The human part of (biz)devops – everyone ́s responsibility for the team

Abstract

With working in a philosophy like (biz)devops the diversity of the stakeholders is a characteristic cornerstone. Although diversity includes an incredible opportunity for the success of each team, it could at the same time be the most demanding problem for one or more of the individuals in it. These underlying causes may effect the communication and the behaviour in a team and raise up external events, which distract the stakeholders from their real tasks and require too much time and energy in working on it.

Everyone is in charge of monitoring his own personal attitude related to diversity and to the other stakeholder. But all members of a team are responsible for controlling their internal rules of behaviour and communication to be able to use the opportunities of diversity.

In this session you will see

• why it is so important to develop a framework with rules of communication and behaviour for a working team culture
• how a personal attitude can influence communication and behaviour (Thomas A. Harris)
• how our inner team could be a motivator or an obstacle (Friedemann Schulz von Thun)
• why respect and tolerance are necessary values
• how a feedback culture can influence your team in a positive way
• what leadership has to do with it.
