A great technical lead is a great therapist.

They're kind, supportive and know how to focus your energy to help get a really difficult task done. They don't dictate, they don't prescribe, they listen.

Your job as a tech lead is to listen and help figure out a way to make testing, compiling, deployment, support, and escalation easier.
