Kodsnack 676 - Maps will get you fired, with Simon Wardley

Recorded on-stage at Øredev 2025, Fredrik talks to Simon Wardley about maps (not the same as charts!), stories, commodotization, digital sovereignty, getting labeled a heretic by all sides, and a lot more. Among other things, Simon discusses how you can map things out and thereby find new ways to present and challenge the current state within and organization. Not that it will necessarily be very popular, hence the bit about being called a heretic.
