Ask HN: How does one lead a team in a hackathon?
8 by hackathrow | 4 comments on Hacker News.
I'm participating in a week-long hackathon in a few days and gathered a team together for an idea I've been exploring recently. I guess this means people are looking at me to be in charge and that's not a role that comes naturally to me. A few questions: - How do you get people excited and aligned to the same vision, so we're all pulling in the right direction? - My biggest concern is everyone will be remote, so there's no natural space for us to all occupy when working together. I'm looking for advice on how best to structure the week so we actually make it to the finish line. I'm guessing motivation will play a big part here. I'm definitely not experienced in leadership (I'm just a typical worker drone here) so advice is appreciated!
