It’s ok to be scared - deeply and intensely, this is the most effed up thing either of us will ever have to live through and we just really need to do the latter. It’s ok to feel unprepared to deal with these humans who look at you as a leader/parent when you were barely adulting before this all happened. Breathe and get help.

Let's talk about "Accelerate: The State Of DevOps" report again and about what makes some teams digital elite with stats that enviably show how fast they move and makes others fail to replicate that success. Hint: #PsychologicalSafety #DevOps #Agile #Technology #SoftwareDevelopment #culture #HR #FutureOfWork #WaysOfWork #teams #leadership
Any self-respecting business with claims on sustainability or ambition to win these days, is aware that we live in a #VUCA world and the ways we used to employ to do business as recently as a few years ago, are simply no longer fit for purpose. “Speed” is the word of […]
"If you’re serious about #Agile enough to see it succeed in permeating the entire #organisation, take a look at the methods and practices that are state of the art in #software #development as they’re dripping with blessed inbuilt goodwill, thirst for #knowledge, willingness to make (arguably “too many” but that’s another post for another day) mistakes and true, ego-less #collaboration" #devops #SDO #PeopleNotTech #NoWoWWithoutWoT #technology #leadership #HR #operations #SAFE #ImpressionManagement #PsychologicalSafety #teams
The knowledge that #Agile is THE way is worth the effort to keep both ourselves and others anchored in the breath of the principles and incessantly ask ourselves: “Am I #Agile “yet?” or “Am I #Agile “still”?” #DevOps #Transformation #FutureOfWork #NoWOWwithoutWOT #PeopleNotTech #HumansAtWork #Technology #Flexibility #Meditation #WaysOfWork
If you’re aiming for a #PsychologicallySafe high #performing #team (and let’s face it, in this #VUCA world what other kind is meant to survive?) then you need to keep a close eye on #ImpressionManagement and closely observe them so that they don’t engage in the behaviour. Here is what it means and where to start. #leadership #technology #productivity #peoplenottech #humansatwork #devops #waysofwork #psychologicalsafety #HR
About time #Employees everywhere had a good year where their happiness and wellbeing mattered and things changed for the better. I believe 2020 will be it. Here are some encouraging trends. #HR #PeopleNotTech #HumansAtWork #WaysOfWork #FutureOfWork #Leaderships #People #DevOps #Agile #Diversity
"What if we've left the idea of probing in-depth into the well-being of our people so far behind, that none of the big things work? What if we have human debt, not tech-debt? Relationships to clean and fix, not code? Team dynamics and health to test, not features?" #Agile #DevOps #Team #HR #PeopleNotTech #Scrum #Technology #softwaredevelopment
What to do about half-baked Agile unsupported by a shift in the way of thinking? #Transformation without #change. Agile by numbers. Agile as seen on BigConsultancyTV with no change of #mindset. Agile as a #process. The Agile party in the #IT department and #Waterfall #BAU in the #business. Us and them. #WowNotWoT. - Fall in love with #Change - get #DevOps in the mind not the #tech.
How To Not Fail At #Agile 94% Of The Time. Why we should stop saying and thinking "transformation"- and how #DevOps is a much better term for the new #WaysOfWork and more importantly the new #WaysOfThinking in #knowledge #organizations who need to do #Agile if they are to use #technology fast and smart enough to delight their #customers.
