It encouraged discussion in a relaxed environment, which was valuable to me since a lot of the colleagues attending were in orgs that have different practices." (Ciro Nishiguchi, Chief Engineer at National Instruments)

"I really recommend this code review workshop. It expanded my understanding of the code review process. Specifically, I understood much better the difference in perspectives between coder and reviewer." (Stas Wishnevetsky, Backend Team Lead Wix.com)

"Michaela is a great communicator and expert on the topic! I enjoyed the workshop in general, especially provided examples of good and poor code review feedback. If you are interested or want to know more about code reviews best practices I’d definitely recommend her!" (Vasily Belolapotkov, Full-stack developer at Automattic)

"Code-reviews and their expected results are very subjective. Putting them into a valuable and dignified context for all participants can be difficult.
