Susanne Kaiser is a software consultant and author of “Architecture for Flow” which details an approach which meshes together Domain-Driven Design, Wardley Mapping, and Team Topologies.
In this conversation, Gien Verschatse and Susanne Kaiser explore why so many teams build technically impressive systems that still don't deliver real business value.
They dig into:
Why developers jump into solution space before truly understanding the problem
How Wardley Mapping helps you anchor architecture decisions to actual user needs (and why Susanne prefers it over other strategic tools)
The important links between team structure, Conway's Law, and system design
What climatic patterns are and how companies like Nokia and Blockbuster ignored them.
Why AI amplifies existing processes (good and bad) and what that means for your architecture right now.
