How 500 People Changed Their Delivery Culture
summary
Started with a 3 day 40 people Value Stream Mapping that shows a three month release cycle, then pilots a Factory of the Future: build a small automated pipeline, run multiple end-to-end releases to production, and onboard teams. Reorganize into product teams using the Spotify squad model, push cross-functional roles, run dojos, playbooks and coaching. Outcome after 22 months: 500 people pointed toward rapid delivery, target two week releases, platform change stalls, pipelines not fully rolled out, and teams produce 3,000+ articles documenting practices.
