The article by Andy Warfield on Werner Vogels' website (https://buff.ly/3Ox5ZM8) was one of the best reads I had last year.

This week, I was on a call with a customer who said: "Flow is the new euphemism for efficiency". The person talked about how folks grab and dilute a concept for the old status quo. In this case, we discussed fast in the context of @TeamTopologies.

And yes, if your organisation wants to leverage software, you need to be able to facilitate it. Each organisation is unique and has a different set of .

Hey folks!

Together with @trondhjort, we have a workshop that is focused on on open system thinking, how how it can be applied to set strategic goals and evolve the organisation structure.

We are looking for conferences where we can run the workshop. Do you have any suggestions?
