DevOps Culture - Role Cards

Are you a coach, a trainer or a change agent on a mission to help your organization or your clients embrace DevOps? Are you tired of hitting the wall while trying to explain to people that DevOps is neither just Jenkins, AWS/automation nor a separate role/new department?

This DevOps Culture simulation is exactly the tool you need!

One of the most effective simulations on the market, it helps to visualize typical dysfunctions of a large enterprise pre-DevOps. In three short sprints, your group will learn about optimizing flow, will practice amplifying feedback loop, experience the benefits of cross-training and will feel the difference DevOps culture can make!

The game scales well to groups from 7 to over 50 people and is designed for a broad audience.

Please note, this set is NOT a stand-alone game, you will need to purchase additional supplies (as described in the Workshop Supplies Checklist).
