During the DevOps Enterprise Summit 2019 in Las Vegas, the authors of the “Team Topologies: Organizing Business and Technology Teams for Fast Flow” book - Matthew Skelton and Manuel Pais were interviewed by SolutionIQ’s Stas Zvinyatskovsky for the Agile Amped Podcast.

We spoke to Mark Phillips - author of Reinventing Communications - to discover insights into modern organizational dynamics from the viewpoint of project management and program management.

Emily Webber is the author of the book Building Successful Communities of Practice and recently did extensive research (with anthropologist Professor Robin Dunbar) into the size and engagement dynamics of various communities of practice with a particular focus on how the group dynamics change as the group size crosses certain thresholds. The research was published in the academic publication PLOS ONE.

We spoke to Emily about her research and what the implications are for designing and evolving organizations.

We’re pleased to launch a new online interactive training series covering essential Team Topologies concepts and patterns with training led by the authors of Team Topologies, Matthew Skelton and Manuel Pais.

The training sessions have been designed for the new remote-first, post-pandemic world. The sessions are 4 hours long (with breaks), making them suitable for people in multiple different timezones to join. The sessions are:

• TT04 - Principles & Practices for Stream-Aligned Teams

• TT05 - Reducing Cognitive Load with Supporting Topologies

• TT06 - Evolving Responsive Organizations

• TT07 - Team Boundaries and Architecture for Fast Flow

Each session covers a different set of Team Topologies ideas and concepts with links between sessions to connect the concepts. Each session is fully independent and valuable by itself, but when taken together as a set of four, the sessions provide a complete coverage of the essential Team Topologies ideas.
