Maximizing Developer Effectiveness

Description

To be successful at digital transformation you need to optimize the key feedback loops in your software engineering organization

Summary

  • Technology is constantly becoming smarter and more powerful.
  • Not every company needs every feedback loop to be in the high effectiveness bucket, but they provide concrete goals to guide decision-making.
  • It is useful to look at what techniques have been applied to optimize the feedback loops and the journey that companies have taken to get there.
  • This is where platform thinking, rather than optimizing for individual teams, comes into play.
