Can I use this for DevOps maturity assessments?

Yes, it specifically includes frameworks for assessing DORA metrics (Deployment Frequency, Lead Time, MTTR, and Change Failure Rate) to evaluate and improve DevOps performance.

How does this skill help with team restructuring?

It provides standardized workflows for moving from functional to product-based teams, extracting platform teams, and ensuring team boundaries align with your desired technical architecture using Conway's Law.

What are 'team interface contracts' in this context?

They are formal definitions of how teams interact, including technical API schemas, uptime SLAs, handoff protocols (like Design-to-Engineering), and clearly defined decision rights.

What stakeholder mapping frameworks are included?

The skill includes the Power-Interest Matrix for engagement strategies, RACI/DACI for decision rights, and influence network mapping to identify project champions and blockers.

Acerca de

This skill provides a comprehensive framework for engineering leaders and architects to design effective organizational structures that align with technical architecture. It enables users to map stakeholder influence networks using Power-Interest matrices, define clear team interface contracts including APIs and SLAs, and assess organizational maturity through DORA or CMMC metrics. By applying principles like Conway's Law and the four fundamental Team Topologies, it helps organizations reduce cognitive load, improve cross-team collaboration, and successfully navigate complex change initiatives.
