Really enjoyed reading this juicy devops+kanban post from globe-trotting management consultant, David J. Anderson (@agilemanager)... here's a [juicy] excerpt!
"The DevOps movement appears to be striving towards the patterns in Systems Thinking expressed by W. Edwards Deming. It’s about understanding the system as a whole instead of only looking at the bits and pieces. It’s about work flowing across functions instead of stagnating in silos. It’s about respect and trust amongst individuals doing the work instead of management-driven command and control."
Didn't I say it was juicy?... it's organizational leadership p*rn for technology organizations!
