Editor's Notes
- Talking Points: “this is the Home Depot many of you probably know” - Barbara’s choice of THD-related info to voice over
- Talking Points: “This is the Home Depot that may surprise many of you – we are a modern software company” Over 3500 engineers – nearly as many as attending this conference Our engineering community averages nearly 6k git commits per day We write over 90% of the software powering our businesses
- Talking Points: “We’ve been building software for a long time, but we’ve been transforming the way we do it very deliberately the last 4 years” “We are on a journey” We are investing $11.1B in IT We’ve hired over 1000 engineers in the last 2 years We have transitioned from projects to products and experiences Transition: “The challenge of hiring 1000 engineers is ensuring we keep our culture – our most important asset”
- Talking Points: “Values are something we live, and not just something we post on the wall” Transition: “The biggest part of our journey is ensuring we take care of our people” “Here are a couple of ways we do that as a part of our journey”
- Talking Points: “Our Orange Method program is a great example of Taking Care of our People.” Barbara can choose talking points – changing associate lives (cohorts), important piece of talent pipeline in a time where talent is a limited resource. Cohorts, On-going education On-boarding and helping in the hiring process of 1000 people
- NOTES: TODO: New Slide / Graphic Talking Points: “Developer Experience – Ensuring our engineers are productive and happy” “We have a saying… the DX team’s goal is to make the easy thing and the right thing the same thing." “Product-based approach. Understand their needs and motivations. Provide tools they are excited about. Empower them and remove constraints. Measure what works and what doesn’t.” Notes: Can mention Google, Azure, Pivotal, and Github, but we cannot include their logos. Do not mention Slack.
- Talking Points: “Connecting our online and in-store experiences is important for us and our customers. We’ve been recognized in the retail industry for doing so.” “We’ve changed the idea of possible – i.e. we deploy more frequently and with higher quality” “Creating an attractive environment for talented technologists (hiring 1000 engineers)” “All while enhancing the lives of our associates” Forrester Report References: 2017 Forrester – Retail Mobile Web https://www.forrester.com/report/The+Forrester+Retail+Wave+US+Mobile+Web+Q4+2017/-/E-RES137430 2019 Forrester – Retail Mobile App https://go.forrester.com/blogs/just-published-the-forrester-retailer-wave-on-us-mobile-apps/
