Building in the Enterprise

A critical incident hits. Systems go down. Deadlines slip. Fingers point. Sound familiar? In this episode, Duncan and Jason break down how high-performing engineering teams recover differently. Instead of assigning blame, they focus on learning, adapting, and improving. Through stories and insights, they explore how leadership sets the tone for accountability, why feedback loops are essential for growth, and how creating psychological safety helps engineers move faster without fear. If you’ve ever been in the middle of a postmortem wondering how to make your team stronger, this conversation will change the way you think about engineering culture.
