Small batch management
● Create a culture of innovation, risk
taking, and focusing on people
(“users”)
● Give product teams autonomy, trust,
and voice
● Establish trust by doing what you say,
delegating, and celebrating
failurelearning.
● Feedback loop: surveys (ENPS),
silence, churn, results.
● Giving feedback: OKRs, praising
process & stories, not just schedule

  • #6: - The point of all this is to drive business value. More or less, that means money – protecting it or getting more of it (top-line vs. bottom-line). Some example (Liberty Mutual, credit union, etc.)

  • #15: So, what’s this platform. Well, here’s ours, Pivotal Cloud Foundry. This is a maximal slide, of course, but at a high-level it’s simple. It removes the operations/deployment bottleneck. Most everything is automated and controlled by PCF. A packaging and operations model is defined It sets up the kind of self service, rapid deployment developers like. It has ops, though, which is what allows Comcast to hit 4 operators. And, now, there’s some more options, with PKS and the upcoming serverless stuff. There’s all sorts of other advantages a platform like this brings you .. Multi-cloud, public and private …no more need to manage operating systems …Security assurances from containers and tight networking controls – JPMC rebuilds its platform every Thursday, during the day. Companies often layer their own platform on-top of this, like Allianz & Scotiabank who customize it with shared services. T-Mobile USA supports 18,000 containers and 1,700 developers with just 10 operators 18,000 containers doing 10,000 transactions a second. 1,700 developers supported by 10 operators; a 170:1 ratio.

  • #18: With that bottleneck removed, what do organizations do? The IRS story. Was 12 to 18 month cycle for release. 2009 Microsoft study found that only 1/3 of features met the original goals (2/3 were not successful, more or less). Allianz uses a more structured approach to doing this enterprise wide.

  • #24: Setting vision is key, but staff will be suspicious.
