Hi folks, I published an article on my experience with building / designing platform organizations. The first article focuses on defining your purpose (what it is, why it matters, and how to do it). It's a follow up from my PlatformCon talk earlier this year. Love any feedback!

I put this in my backlog

Incredible article Michael! Shared on Twitter :)

One way to look at this platform thing is specialisation - e.g. if there's no platform team can we be sure that all needed work is done efficiently or at all. I think your initial focus areas speak of the same.

That was a great article, @Michael Galloway! Are you still planning on writing the follow-up articles? Would love to keep learning from your experiences.

Thanks @Ed Acee! In fact I did write a follow up to that one (and plan to write 2 more after this one). https://medium.com/@michael.roy.galloway/your-platform-org-needs-a-vision-heres-how-to-get-started-7e571d54db13?source=social.linkedin
