💬 What makes DevOps, SRE, and Platform Engineering actually work in an organisation? In this week’s throwback post, I’m sharing insights from a past conversation with Matthew Skelton. We explored why the real benefits of DevOps and SRE come to organisations willing to rethink their culture, decision-making, and ways of working. Success isn’t about creating isolated teams but about empowering semi-autonomous groups to make decisions with full context. Matthew explained that companies who struggled with SRE often built separate SRE teams to manage production—effectively returning to old-school DevOps challenges. The same goes for platform engineering: expecting platform teams to remove all developer challenges misses the mark. The goal is to enable, not take over.

💬 Are businesses ready for the next generation of digital natives? In my conversation with Christopher Stura, Director at PwC, we explored the challenges businesses face in adapting to the expectations of millennials, Gen Z, and Gen Alpha—generations used to instant gratification and getting things for free. 📱 These digital natives won’t tolerate the old ways, and if companies stop investing in tech, their customers could disappear overnight. The pandemic only reinforced how essential technology is in every aspect of business—from ordering a pint at the pub 🍺 to running entire operations. Tech isn't just a tool anymore; it’s the backbone of modern businesses.
