Do you have any tips for people around the world now joining the remote workforce?
Romnick Acabado
Know your purpose and whys, be optimistic, have proper time management, stress management, self-control, self-care and healthy habits (exercise, get plenty of sleep, meditation, positive vibes from support groups, family and friends) :)

I find that many people around me are trying to do the same thing in a different way. I think we need to apply new thinking, new abilities and new approach. Do different things differently.
Feisal Ismail
Know when to call it a day and stop.

using a big screen helps me feel that people on zoom or TEAMS are closer.

If DevOps was a movie, what would it be and why?
Marc Hornbeek, DevOps_the_Gray esq.
Camelot – the quest for the holy grail of continuous improvement requires collaborative efforts of people (knights of the round table), process (laws of Camelot) and technology (the sword Excalibur)

I think it depends on the organisation. In many cases it tends to be a horror movie...maybe the Texas Chainsaw Massacre...#TheDigitalCoach πŸ˜‚
Romnick Acabado
Avengers Endgame or maybe Whiplash - as we talk about antifragility and excellence. :)
RoseDyson
It would be feel good move with a bit of war strategy, comedy and politics.

Another great movie analog is Days of Thunder...as Mario Andretti put it...if everything is under control, you're going too slow...#TheDigitalCoach πŸ˜‚

@lbmkrishna Avengers for sure.... we are heros hehehe
Aj Ajantha Godahewa

Continuous Testing continues to be a primary bottleneck, Continuous security is a major risk, and Value Stream Management is a major opportunity for improvement.
RoseDyson
I agree. Testing is so important.

- Along with technical skills, we need soft skills as well, passion for continuous learning, experiment and also to share
RoseDyson

DevOps from the cloud view point is vital, but I find that decision makers need to get more DevOps Leadership awareness
Paul Colmer #DevOps πŸŽΈβ˜οΈπŸ›°οΈπŸš€πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί
I think a range of soft skills including: dealing with ambiguity, being open and transparent and communicating in an engaging and informative style. #TheDigitalCoach
BMK
from my personal experience the continuous learning has never stopped, we need to be #continuouslearner, learn from others. The list is dynamic
Aj Ajantha Godahewa
I think technical repertoire in cloud native department would be critical along with knowledge of governance and security.
