Listen "#132: Inverse Conway Maneuver"
Episode Synopsis
In the last episode, I introduced "Conway's Law" - an observation of how our organisational structures influence our software structures.
In this episode, I want to talk about how we can utilise this law when we want to improve problems in our software structures - commonly referred to as the "Inverse Conway Maneuver".
Why you might be interested in this episode:
A recap of Conway's Law and the negatives you may be observing
How the same law can be used to re-organise our teams to improve on those negatives
Ideas from the "Team Topologies" book which build on this to define 4 team types and 3 team interaction modes for improving the flow of our software change
