Contribution as Team Topologies Valued Practitioner (TTVP)
João is an early adopter of Team Topologies in his consultancy practices. When the book was published, he integrated it into Domain-Driven Design training. His customers could use the concepts to discuss software and team boundaries and how those interact with each other. He wrote about his journey at ABN AMRO, where he was part of the DevOps transformation program. Team Topologies were applied to several departments during his time to visualise and discuss the upcoming change. He is an executive advisor, using the Team Topologies to explain why any evolutionary journey is non-linear; he profoundly believes in the old saying: "Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.". As such, he works as enabler within the organizations to create a sustainable cadence of change. The tiny line between change and chaos agent! :)
