We have learnt a lot along the way
❖ How to collaborate
➢ Small teams are more efficient
➢ Cross functional teams reduces dependencies
➢ Product & Engineering objectives are interdependent
➢ There are big differences between being a Scrum Master, Navigator & Tech leads
➢ There is a difference between letting other people speak and listening
❖ How to scale
➢ Automation is the only way forward as the product grows
➢ 24/7 support is necessary
➢ Dev complete does not mean deployable
➢ Quality is not negotiable
❖ How to be productive
➢ Getting things done is more important than logging time
➢ Self Management is really challenging
➢ People management is important
While having improved, we are still seeing some challenges
As we mitigate one problem new
ones are unearthed.

Production Issues
