Talk description
Title:
Continuous delivery: a product manager’s perspective
Short synopsis:
The continuous delivery movement (CD) has been a game changer for businesses, helping them deliver high quality, reliable software at predictable speeds. And yet parts of the business cannot keep up, which slows down delivery. Drawing on the experiences of 2 product managers, this talk will explain where things can go wrong and explore how to identify, fix and avoid common issues – through the adoption of continuous delivery as an organisational mindset, rather than a software delivery practise.

Long synopsis (optional):
The continuous delivery movement (CD) has proved to be a game changer for organisations, helping them deliver high quality, reliable software at predictable and fast speeds. Now CD is well established, this talk will take stock of where the movement is right now; where things can go wrong; and leave you with some fresh ideas to avoid these pitfalls in your own organisation. As with so many movements before it, it’s possible to adopt the practises and tools of CD without embracing its fundamental principles. This leads to antipatterns and undesirable situations such as the Water-Scrum-Fall phenomenon. For example, a team can invest copious resources in being able to ship code quality daily, but the organisation can only support quarterly release cycles, which increases organisational waste and friction between teams. In this talk, we’ll explore how to spot, fix and avoid such issues, by adopting continuous delivery as a mindset, not a process: * Continuously delivering value and learning, not just software; * Optimising delivery and flow across the whole organisation, not just within tech/product teams. By using practises from service design, streamlining the build > measure > learn cycle and using lean practises, we’ll illustrate how to adopt a continuous delivery mindset holistically, throughout an organisation. Through case studies and sharing the results of experiments our own teams have run, participants will walk away with some actionable tools and practises to bring into their organisations.
