Do you want to learn how to boost your productivity at individual, team, and organisational levels? If so, this presentation is for you. Individual productivity is about increased focus, frequent feedback, and reduced friction. Team productivity is about “flow over utilisation” and integration. Organisational productivity is about allocating effort, reducing relearning, and taking parallel bets. By the end of this presentation, you will better understand how to improve productivity at different scales and contexts.

2. Overall Key Points
● Feeling productive is not the same as being
productive – be wary about focusing solely on “developer
experience”
● Productivity is about efficient production of value, not
just throughput of stuff
● There are different strategies for the different levels of
productivity (individual, team, and organisation). Need to
address all of them.
3. 3 Fs for individual productivity
Focus Feedback Friction
5. Multi-tasking feels more responsive…
Could you do A for me? Yes, of course.
Could you do B for me? Yes, of course.
Could you do C for me? Yes, of course.
Could you do D for me? Yes, of course.
15. Friction is everything about a task that makes it difficult to
complete.
NOTE: Friction can also
be process-related
16. KEY POINT: Friction is not as important as
focus and feedback, but it can add up AND
affects developer experience.
17. Team productivity isn’t just just adding up
individual productivity. It doesn’t work that
way.
Team productivity isn’t about developer
experience so much as work product
experience.
18. 2 Fs for team productivity
Flow Frequent integration
32. KEY POINT: If you parallelise to reduce
bottlenecks, Start Together and Integrate
Frequently
33. Organisational productivity isn’t just just adding up team
productivity. It doesn’t work that way.
Organisational productivity isn’t about the flow of a single
initiative so much as optimising across all initiatives.
37. Tactics to reduce to relearning
● Shared learning sessions (e.g., brown bags, lunch and
learns, demos, retrospectives, post-mortems, etc.)
● Collaborative practices (e.g., pair programming, whole
team programming, architecture decision records, etc.)
38. KEY POINT: Organisations that only need to
learn something once are more productive
than organisations that need to learn the
same thing repeatedly.
46. Overall Key Points
● Feeling productive is not the same as being
productive – be wary about focusing solely on “developer
experience”
● Productivity is about efficient production of value, not
just throughput of stuff
● There are different strategies for the different levels of
productivity (individual, team, and organisation). Need to
address all of them.
