Very nice kids playing with lego intro analogy about creativity, sharing and colaboration.
## The golden brick
- The brick could get picked up and sometimes picking it up is mandatory
- Devemopment in close colab and trust with users
- Focus on good enough instead of perfect but everyone is unhapy
### Guidelines
- API first: Define a speration beween users and services with abstractions
- Self services: Freedom of choice and combination
- Constraints that are soft and can be modified on feedback
### Offers
- Kubernetes as a service
- Runtime as a Service: NAmespace as a service with argo and without cluster access
- Problem: Users want kubeapi access
- Method: Talk with the users
- Solution: Zero Trust proxy that provides operational access to kubeapi via OIDC
- There are multiple APIs that can be combined -> You need constraints
### What's needed
- Conversation
- Trust
- Striking a balance
## The human aspect
- Treat people as colleagues instead of customers
- Build empathy to reach a ballanced "good enough"
- Lead with transparency: Publish your metrics
- Visit their context
- Explore unknowns together
- Create a shared understanding of challenges
### Team culture
- Know who you are helping an who helps you
- Empower them to shine by getting to know their context
- Hear them out in small meetings ore in person
## Platform maturity
