The world is changing faster and faster and technical possibilities are increasing exponentially. Organisations are responding by moving from one reorganisation to another. And usually it gets more complicated. DevOps teams typically suffer more from organisational issues than technical ones. What should a future-proof organisation look like? Meaning that you only need 1 final reorganisation to get there. And is it possible to move towards it directly and at an accelerated pace?
Is it possible to move towards a future proof organisation directly and at an accelerated pace? What elements are important in this process? And what can we learn from what has been tried in the - recent - past? In this highly interactive presentation Jan de Vries uses a combination of Appreciative Inquiry and First Principle Thinking* to help you discover your own future proof organisation components and simultaneously distill the generic elements from it. Jan will share his research results indicating that we are already moving in the right direction with Agile and DevOps
- he uses Appreciative Inquiry to collect peak experiences that might be part of an ultimate organisation
** he uses First Principle Thinking to boil things down to the most fundamental truths and then reasons up from there
