The Care and Feeding of Drupal Developers

You want a Drupal site, but you don't know how to build it yourself. You need a Drupal Developer. The goal of this session is to help you build the skills you need to successfully communicate to your developer or development team. This will enable you to get the site you want in a efficient method that saves you time, money, and frustration.

In particular, we will look at:

• The basics of Drupalspeak. When to use it and when not to use it.
• How to explain your site effectively in words and documents.
• How to manage timelines, risks, expectations, and progress on your project.
• How to gain buy-in from your developers and build a team around the creation of your site.
