Why I stopped with Scrum Masters and started calling them Flow Masters instead
In the rise of Agile across the globe, the role of Scrum Masters has become immensely popular and labelled as essential for Agile organisations. Although there is a lot of value in it, it is time to move on. To re-name it. To re-think it. To label it towards the things we’re trying to achieve. To its intent.
João Rosa - Independant Consultant - TTVP
João is an independent consultant focused on supporting organisations in creating purposeful systems. As part of his consultancy practice, he helps organisations bridge their strategy to execution. He is passionate about the evolution of sociotechnical systems. Read even more about him here.
Why should I care about sociotechnical systems?
The craft of software design, architecture, and engineering is in constant change. Technology evolves, and our skills and practices evolve as well. How about the teams we are part of? And the organisations? The evolution at the team and organisation level is slower but more disruptive. Our brain likes routine, and it is hardwired that way. However, everything around us evolves.
How do all of those dimensions play together? How can we thrive in our craft? As software designers, architects or engineers, we should also be aware of the implications of technology changes in the teams and the organisation. We work in sociotechnical systems, and we create sociotechnical systems. It sounds like the movie Inception, doesn't it?
Join me in this talk, where I will share my insights on the skills needed to design sociotechnical systems and how we, as a community, can learn from each other.
