SUMMARY:DevOps Vancouver Meetup: May 2020
DESCRIPTION:We have another great line-up of speakers and a diverse range o
 f topics at our May DevOps Vancouver Meetup! Webinar link below.\n\nHere
 ’s the evening’s line-up:\n\nMandasmita (Smita) Singh – “4 Hats of
  Coaching/Consulting/Mentoring & Teaching in Agile/DevOps”\n\nThe busine
 ss world has become increasingly complex and continues to change. Workers 
 have evolved from industrial to knowledge workers\, requiring a fine balan
 ce between control and autonomy – one tool or technique cannot be used t
 o drive cultural change\, the toolkit needs to include multiple approaches
 . Smita will share her journey as a change leader and wearer of multiple h
 ats while working with organizations and teams.\n\nSmita is a seasoned Agi
 le Leader\, Certified Professional Coach\, Scaled Agile Program Consultant
 \, and Senior Scrum Master at WorkSafeBC. She has lived and worked in thre
 e countries and for over 20 years\, has led and managed several large\, co
 mplex IT programs and projects in a variety of industries including Financ
 e\, e-Commerce\, Healthcare\, Telecommunications and Insurance. Smita love
 s working with individuals\, teams and organizations in their Lean/Agile a
 doption and transition journey. She knows change is hard and takes time\, 
 which is why she meets teams and organizations where they are in their jou
 rney\, and partners with them in their transformation. Smita is passionate
  about lifelong learning and looks for opportunities to continuously learn
  and grow.\n\nShlomo Bielak – “DevOps Battle Scars - The Human Toll Me
 asured”\n\nIndustry is focused on business and technical achievements of
  DevOps implementations as part of digital transformations. The toll and t
 oil leaves thought-leaders and influencers with memories they want to forg
 et and don't measure. Approaching digital transformation from the human im
 pact perspective was a heavy driver at NCR and resulted in measured metric
 s that impacted lives. We all have battle scars when pushing for change\; 
 development\, operations\, security\, data analytics. These personas have 
 a measurable human impact which is removed/improved yet we forget them\, e
 ven as a valuable metric. While pain exists\, no one discusses it\; when i
 t’s solved\, it’s forgotten. What are enterprises forgetting to measur
 e? Shlomo will explore how they did so at NCR and beyond.\n\nShlomo is CTO
  at Benchmark Corp\, a DevOps Institute & Continuous Delivery Foundation A
 mbassador. He is focused on supporting the practical side of DevSecOps whi
 ch stems from his engineering and enterprise architecture background. Shlo
 mo was previously global head of Site Reliability Engineering and Applicat
 ion Security as a CISO for a Fortune 500. He is the creator of Governance 
 Engineering which is published in a white paper on DevGovOps. He’s worke
 d with companies in the container space on case studies showing how corpor
 ations can modernize applications using containers and microservices in th
 e cloud\, while supporting PCI compliance using CD pipelines. Shlomo speak
 s at conferences and provides thought-leadership and product management gu
 idance to align with shift-left DevOps culture.\n\nGreg Pepper – “Secu
 rity at the Speed of DevOps – Advanced Security in the DevOps Lifecycle
