A Collaborative Culture… …Colliding Great Ideas!

DevOps – Focus on Making a BIG “Business” Difference

- Solve real “business problems” with and for real people

- Take complicated things and simplify them

- Resolve conflicts and surprises…collaboratively- Create systems that fix things once for global teams

- Design things that… - Last, scale, can be measured and improved- Make people happy (Project teams, product teams, customers…) - Really MATTER…then reuse it and improve it!

DevOps & Agile – Getting Past the Silos…

- See the Business opportunity & the Portfolio of priorities- Know the User, User Stories and the Requirements- Collaborate across projects with iterative efforts- Automated Project flows and Product deployments- Stay connected long-term with metrics & feedback loops- Coordinate with Go-To-Market and launch activities- Listen to Customers / User experience / Support concerns- Integrate with the Business teams and their goals

DevOps – The Art of Better Software Making

Allow your network, new data and the global process/systems to

expand your view, re-use great work and inspire new innovations

that matter to the business and keeps things improving!

DevOps – Maps DON’T instill Knowledge (they give general directions)

DevOps – Data is NOT Knowledge (visibility and feedback really matter)

DevOps – Information is NOT the same as Community Knowledge

Sounds good….

So how do we get some of that deployed around here?
