How the world’s best ship software and work differently.
Today's tech unicorns develop software differently. They don't do text book Agile. They certainly don't do Scrum. What they do do is something all together completely different. Something that enables them to:
- scale like an enterprise
- while working like a startup.
This talk is about taking you behind the scenes, and showing you how the Googles, Facebooks, and Spotify's of the world do it.
- How they scale
- How they organize
- How they empower
- And how they trust
In essence how they work.
This will not only help you and your teams work better. It will give you insight into how these companies move so fast, how they innovate so quickly, and what the rest of us need to compete and keep up.
