I'd put systems thinker as the first critical skill, for a simple reason: all other skills are related to being able to think in systems. Technical and social!

Thanks for this great article providing the essence of the emerging approach 🙏

But I must add that this is also (and probably above all) the leaders’ responsibility to drive such change by incentivizing the developers based on their business impact. That's why the developers performance should be measured with right metrics.

Thank you, Gilad! As engineering leaders, those actions also apply, and I'm trying to do them more!
