# (Re)vitalizing your engineering culture


- **Date:** Friday, Jul 19, 2024
- **Time:** 10:20–10:50 (30 min)
- **Room:** Airstream (120)
- **Event:** World Congress 2024

## Description

Culture happens - in one way or the other. The same is true for our engineering culture. How can we build a great and sustainable engineering culture as the foundation for a software company? And maybe even more importantly, how can we revitalize and change an existing engineering culture which is not supporting our objectives?

In this talk, I will share ideas and lessons learned by changing and fostering an engineering culture at an existing company. Whether by promoting communities, creating opportunities for visibility or changing the hiring process. The best thing is that everything I share is something you can apply to a vital engineering culture, too. Revitalize your culture now; do not wait till it needs attention.
