Camille Fournier Former CTO, Rent the Runway, at Fastly Altitude 2016 Building and scaling great teams isn’t just something that managers do alone, with spreadsheets and workflows and process documents. Great teams come from the participation of the group to push the team there. In this talk we will investigate how you can think about your role in scaling a high-performance team, whatever your job title. From interviewing future coworkers, to communicating with your colleagues, to dealing with failure and growing as a individual and group, we will go through some of the challenges that come with scaling a culture, and how everyone on the team plays a part in its success.

Be transparent about structure and seek out learning from failure. • Practice relating to your colleagues as humans. Trust their good intentions. Apologize when you screw up. • Don’t settle for an environment where you can’t ask questions and have active discussion.

- This is first because it is most straightforward but also most essential story
- “At work, do I have the opportunity to do what I do best every day?”
- don’t create unnecessary us vs them by constraining the resource of delivery frequency
- Impatient on behalf of your team
- learning and transparency When we asked people in the startup community how they thought about structure, the words they used weren’t exactly positive: “slow,” “unnecessary,” “innovation-crushing,” and “bureaucratic” were the most common ones.
- inevitable, required for scaling “Complex systems can only be built from simple systems” Good structure is not a burden lowering the required activation energy, focus Structure is a flexible, iterative tool to guide how work gets managed.
- changes in structure are the outcome of a culture that is learning and growing structure encodes prior learning
- structure comes out of learning from failure leadership is willing to make hard decisions and take ownership for failure
- they didn’t just throw their hands up and say structure is bad let’s canoe across the water skyscrapers

- At work, do my opinions seem to count?
- Take advantage of the relatedness you’ve built up and the trust you’re building by using it to extract opinions High-bandwidth communication opportunity, coordination is expensive so use it well
- move fast, learn, care about your colleagues, and don’t waste your time in a place where you can’t ask questions As a team we contribute more than we can individually, can’t do that if we don’t communicate
- If we are willing to stand fully in our own shoes and never give up on ourselves, then we will be able to put ourselves in the shoes of others and never give up on them.
- What’s the point in scaling if you end up in a company full of people you hate?
