Trust is essential for high performing teams, but building it requires more than good intentions. In this session, we explore how DevOps principles and practices and the metrics behind them create visibility, accountability, and confidence across teams and stakeholders. Through real world stories tied to key performance indicators, we’ll uncover how these measures not only improve delivery but also strengthen trust from the individual level to the organizational culture. Finally, we’ll look at what it takes to build an environment where these practices thrive, where teams have clarity, autonomy, and the ability to act within their circle of control. By connecting metrics, trust, and culture, you’ll gain insights on enabling sustainable success without falling into blind optimism or rigid oversight.
