Infrastructure and Ops Hour with Sam Newman: Building Successful Engineering Communities with Emily Webber

Join us for a special conversation on building successful communities with Sam Newman and Agile consultant and coach Emily Webber. They’ll chat about the benefits of communities of practice, which include accelerating professional development, breaking down organizational silos, enabling knowledge sharing and management, building better practices, helping to hire and retain staff, and making people happier. Then they’ll open the floor for questions.

This is a chance for you to ask Sam and Emily anything you want about their own career journeys or about using communities to facilitate good collaboration between teams. They’ll spend a few minutes covering the trends that are influencing infrastructure, then tell you what you need to know to stay ahead of the curve.
