Reprogramming Organization IT Agility DNA to achieve delightful customer experience
FANG (Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Google) companies achieved business agility by smart variations of inverse Conway maneuver, design system architecture and collaborating tools that impose constructive constraints on the teams to change the way they communicate and manage.
How can we stop humans waiting on computers? How can we reduce chance of human error? How can we build DevOps friendly workflows?
We find organizations need to change the culture of how they build software. The big revelation is that teams want their work being used, it is human nature.
The talk reflects on DNA of above companies built on modern development using scaled agile and DevOps practices, modern architecture and modern teams.
It synthesis the learnings to define target state collaboration, platform and architectural models for interested organizations to deploy and run their workloads, identify the architectural features that empower teams to collaborate and deliver solutions quickly to production easily and quickly.
It concludes with elements of Organization DNA, that needs to be reprogrammed across development and operation delivery value streams to maximize value with teams, who are self-organized around vision and roadmap, cutting across business lines to delight customers.

Public Feedback
Thanks for the proposal, Pranay.
When I look at the proposal, it is submitted as a case-study. However, from your proposal outline, it appears to be a generic talk, rather than a specific case-study. Can you please clarify?
Hi Naresh,
You are right. It is a talk/keynote presentation. I have made the update accordingly. Apologizes for the confusion.
Thanks !
Pranay
