It's ON! Running Impactful Project Weeks
summary
A recurring, scheduled team week called ON Week dedicates five days to experiments and proofs of concept, with planning starting two months earlier via a project proposal spreadsheet and Slack/GitHub prep; over four years the program runs about 30 company-wide events and this security team has run seven weeks producing 80 projects, prototypes like CI tools and threat-research hacks (baby camera experiments), and only a few become products so leaders cancel standing meetings and defend focus.
