Early in his development career, John Sonmez discovered that technical knowledge alone wasn't enough.
To break through to the next income level developers need "soft skills".
This includes the ability to learn new technologies just in time, communicate clearly with management and consulting clients, negotiate a fair hourly rate, and unite teammates in working toward a common goal.
As John invested in these skills his career took off, and he became a highly paid, highly sought-after developer and technical consultant.
Today, John helps more than 1.4 million programmers every year to increase their income by developing this unique skillset.
