Software engineers are at their happiest when working on projects that excite and challenge them. Often, this translates to projects that allow the freedom for experimentation, innovation, and ongoing learning. Yet, with increasing pressure on teams to deliver more at a faster rate, the relentless pursuit of product roadmaps can stifle this innovative spirit. When engineers feel unfulfilled, talent retention becomes a challenge. Discover how to strike the perfect balance and keep your team thriving.

In this panel, engineering leaders share how to create space for fostering innovation within their teams without disrupting vital business projects. Discover why a culture of experimentation isn't just about retaining your top talent – it's also the key to staying ahead in a very competitive industry landscape.
