation. Dominika highlights key anti-patterns, such as thinking you are "too senior to learn" and being resistant to change. Her advice is clear: step back, let the team take charge, and foster a culture of continuous learning by exploring external communities and attending conferences.
