Join forward-thinking leaders and technologists for a half day ONLINE workshop focused on organisation dynamics for effective software delivery, with a focus on autonomous teams aligned to business value streams.
Based on the book by Matthew Skelton and Manuel Pais, Team Topologies: Organizing Business and Technology Teams for Fast Flow, this workshop explains important principles and practices for true autonomous teams aligned to business value streams.
We look at the constraints imposed by Conway’s Law and how we can turn these into a strategic advantage, the importance of team-sized software and responsibilities, what happens when we take a team-first approach to organization design, what are the trust boundaries across an organization and how they influence behaviors with Dunbar’s numbers, how to reduce inter-team communication overhead with techniques like Team APIs, virtual spaces that promote purposeful team interactions, and more.

08.30-12.30 EDT New York

This half day workshop provides an immersive experience, with a balanced set of lectures, case studies and exercises in small groups. Access to all required tooling will be provided free of charge. We will use Zoom (including breakout rooms) for the videocall, Miro and/or Mural for collaborative exercises, and Google Docs for information sharing.
NOTE: this is the FIRST ONLINE half-day workshop we are running, therefore the price is massively reduced (80% discount on full price) and we offer a money-back guarantee.
The training will be led by Matthew Skelton and Manuel Pais, co-authors of the book Team Topologies. Matthew and Manuel curated the well-known DevOps Topologies patterns from 2013 and now help organizations around the world to assess, adapt, and evolve their organization structures and team interactions.
This half-day workshop is a distillation of many hours of experience with different sectors and situations.
