I worked within IBM garage, it's not 'any team of people', it's a specific organization that mostly does services work. Their 'secret sauce' is that they're trying to consult on technology and company culture at the same time, in line with Conway's lay.
I.E. If you want to be more agile you'll want to adopt CI/CD, if you want micro services you'll want smaller more autonomous dev teams.
- jdbernard 6y agoYes but the parent's point is that the term "garage" has nothing to do with how or where the team actually works. It's a make-believe name chosen because of its association/connotation, not because of any actual grinding in reality.
- jonfw 6y agoThere is a physical garage (more of a hipster warehouse styled co-working space) that the org no longer fits entirely in, but was still in use up until Covid hit. The plan pre-covid was to build more of these spaces to use for co-working sessions with clients.
