Lets play "Bet your badge" with Thomas Squeo

Recording Date: 2023-11-15 Hosts: Tony Hansmann && Jesse Alford Guest Name: Thomas Squeo Social media: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomassqueo/ Previous interview on Youtube.com: https://youtu.be/iZCPAHwhTWI?si=CfjhBEkyqN69x4eF Guest: Thomas Squeo Title: Let’s Play “Bet your Badge” with Thomas Squeo (01h:30m) One of the greatest things about being in the field for Cloud Foundry was meeting leaders who were deploying not just Cloud Foundry but an array of transformation solutions. Thomas Squeo's roots in XP go back to the early 2000s when he was an early Beck practitioner who worked with both Pivotal Labs and Thoughtworks. What sets Thomas apart is that he has done everything from being a line developer to being the CTO of Entrado, a global 911 provider, among other things. Jesse and Tony talk about what it takes to not just do XP but also what the IRL challenges you will face when transforming an organization. Grab a notebook and buckle up.
