The Hyborian Guide to Agile Leadership: Lessons from Cimmeria
What is best in life DevOps?
In the chaotic landscape of modern software development and platform support, the “Kingdoms of Monolith” are falling. To survive, those old legacy “kingdoms” must embrace the speed of Agile and the cold hard steel of DevOps. But tools alone don’t win battles; leadership and culture does.
To understand how to lead a transformation of the scale of transforming a “kingdom”, we look to the rugged age of High Adventure. What better way to start off the year than by examining one of my favorite Christmas films (Don’t fact check me!), the cult classic Conan the Barbarian, at first glance it doesn’t seem like this fantasy tale of swords and sorcery has much to do with the modern world of Devops, but as you’ve seen from previous articles I can make anything about Devops and enjoy using pop culture to broaden understanding of the concepts and tenets of DevOps and Agile leadership. Why not learn about Devops leadership while indulging in some campy fun with a classic Christmas film (If Die hard counts then a story about a guy in a loincloth is basically a nativity play. ) thats the greatest since Gremlins.
