🚀 DevOps is Not Enough – Re-thinking IT from Scratch (Uwe Friedrichsen)

Rethink IT from the ground up, decentralize and empower teams, and deliver business value and customer needs in a rapidly changing and unpredictable market.

Key takeaways

DevOps is not a solution, but rather a catalyst for change, requiring a rethinking of IT from the ground up.
Traditional management and hierarchy are not effective in today’s fast-paced and uncertain environment.
IT needs to be more decentralized, autonomous, and responsible for its own decisions.
The original idea of Enterprise Architecture Management is broken, assuming certainty and predictability.
Change drivers come from the market, which is unpredictable and demanding.
The role of DevOps is to amplify feedback loops and enable continuous learning and improvement.
Autonomy, purpose, and decentralization are key to success in this environment.
Traditional Scrum and Waterfall approaches are insufficient and need to be rethought.
IT needs to be more focused on delivering business value and customer needs.
Change requires a willingness to learn, adapt, and evolve rapidly.
The future of IT is about delivering high-quality, highly available, and adaptable solutions.
Organizational change is necessary to support these new demands and requirements.
The concept of “mastery” is key, as it enables individuals to take ownership and responsibility for their work.
IT needs to be more human-centered, taking into account the needs and limitations of people.
The role of leadership is crucial in enabling this change, by empowering teams and fostering a culture of continuous improvement.
The focus should be on solving real-world problems, rather than just implementing new technologies.
