Death Of The Spotify Model Gijs Meijer & Marcin Pakulnicki GOTO 2022

This presentation was recorded at GOTO Amsterdam 2022. #GOTOcon #GOTOams Gijs Meijer - IT lead of retail banking products at ING Bank Netherlands Marcin Pakulnicki - Head of IT at Daily Banking Tribe at ING Bank Netherlands ORIGINAL TALK TITLE Death of The Spotify Model: On Radical Productivity Improvements at Enterprise Scale ABSTRACT Many ‘productivity’ talks are filled with abstractions on how to create ‘high performing teams’. Many of them use ‘Agile’ concepts which sound nice for the internet and often work for a particular use case, but how do you actually scale improvements across a large IT enterprise? All this while maintaining engineering happiness, and delivering on your projects? In 2015, the busdevops way of working aka ‘The Spotify Model’ helped ING Bank to a next level of Agile way of work. It brought us many nice things, but we identified some issues along the way and we will cover them in the presentation. After 5 years, it was time to take the next steps. This talk describes the good, the bad and the ugly when you want to establish a (large scale) top engineering culture and highly performant IT departments where technology is a first-class citizen.
