As we saw in the previous posts in this series, organizations of autonomous teams can scale. Scaling requires different team characteristics (requisite variety, redundancy of function, double-loop learning and minimum critical specification), a different mental model of organization (brain, not machine), a different kind of hierarchy (purpose, not control), and a different style of leadership (guide, not command).

Most of us love gardening, don’t we? When the tiny seeds transform into mature plantlets or mammoth trees, our happiness knows no bounds! However, the things that generally bother us before planning to sow the seeds are the design of the garden, the exotic range of plant varieties to choose from, amongst many other practical considerations. So, what if I tell you that you can indeed visualize a surreal garden and design or redesign it as you would wish to have it.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial.
