I’ve spent most of my career studying how organizations improve their software and trying to share it with others. My book, Monolithic Transformation, collects the last five years of what I’ve found. You can get it free, thanks to Pivotal, and also in Safari.

Here’s a 90 minute talk based on the book:

Other formats & related talks

• A presentation – putting everything into one talk is impossible, but I speak on this topic frequently anyhow. There’s several versions, by length:
  • 30 minutes – very brief, and the most Pivotal-pitching: recording and slides.
  • ~50 minutes – the talk length most people can tolerate: recording and slides.
  • 90 minutes – the lecture/workshop version: recording and slides.
• Rethinking Enterprise Architecture – the role of enterprise architects is ill-defined in all of this, but vital for success. Here’s my rough notes on the part EAs play and how they need to change: recording and slides.
• What even is “culture”? – a large part of transformation is changing your culture, we’re told. What exactly is that and, more importantly, what are some tactics for doing it? Recording and slides.
