Is SRE is the new hotness at your organization? Have you been hired or recently promoted as your company's first or senior SRE leader?
Have you been given a mandate to start introducing SRE usage but are not sure where to begin? Tired of the pager going off without rhyme or reason and wonder how you can shift the pattern?

If you've ever found yourself saying, "But seriously... how do I take all of these cool blogs and videos and have this translate to something real and valuable for my team and organization? I just need to get this done and I need to do it now." then this session is for you.
