Post "Accelerate" Part Deux: Why are we still failing at adopting DevOps in the Enterprise?
Talk given at Stockholm Tech Show 2026 – in Stockholm May 27, 2026.
Reflecting on decades of experience working with the largest enterprises around Europe I try to give you my take on why we fail at changing anything in the enterprise and give you my take on what to do about it.
In order to change anything we need to rid ourselves of
The kryptonite of change:
- Talking about change
- Planning change
- Meetings about change
- Status reports about change
- Reviews about change
- Documentation about change
- Seminars about change
- Post-it®s about change
- Everything which is about change but not the actual change
Then realise that the powerOf(forgiveness) > powwerOf(permission) and actually do the change.
