Those who stay the course grow as individuals

They say the only constant is change. There is no place where this is more true than in the modern workplace.

In the last two years alone we’ve started using Slack, Zoom, Google Docs, and GMail at Iress. Every one of these has been a big upgrade over previous tools.
We’ve started moving away from old siloed approaches towards a DevOps culture. We’ve started our CI/CD journey. People in our 17 global offices are on AWS training and new developments are done with the cloud in mind.
Even non-dev teams are adopting the Iress delivery framework. People are more agile, collaborative and t-shaped. Teams are more cross functional, aware of how work flows and conscious of work in progress.
But with change comes discomfort and a steep learning curve. Not every change is successful or immediately celebrated. In fact most changes are initially resisted purely because its unfamiliar and adoption requires effort.
But those who stay the course grow as individuals, as teams and ultimately as organizations. And if you grow, you earn the right to differentiate yourself, survive and flourish.
Special mention to Iress colleagues Andrew Todd for challenging us to think bigger, Michael Stange for helping us see the value of flow and Mahesh Thiyagarajan for keeping us moving forward.
