Listen "Team Topologies with Matthew Skelton"
Episode Synopsis
Matthew Skelton, Founder at Conflux and co-author of Team Topologies, joins the community to discuss Untangling software delivery with Team Topologies, flow metrics, and careful decoupling
The key predictive IT delivery metrics uncovered by the book Accelerate and the State of DevOps Reports - aka “DORA metrics” - point the way towards flow-centric operating models for every modern enterprise building and running software-enriched services. However, improving flow of value within an organization is often difficult due to cross-team dependencies and coupling: everything is tangled. In an organization with 700 software engineers, if 60% of the time is spent waiting on other teams - a typical industry flow efficiency - the financial penalty of dependencies and coupling is high. It is vital, therefore, to invest in decoupling and removing team dependencies - untangling - to enable value to flow better and more efficiently.
