The book Accelerate has been very influential in the industry. This month we will have Juan Pablo give us a case study on how he put the concepts there into practice.

Increasing Tempo - How we accelerated Splice Engineering delivery using industry insights & data.

The Splice Engineering team grew almost ten times in eighteen months. The delivery practices that worked for us when we were five broke way before we got to fifty. We wanted our organization to learn faster than the market; to do this, we had to find a way to unlock our delivery. We used insights found on the State of DevOps Report & Accelerate the book. With this knowledge & the help of metrics to visualize our delivery, we were able to get back on a high-performance track.

This talk tells the story of how we used data to engineer the performance of our engineering organization & gives you practical takeaways on how you can do it too.
