From postmortem to strategic action
On This Lesson 4 topics
This lesson is planned. The outline below lists the topics it will cover. The full lesson has not been published yet.
In this lesson
turn an incident into organization-wide improvement.
Planned topics
- Blameless review: find systemic causes, not culprits.
- Look across incidents for patterns (shared dependencies, missing tests, weak rollback).
- Strategic actions address causes across teams, have owners and funding, and are tracked.
- Local fixes alone allow the same failure elsewhere.
