Platform engineering is the discipline of designing and building toolchains and workflows that enable self-service capabilities for software engineering organizations in the cloud-native era.

Platform Engineering

1) have champions of the vision 
2) highlight wins weekly when people adhere to the vision
3) be ok with object lessons when people don’t
4) have clear business outcomes outlined - have engineers give solutions to them
5) be aware this model puts a lot on your tech leads to curate and write down a shared technical strategy 

it comes down to leadership 

Thank you <@U033HAUVBBJ> really appreciate you taking the time to respond. :+1:

<@U03ENDV3CCB> I think you might be describing what's know as "inner source" - there are quite alot of opinionated info on the web about the subject e.g. <https://resources.github.com/innersource/fundamentals/>

Thanks <@U04H611AAV8> . I also recently came across <https://innersourcecommons.org/> which is also a really useful i've found.

You have mentioned this already in your question, but re-iterating - definitely add standards work right from the beginning. People like having specific rules to follow when they do something new (especially for worj that’s not necessarily part of their own deliverables)
