Developer productivity is a matter of business efficiency. But fixating on metrics like cycle time and speed to ship reduces software development to a chore – especially at a time when developers are expected to do a lot more than code. As leaders we must ask ourselves: are my developers actually experiencing the joy of creation that brought them here in the first place? Atlassian believes fostering “developer joy” is the secret to reconnecting with the love of the craft by removing friction and empowering teams. After all, happy developers aren't simply more efficient. The passion they pour into their work results in better software! Atlassian’s President, Anu Bharadwaj, will reveal the key ingredients (and challenges) to creating a culture of developer joy in any organization including how to elevate it as a company-wide goal and define success metrics. She will also walk the audience through examples of how focusing on the developer experience internally has helped Atlassian deliver more value to customers, and share her outlook on the future of developer joy in an AI-driven world.
