A Frictionless Inner Source Journey
Session Abstract
Inner Source success hinges on easy contributions. However, complex frameworks can be a barrier. We simplified our process by removing bureaucratic hurdles, automating compliance, and simplifying project involvement. Discover how to create a frictionless Inner Source experience and unlock your company’s collaborative potential!
Session Description
For Inner Source to thrive and gain contributors, we need to make the experience as frictionless as possible. Often, we have built large frameworks around Inner Source with the intention of maximizing safety and governance, but these frameworks can inadvertently create unintended obstacles for potential contributors.
Let us share with you how we can address this challenge. We assessed the full process for contributing to Inner Source within our company, including all requirements, necessary actions, and governance regulations. We analyzed and measured where people spend time in the process, and then came up with suggestions for cutting the red tape and also for automating unloved compliance topics.
Finally, for a smooth Inner Source journey, also from an individual project perspective, we need to make it as easy as possible to contribute. We’ll share some examples and suggestions here which can serve as a model for achieving this.
