What meeting skills do coding bootcamps miss?

They skip visibility habits: asking questions, flagging risks, giving proactive updates – the trio that makes managers trust you.

Make your value visible in meetings and async channels; code alone won't sway execs who skip code reviews.

Yes, but smart: one targeted question or update per session beats silence every time.
