Abstract, as submitted
Nailing down “culture” is hard - the veritable nailing Jello to the wall. This talk will define what culture is and then cover several methods for leading culture change based on recent case studies at large organizations.
Getting the benefits of DevOps requires more than just tools and process. You also need the organizational context and norms - the culture - that allows DevOps practices and thinking to thrive. Nailing these down, let alone what “culture” even is, can be hard - the veritable nailing Jello to the wall. This talk will define what culture is and then cover several proven methods for leading culture change.
