What does a Friday night rush at a packed bar have in common with a production outage? More than you’d think. In an era where AI can handle the syntax, the "human" architecture of engineering—de-escalation, reading the room, and managing chaos—has become the ultimate senior-level differentiator. Drawing on two decades in hospitality and a career in software leadership, this session translates "bar logic" into a tactical framework for leading high-performing Flutter teams. We’ll explore how to apply "Mise en Place" to your development workflows and use "Service Recovery" to turn failed deployments into loyalty-building moments. Whether you’re a solo founder or a team lead, you’ll learn why the most resilient leaders don’t just write code—they "manage the floor." Leave the IDE behind and discover how hospitality-honed intuition can help you navigate the messy, non-binary reality of human collaboration.
