How can an engineering maturity assessment catalyze and drive a culture of excellence and performance?
Clem Pickering, Principal Consultant at Conflux, has shared insights at Leeds Testing Atelier on May 13th, 2025 demonstrating how to drive both performance and wellbeing across organizations delivering digital services.
Many organizations struggle with the shift to product-centric, fast flow operating models, despite their proven benefits. This session revealed how assessment provides the critical first steps toward a generative culture.
For organizations to truly excel with digital services, they must evolve from pathological or bureaucratic cultures, where information is hoarded or constrained by rules, to generative cultures characterized by proactive information sharing and collaborative problem-solving. A generative culture is essential for delivering digital services rapidly, safely, and sustainably.
The cost of inefficient operating models typically runs into millions of dollars annually. Learn how to overcome these challenges through:
Empowered teams that reduce dependencies and accelerate value delivery.
Strategic performance measurement that provides actionable insights for leaders.
Active Knowledge Diffusion (AKD) that spreads excellence across team boundaries.
Discover how to transform your organization's digital delivery capabilities with approaches that simultaneously improve business outcomes and staff wellbeing. This session revealed the vital connection between team empowerment, generative culture, and the regular, small-batch releases that characterize high-performing organizations.
Key takeaways:
Understanding how assessment tools drive both performance and wellbeing simultaneously.
Learned practical approaches to establish effective metrics for executive decision-making.
Gained insights into creating heatmaps that identify both blockers and pockets of excellence.
Successful digital transformation doesn't require reinventing your organization — it demands intelligent evolution through proven practices like those found in Team Topologies and the Adapt Together™ approach.
