Understanding Cognitive Load

Overview

About this stream

As a powerful follow-up to our upcoming session on "Recognizing and Managing Cognitive Load" with Radek Orszewski, we're excited to continue this crucial conversation with a deeper dive. For this session, we are thrilled to host Aleix Morgadas, an esteemed Engineering Strategy Consultant and CPTO at Teamperature, as our special guest. Together, we will further explore "Understanding Cognitive Load" and how to approach it in a more organized and impactful way.

In the demanding world of IT, truly understanding cognitive load goes beyond just recognizing its symptoms. This session will move beyond surface-level indicators like Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to ask the right questions and delve into the core of how cognitive load influences IT specialists. We'll explore practical ways to gain a more comprehensive understanding of its presence and effects within teams and organizations.

Crucially, we'll examine how to effectively bring this awareness to leadership and enable a better, more supportive workplace. This is an essential discussion for individuals looking to deepen their understanding, and particularly vital for team leaders and company management committed to fostering healthier, more productive, and sustainable environments.

This is a unique opportunity to gain advanced insights into managing mental well-being in the tech industry and empower yourself with the knowledge to make informed, systemic decisions for your team and organization.

    Good morning, good afternoon, and good evening, everybody.

  2. Karol

    My name is Karol Skrzymowski, and I'm your host today for another episode of Loosely Coupled livestream by BridgingTheGap.eu.com.

  3. Karol

    Today, I hope you have some nice beverage and a little bit of a clear mind after days of work, or if you're watching this midday, hope you have a slow day today so we can dive into the topic of cognitive load, and we're going to be having a conversation about how cognitive load influences our work as IT teams.

  4. Karol

    I think that's something worth exploring.

  5. Karol

    Joining me today is Aleix Morgadas, who is an engineering strategy consultant and ex-CPTO at Temperature, and Aleix has more than ten years of experience in tech and specialises in engineering strategy with domain-driven design, team topologies, and worldly mapping, which I have no idea what that is, but I'm certainly going to ask Aleix later about that.

  6. Karol

    So, he's been sharing his real-world experiences on his personal blog on Substack, and at conferences, and now he's joining us today to chat about cognitive load.

  7. Karol

    Hello, Aleix.

  8. Karol

    Hey there.
