No one can anoint you "Agile" or "DevOps”
What this talk is not:
devops 101?
Nope!
10 steps to agile? NOPE
Why I care
Why we suck at change, and how kaizen can help
What is Kaizen and what is not?
Five S's
We are physically built to resist radical change
Examine your beliefs about failure
Errors
Business Optimization:Minimize:●WIP●Waiting●Movement●Defects●Overproduction
How do we choose what to automate?
Options: Most expensive, least
expensive, most boring (boring=error prone)
Bored people quit
Automation failures
You cannot automate creativity.
Nothing good or creative is ever done in a linear
fashion
you can't scale if you are entering data 3 times
Automating the right things
make a tiny but unbreakable promise to yourself. do one small thing, every day. http://zenhabits.net/disciplined/

Examine the explanation you are giving yourself
for their behavior.
What if they had a brain injury that caused their
behavior?
Perceiving
Attending
Understanding
Acting
"I can never expect the people around me to be more open and willing to
improve than I am." Peter Senge, Fifth
Discipline
The reality of devops
"No matter the extensive nature or degree of
foresight incorporated into any prior "plan," there will always be a need for adjustment,
further specification, or even drastic revision"
Clancy, 1997
