Many companies waste time and resources on infrastructure and internal tools that don’t set them apart. In this episode, Geert and Rene explore core versus context through the lens of engineering culture. They break down why core work—the things that drive competitive advantage—should be the focus, while context, though necessary, should be streamlined or outsourced where possible. Using the pillars of engineering culture, they examine how organizations can align their teams, platforms, and investments to maximize impact. The takeaway: invest in what makes you unique and stop reinventing the wheel.
About LEAD Podcast
We think software & it plays an important role in every company. Software is eating the world and companies need to adopt to this to survive.
In this podcast we want to share stories of successful people/companies, industry leaders & influencers for others to learn from.
Being a great software company means more than just having a great software architecture & cloud infrastructure (although this is part of it). In this podcast we want to focus on all things related building a successful software company, from people, process, technology & tools to culture
The world is still running on excel sheets and we’re scared of that. Let’s help every company improve in the way they run their digital business by sharing knowledge of how others did this. Every week a new guest, with expertise on a certain area of engineering cultures, will join hosts Geert &Rene to talk about this and to share their stories, journeys, learnings & pitfalls.
The lead podcast is part of the lead community, an international community of leaders in Engineering, Architecture & Development.
