This is a short talk I used to open a brownbag session on DevOps at a local bank.
I've been wanting to stress the people side of DevOps for a while, and this went over pretty well. An interesting discussion followed.
It appears the challenges of "divided KPI's" and "CAPEX vs. OPEX" are shared by many larger companies.

Talk given by Michael DeHaan and Greg DeKoenigsberg at All Things Open in October 2014, in which we discussed how we applied open source best practices to grow a large and active community of users and developers.
This presentation discusses how anyone from a 'newbie' to a 'ninja' can get involved in Drupal.
Original session description:
This topic will be all about how to contribute to the Drupal community, in a number of different areas. While there'll be information for the hackers, even if you have only ever installed Drupal, you can help the project you know and love become even better.
Topics covered will include:
- Participation? Feh. What's in it for me?
- Community philosophy: Whys and Hows, Dos and Donts.
- Documentation: Helping other people not bash their heads against the same stuff you have.
- Helping with user support: Or, how to have a never-ending supply of clients.
- Maneuvering issue queues with speed and finesse.
- Patch review strategies that would make Dries proud.
- Taking control I: How to help get bugs fixed, and features in, even if you're not a coder.
- Taking control II: CVS, Patch, and how to use them to fix all that stuff you wish worked
Can we write successful enterprise software without challenging assumptions? Agile doesn't happen in a vacuum. Here's what I discovered using EventStorming as a blade to cut through business, software and organisation dysfunctions. From XP2017 Cologne.

1. Iterating towards Bethlehem
(or, making the shift from a “packaged software”guy
to a “hosted services” guy)
August 2, 2006 :: SVPMA
Michael Sippey
GM, TypePad :: Six Apart, Ltd.
2. About me.
http://sippey.typepad.com/
(Lifelong geek, English major, writer, product
manager, consultant, business guy, blogger, amateur
designer, spreadsheet geek, father of two.)
3. About the title of this deck.
W.B. Yeats, “Slouching Towards Bethlehem”
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
14. Market Validation
Is the market real?
How big is the market?
Does the product fit the market?
What are the sales costs?
15. How we did it.
Find 30 prospects. Set up meetings.
Demo your idea / alpha / beta / product.
Ask questions. (Lots of questions.)
Take copious notes. Score your results.
16. Critical questions.
Do you have this problem?
Does this solve your problem?
How much would you pay for this?
Base hit or home run?
How would you spend $100 of our money?
40. July 4th weekend, 2005:
TypePad 1.6
“Let’s change how users design their blogs. And
how they’re rendered. And how users manage
their communities. And most of the app’s
JavaScript. I mean, hey! If it’s this big already,
what’s one more thing? We get more bang out of
QA, right?”
41. What went wrong that weekend
scarred everyone involved.
(“Dude, you just had to be there.”)
42. We didn’t learn right away,
though.
We had to iterate to iterate.
43. What’s the right periodicity?
One month
Three weeks
One week
A release every two weeks
52. Make the customer part of the
team.
The whole team sees the $$ metrics.
Support staff and support ticket DB.
Motivation, feature and usability research.
Eating our own dogfood.
(And it doesn’t hurt that we’re in the megaphone
business.)
