Not since the dot-com boom (and bust) has the tech industry required such agility and adaptability – two words that have been cornerstones of the software engineering world since its inception.
Yet, like many buzzwords, agility and adaptability have lost much of their impact. It is important to consider another word: actionability. Every organization wants to be nimble and flexible, but not every team has the knowledge or the experience to achieve this.
These five tech leaders offer insights on how to build a flexible and dynamic team: Scott Lewis, Vice President of Engineering at APiO; Jonathan Rayback, Vice President of Engineering at Evernym; Heidi Helfand, Director of R&D Excellence at Procore Technologies and author of Dynamic Reteaming: The Art and Wisdom of Changing Teams; Mike Rasmussen, Data Center Site Manager at Facebook; and Nikola Milanovic, Solutions Architect at Apple.
