Talk by ABN AMRO’s Martijn Schram
Martijn Schram is a software specialist at ABN AMRO and will be talking about the Psychology of computer science. Don’t miss his talk at 11:00 in ‘Douchelokaal’. Read more about the subject of his talk:
Psychology and computer science, a match made in heaven or recipe for disaster? In this talk you will learn more about how psychological effects impacts software development. You may think, is there even an impact since it is such an exact discipline? Yes, there definitely is! For there are requirements to gather, expectations to manage, colleagues to work with and of course writing code still remains human work.
Developing software is complex and Agile/Scrum is chock-full of group processes and interactions. There is definitely a lot of psychology going on. I will share what I learned at Spotify and I will point at a harmful side effect of the continuous improvement cycle in scrum and how to avoid it.
And did you ever have to request something technical like a mail server or access through a firewall? More and more you will be faced with a DIY (Do-It-Yourself) process. It sounds great but there is a catch. In the session you will learn the pitfalls of outsourcing a complex process to the consumer.
Finally two psychological constructs: Groupthink and Flow. Groupthink can lead to false consensus. I will explain why it is dangerous and the steps you can take to protect you and your team. Flow, on the other hand, is a great psychological concept that can help you. You will learn how to recognize it and how to use it to your advantage.
This is just a touch of what you can expect from this session. The session is interesting and relevant for everyone. It does not matter which programming language you use and what role you have, as long as you are involved in the software development process. Now, if you want to know whether it is a match made in heaven or recipe for disaster… Come to the session and decide for yourself!
