LFI Conf 23 | Pirmin Schuermann, Principal Engineer, Xero | You Are The Resistance

Pirmin Schuermann, Principal Engineer, Xero

In a 2019 panel discussion the late Richard Cook noted that sometimes making change in organizations can akin to a guerilla movement. Communities of Practice represent a place for people to share information, strategies, and make change - with or without formally authority to do so.

In this talk you'll learn more about the Communities of Practice concept and how to get started within your own organization. Both internal and industry CoPs are an oppotunity to find people to learn with and from other and to think outside your own company-box.

Learning from Incidents (LFI) is a community challenging conventional views and reshaping how the software industry thinks about incidents, software reliability, and the critical role people play in keeping their systems running.In today’s economy, software organizations can’t afford to not learn from incidents.

LFI Conference is made possible by the financial and planning support of the Jeli team. Nora Jones, Founder and CEO of Jeli, founded the LFI community and website as a way to show organizations how to get more ROI out of their most powerful investments -- their incidents.
