Data & the Science of Leadership
Data makes great decisions. We don’t. Leadership is a science, not an art. The last decision you should make is to never make another decision. Data makes the only great decisions. Get out of its way. Squeaky-wheel meetings are for suckers. When it comes to web development & shopping cart optimization, we now live in an age of ubiquitous A/B tests – even, often A/B/C/D/E/F/G tests. This is *Growth Hacking*. But beyond the web funnel, leaders & the teams along-side of them are still making decisions the old way – fueled by gut & debate. So why isn’t *Leadership Hacking* a thing? Why should strong data-backed decision-making be limited to your web funnel? It shouldn’t. The same disciplined demand for stats & experimentation should be applied to every decision leaders make. We have the desire… & the data… & the algorithms… to make this better. It’s time to embrace the science of leadership. If you’re not looking at data when you make it – then it’s not a decision… it’s a guess.

Kickass Agile Development - Agile & Beyond Conference
Watch Dan Chuparkoff as he shares some of the secrets to kick-ass software development at Atlassian. He gives us a glimpse at a new Agile paradigm. Feedback cycles are short, code quality is awesome, and customers get the features they lust after. Hear how Atlassian uses pull-requests for better code quality; collaborates fast to develop ideas; avoids meetings; tightens feedback loops to fail fast; shortens release cycles and work together happily from different corners of the globe. Sound like paradise? It is!
Ansible ALLTHETHINGS
Learn how in less than 6 months and with a 1-person team, they went from no infrastructure automation, to having all of their infrastructure automated with Ansible. Learn how BigPanda (http://bigpanda.io ) handles zero-downtime infrastructure updates and connects Ansible with their chat infrastructure, and some strategies on managing automation projects with very small teams.
SXSW 2016 - Everything you think about A/B testing is wrong
Everything you've learned about A/B Testing is based on the fundamentally flawed belief that there's one right answer. But the era of mass-market, one-right-answers is over. A/B Testing is our most valuable tool in the battle to create a more engaging web. But our strategy is broken. Don't worry, we can gain a better understanding of our users with a little data science. And we can reinvent A/B Testing... I will show you how.
At Civis Analytics, we specialize in Data Science. From here, we can clearly see that all people are not the same. So why are A/B Tests designed to search for a single solution? In this session I'll show you where A/B Testing is headed next. See you in Austin!
Introduction to JIRA & Agile Project Management
Join me for a brief introduction to JIRA & Agile Project Management. I'll talk about basic Agile concepts. I'll show you basic JIRA planning and working with Scrum and Kanban. And I'll show you the most important reports to master so you can build great software just like Atlassian.
ChatOps FTW
ChatOps works! It creates a common conscience - hive style. It’s also fast & easy. And when every second of downtime hurts, fast & easy is critically important. Join us to hear how BigPanda uses HipChat, Hubot, and Ansible for deploying, monitoring, standups, and for sharing internet cats!
