summary

Builds a single DevOps community across 10 Hearst Business Media units, starting with an opt‑in chat that grows from ~50 to 1,000+ members and seeds self‑forming cross‑functional teams that produce sellable products. Iterates from a prescriptive roadmap and maturity model to value stream mapping workshops and a three‑person Tiger Team (Levi Smith and Alexa Ali) to align goals, address middle‑manager fears/incentives, treat tech debt as business value, and ultimately get the transformation flying.
