Episode notes

T ch people talked us a little bit about how that's translated into how your organization looks like. We have borrowed from it lassian and i'm sure a lot of other places as well, the concept of the triad. At every level of the organization we have a prodic leader, an ingiuater and a designe or so. And if you sort of get enough overlapping t shape people, you can build a really amazing tem I couldn't endorse that enough.

We welcome Jonathan Nolen, Senior VP of Engineering and Product at LaunchDarkly, to talk about his 100+ people Product Delivery team - a term coined by the company, where Engineering, Product, and Design come together.

Tech companies should shift their mindset from building and shipping software to delivering services to customers.
Having Engineering, Product, and Design as one team with shared goals is key for all companies delivering services.
Impact is not just about visibility. Your teams need to articulate what their impact is, preferably in one sentence.
