Quite interesting
article re top-down, bottom-up motion in other companies. I always thought top-down was the way, because we once tried bottom-up adoption with our platform customers (aka developers), but it caused the management to spend 3 months on never-ending meetings with discussions that lead to a dead end afterward. After various attempts to be democratic, our management made the top-down decision which… caused us another 6 months of DX adoption. Now everything works smoothly, but this whole experience, ambiguous opinions (e.x. as Sam Newman said:
Ops buy, devs use) made me wonder which side has less negative consequences. I know there’s no one right answer, but I’d like to hear your opinions on it.
