   There are a lot of public events and conferences where you can go to learn about DevOps. I think these are great places to learn, but they aren’t going to be talking about the specifics of your organization.
   
  -Consider hosting internal events where you're free to talk about your challenges, because somebody might've overcome them. I like structures with combination of presentations and interactive sessions that you see in public events like [DevOpsDays](https://devopsdays.org).

   ### **Mentor Teams**
   
   I normally rant against terms like “DevOps Team”. Most of the time this is another new silo or the rebranding of some other existing team.

   A team of mentors who will go out and embed with product teams however is perfectly valid.

  ## **Summary**
  
  In these three posts, we went through some DevOps statistics and industry stories for you get buy-in, misconceptions and strategies to gain acceptance and patterns to drive and spread DevOps adoption. Having working in continuous delivery and DevOps space for several years, I truly understand that it’s really hard. I want to end this series with Robin Sharma’s quote: 
  
  > All change is hard at first, messy in the middle and so gorgeous at the end.
