FINANCIAL
JUSTIFICATION
“It’s great that our CEO
wants to move to the Cloud.
I have to produce results, so
justify that this is worth my
time and resources!”

“If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!
The Cloud may be ‘trendy’,
but Security is not where we
should be experimenting!”
CLOUD OPERATING
MODEL
“We don’t have the right
structure for this.
Do we change before,
after, or during our
cloud initiative?”
FINDING &
GROWING TALENT
“Just because a few smart
people have a plan doesn’t
mean we have the Talent to
pull this off!”
CLOUD STRATEGY &

CLOUD OPERATING MODEL
DevOps Is Not An Operating Model – It’s a Discipline
DevOps is the discipline of applying
Software Development tools and practices to
the problem space of IT Operations and Security.
Communication, collaboration, team integration,
and interdependence are outcomes achieved
through the application of DevOps practices.
DEVOPS REDEFINED
CLOUD OPERATING MODEL
Leverage Guiding Principles to Manage Teams Toward Outcomes (Not Tasks)
10 GUIDING PRINCIPLES FOR CLOUD OPERATIONS
1. Embrace Agile Methods
2. Automate Everything
3. Design for Testability
4. Avoid Pre-Optimization
5. Favor Single Purpose
6. Managed Services First
7. Platform over Partners
8. Buy over Build
9. Experiment
10. Build Interdependent Teams
FINDING & GROWING TALENT
YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG IF…
1. You overvalue experience over talent
2. You undervalue behavioral aptitude
3. You do not offer or enable personal purpose
4. You are not transparent
5. You do not facilitate and foster tolerance of
ideas, choices, and failures
FINDING & GROWING TALENT
Successful Cloud Transformation Requires the Right Chemistry
Fail fast, review often to
maximize results
Fast and Focused
Achieving Cloud transformation
requires teams that engage in
multi-functional outcomes
Cross-Functional Teams
Freedom to
experiment leads to
innovation
Venture Mindset
Leadership alignment
and engagement
enables progress
towards clear goals
Strategic Vision
Cloud
Adoption
A rewarding culture attracts
and grows a talented workforce
Talent
Effective self-disruption
requires targeted doses of
exploration, energy and
innovation along with widely
engaged leadership
1. Financial Justification
2. Cloud Security & Compliance
3. Cloud Operating Model
4. Finding & Growing Talent
Consider…
