Team Topologies, Cognitive Load & Complex Systems | Matthew Skelton In The Engineering Room Ep. 12

Matthew Skelton is co-author of "Team Topologies: organizing business and technology teams for fast flow". He is Head of Consulting at Conflux and specialises in Continuous Delivery, operability, and organisation dynamics for modern software systems. In this conversation with Dave, he talks about the ecosystem necessary to build and nurture software, and the wide range of topics that impact on the effectiveness, and performance of development teams. The approach that his book "Team Topologies" describes is to use team structure as a tool, guided by the idea of managing the cognitive load of the team. This talk ranges from how to deal with the complex adaptive system that we inhabit when undertaking software development, to the structure of software development being more like an ant colony than an organised, predictable hierarchy.xx⭐ PATREON: Join the Continuous Delivery community and access extra perks & content!📕 "Team Topologies" by Matthew Skelton and Manuel Pais ➡️ https://amzn.to/2Y0NdSO🔖 Matthew Skelton on "Why are Deployment Pipelines Important" ➡️ http://bit.ly/3UhrNLG📖 The original, award-winning "Continuous Delivery" book by Dave Farley and Jez Humble ➡️ https://amzn.to/2WxRYmx🔖 Get my FREE guide "How to Organise SW Teams" when you join the CD Mail List ➡️ https://www.subscribepage.com/organis...Equal Experts is a product software development consultancy with a network of over 1,000 experienced technology consultants globally.
