A Short Story about How a Fictional, Faster-Growing Financial Institution Scaled Automated Governance across a Large Enterprise
The goal of this paper is to help enterprises rethink their approach to governance and how software is built inside larger organizations. Using a fictionalized story, this paper will highlight the importance of trust, how to tackle policy at scale, address standardization across the enterprise, and embrace ways to promote communication. By introducing concepts, tools, and ideas to reimagine governance at scale, we hope to convey a more humane way to enable high-velocity software delivery that inspires trust and is inherently more secure.
Thank you to reviewers Andres Vega and John Rzeszotarski.
