2) The Refactoring Community 💬
We also run an incredible engineering community with more than 800 members, including engineers, managers, and founders from all over the world.
We truly believe it’s the best engineering community in the world, and we do plenty of things together, like:
🧠 Masterminds — we hold monthly sessions, facilitated by a professional CTO coach, where you meet other members and work through your challenges.
📗 Book club — every 2 months we read some famous non-fiction book and we review it together in a live event.
🎟️ Live interviews — we host incredible guests for live interviews and roundtables, where you can join in for Q&A. Recent guests include Kent Beck and Farhan Thawar.
➡️ Coming up — we write newsletter articles together. People join in with their own experiences and insights, and authors are quoted in the newsletter.
Communities like this usually cost thousands of dollars a year. If in a year you only join one mastermind session, chances are the subscription has already repaid itself!
