Nerdearla Spain 2025 is around the corner, and Clara Ramos González is on stage. On Friday, November 14 (12:50–13:25, Yellow Stage), Clara will deliver her talk, “Balancing Code and Calm: The Art of Conscious Management, Productivity, and Wellbeing.”
In today’s fast-paced IT landscape, managers juggle delivery pressure with the health of their teams. Drawing on 14+ years in Software Quality Assurance and her experience as a yoga teacher and dedicated meditator, Clara will outline a practical toolkit you can apply immediately, without slowing the work down.
What you’ll learn
- Conscious leadership, daily: how breathwork, active listening, clear communication, and short stretch routines reduce stress and sharpen focus.
- Accountability without friction: ways to lower resistance to feedback and foster ownership across QA and engineering teams.
- Engagement & continuous improvement: simple practices that raise involvement and sustain better outcomes.
- High-leverage rituals: why 1:1s and retrospectives are non-negotiables for alignment and momentum.
- Hands-on vs. hands-off: how a hands-on management style unblocks work and boosts collaboration—without drifting into micromanagement.
Who should attend
IT managers, QA leaders, developers stepping into leadership, and anyone building resilient, high-performing teams in structured yet flexible environments.
