Conway's Law tells us that organisations mirror the systems they build. In an era of (µ)SOA systems, what does that tell us about delivery organisations and how they need to work?

Lightning Talk: This Is The Sound of All Of UsMartin Burns
This is the sound of all of us
Singing with love and the will to trust
Leave the rest behind it will turn to dust
This is the sound of all of us
The Wailin' Jennies - One Voice
Often we talk about the power of small, self-organising groups of people, working collaboratively. Lyssa Adkins gives a beautiful example of a string quartet in her powerful book on coaching on how the quartet members work together and communicate constantly throughout a performance. Some of the most powerful music of the last century has come from pairs of writers and performers working intimately together - George and Ira Gershwin. Lennon and McCartney. Simon and Garfunkel.
But music, like software, often seeks to deliver work at a larger scale and with more complexity than a single, self-organising team can manage. And seeks to do so with unpredictable skill levels of the performers. What lessons can music teach us about the problems and potential workarounds of scaled delivery of creative work?
Using more musical examples than deserve to fit in 10 minutes, Martin Burns brings 40 years of musical experience and formal education from his first career to bear on the problems of his current day job.
Adaptive Delivery at Scale With the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe)Martin Burns
It is not enough to want adaptive delivery; you need to know what to do.
Traditional Agile Delivery does not map the territory of Scale well. We need a better map.
Independence and Centralisation: Power Structures in Delivery OrganisationsMartin Burns
A hugely interesting outcome of the Independence Referendum has been the growth in interest in questions that previously only attracted political geeks of the wide staring eyed variety.
The rise in political interest has allowed us to reimagine what kind of country should Scotland be, and how closely should it be adapted to its context, and a conscious seeking of models that might serve as inspiration to what Scotland could be, regardless of the referendum outcome.
