Join the Movement

Our vision is to provide a business model and a digital platform that is relevant to today’s era of digital disruption. Since 1994 we have fostered a work environment where people can grow and evolve to unleash their best, every day. Our experience is that people deliver astounding results when they are given guidance to ignite their passion and purpose.

empower you to embrace the new

Combining the expertise of the Personal Success Plan, the philosophy of Ikigai (balance and purpose) and skills assessment models, like Dreyfus, we move you from doing the usual work in front of you to being masters at the craft.

work-life balance

Chasing code delivery dates is not fun

The ability to interact with others makes learning more fun

Focus on what matters

Going beyond the pay to job satisfaction.

the value you bring

Starts with you – a sense of achievement through building software that makes a difference

Sharing those achievements

Being recognized for the value you bring

what is in it for you

When I asked my employees what they wanted in a job, 3 things stood out 

Growth in skills and professionalism

Unlock opportunities in career and learning

Work in a great team 

by collaborating and working with people who have the passion, knowledge and experience of developing, operating and testing software using principles from Lean, Agile & DevOps.

We think People and add a little Human Performance Management™

the madness of deadlines and budgets

to being efficient and effective

in building quality software

right first time, every time.

Software Development has changed and continues to change

 

Because the world has tilted and we now have the new normal

Because the way we are working is not working

Because it is now understood that people deliver software, not tools or process

And  the opportunity is for you to be that change.

Insanity is doing the same thing and expecting different results

 

The world is now a digital place with a digital economy driven by software. That world needs quality software

And hey, guess what, insanity is trying to delivery those different results in the way you are working now

You have that opportunity to grow your skills to meet that need

Uncover what inspires you and how you can make a difference in your life and grow

Add value to both yourself and others

A coffee chat; a smoke break; taking opportunities to sharpen your axe

 

It is the story of the wood cutter who takes breaks to sharpen his axe and get the job done efficiently and effectively

face to face intereactions are not always possible, you need a way to reach those who help you in your thinking

interacting with Gurus in your field helps you to become a master of your craft

by enabling yourself you enable others

being part of a growth culture

 

You have value to offer, find people who grow it, appreciate it and want it

 

uncover what inspires you and how you can make a difference in your life

uncover what is holding you back

uncover what you don’t like and how you can improve your work life

grow in order to add value to both yourself and others

To reach a dream; you start by having a dream

 

structure your thinking and growing to develop new skills,

define your goals and take action

to have a guide to your future, you have better control of where you are going

to be able to make better decisions

We create, Communities Of Great Service that fit into the system of software delivery, like well-oiled cogs in a machine.

We change the idea of being an employee that does the work in front of you to deliver to the next deadline

To someone who co-creates value in a team and delivers value to an organisation through an outcomes based service.

Outcomes that are understood and shared by all.

Being a master of your craft.

 

A State of the Art, Social Growth Platform

 

We change the idea of learning on the job, to growth in your value proposition to others.

It breaks the idea of a company ‘paying for you to learn on the job’ or sending you on training

to co-creating value through delivering to desired outcomes (company strategy) and solving problems (constraints and obstacles to success)

We did not want to re-invent the wheel, but we wanted to equip you wih this powerful Community and Learning Mmanagement System with great social learning features. Giving you access to tools and people that will help you in your context.

You are enabled through your connection with a community, enablers (tutors, mentors, coaches, teachers) and our recipes for success.

Engage to find the ME in TEAM

We enable you to engage with like-minded people through a digital community platform (modern digital channels)

Engagement is about buddying-up – helping you understand your context, your challenges and your aspirations

Engage goes beyond the idea of  ‘buy-in’, to commitment. It is through that commitment that you achieve great things

We equip you with the 'Monday to Friday' of what to do in the changing world of software delivery

 

With recipes from Lean, Agile, DevOps and Human Performance Technology,

A recipe we call the Personal Success Plan equips you to find your harmony and purpose at work.

It is a recipe for Ikigai

with on demand support from forums, social networks and enablers

A growth path and a growth management system tailored to your needs

And how you bake the cake is up to you,

This freedom key ingredient for happiness at the work place.

Conclusion

Just as the individual elements of the Apple iPhone (think Palm Pilot and Blackberry) were not unique, the way Steve Jobs put it together made it a game changer.

The individual components of DevOpsQA may not be unique, the way we have put it together is a game changer. 

The concept is called EXAPTATION 

Our definition is delivering software in new and exciting ways.
