How many of you agree βculture can be changed β the problem is how long does it take and what method works best are the differentiators.
It's wonderful that Sascha's work at Deutsche Telekom was partially responsible for helping relocate those employees in Russia due to the Ukraine invasion. π
The beard of DevOps! The Gene Kim Cinematic Universe is fascinating
The DevOps Enterprise Cinematic Universe isn't centrally controlled, so there's incredible variety and innovation.
DevOps scaling strategy: leave books from mark schwartz around the office
Here to close us out is Jason Cox, Director, Global SRE and Amy McCain, Sr. Manager, SRE from The Walt Disney Company
I don't know why but this angle I had during the video seemed cool.
When I grow up, I want to be as engaging and personable as @jason.cox
Nick must have borrowed the 8k RED camera from the studio, because this is the most HD video iβve seen all year
Working WITH others and not FOR others. A fabulous expression of leading with collaboration instead of power.
This is such a fantastic perspective! Partnerships instead of services! π‘
What do you look for in hiring these roles for partnering, how do you grow and incentivize and spotlight excellence? @jason.cox
Following Jason around and hearing his stories are truly strange βΒ tales of all sorts of people in trouble, needing help from someone with the skills on their team. Help is delivered, and lots of thanks showered to @jason.cox @amy.mccain and the teams. It's like a superhero movie.
Now I want to follow @jason.cox around for a day, too :star-struck:
On our Disney internal Slack instance my picture is Alligator Loki. My team named itself SRE-LOKI for "Lots Of Kubernetes Infrastructure."
YES!! These are essential leadership qualities in general. Listening and empathy!!
Genchi Genbutsu is the term that Toyota uses for Go and See.
There is do doubt that people building things (business units, developers, creators) need lots of help when it comes to the tools they need to do their work (platforms, infrastructure, interface with the rest of shared services team)
Nice shoutout to Bettet Sooner Safer Happier @jonathansmart1
Join the Rebel Alliance, they must have read The Unicorn Project! :unicorn_face:
OpEx βΒ not "operational expense"?!? No! "Operational Experience! It should be happy and create more time for the engineers" π
Maybe #PeopleEx. Everyone should have an experience that creates happiness
Guardians of the Galaxy almost didn't make it to the theaters without their help!!! Got stuck in a pipeline!!!
Empathy goes a long way! Teams donβt need a know-it-all, they need a pairing partner working on their actual problem.
Is this πͺ Magic as Code or πͺ Magic as a Service? :thinking_face:

Itβs a wrap! Keep the spirit of DOES in your heart throughout the year!
A massive thank you to the great team behind the scenes - Ann and her team, the AV team. We know there were a lot of people making it all happen. It was brilliant. π β€οΈ And @alex for keeping us on track on slack and much more. :hugging_face:
Thank you to everyone running this fantastic event and to everyone i was able to meet and exchange experiences with. Everytime I attend one of these conferences, I emerge hopeful, with renewed energy and confidence. My mind races with ideas to improve my own organization, and I'm excited to begin catalyzing change and engaging like minded individuals who can influence areas outside my immediate sphere of influence. So, how do you all keep the heightened levels of exuberance throughout the months between DOES events?
I think thatβs still an area open to exploration. Itβs a topic that will hopefully be developed at the upcoming GeneCon. Whatβre your thoughts on what it might look like to keep the exuberance and excitement flowing?
