About the mixer

Building Trusting Relationships in Remote & Hybrid Tech teams
 
Now that the summer is behind us and the leaves have started to fall, we’re back with the next CTO Craft Dublin Mixer and are delighted to welcome Michelle McDaid, Founder of The Leading Place and 2025 ShipItCon speaker (“Invisible Architecture”).
 
Michelle will share insights from her recently completed research in Work & Organisational Behaviour at DCU, where her thesis explored how tech leaders build and maintain trusting relationships in remote and hybrid work environments.
 

What’s new this time?
We’re changing things up with a breakfast edition of the Mixer!

We hope that this breakfast mixer will help make our events more inclusive so that new people – those who can’t always make evening gatherings – have the chance to connect, learn, and be part of the community.

Expect fresh coffee, good food, and the same relaxed networking vibe that makes Mixers so valuable.

What you will learn:
  • How leadership styles are evolving in distributed technology teams
  • The role of trust in enabling high-performing organisations
  • High & low flexibility approaches: challenges and positive impacts
  • Practical trust-building activities undertaken by tech leaders
  • Recommendations to strengthen trust in your own teams
This event was made possible with the help of CTO Craft Advocate: Ashutosh Saxena.
