• Define roles and responsibilities: Clearly define the roles and responsibilities of each team member, as well as how they will work together to achieve common goals.

• Emphasize continuous improvement: DevOps is a continuous process of improvement. Encourage experimentation, learning, and feedback to improve the processes and tools used by the teams.
• Implement DevOps practices: Implement DevOps practices such as continuous integration, continuous delivery, and infrastructure as code.
• Measure success: Establish metrics to measure the success of the DevOps transformation, such as cycle time, lead time, and mean time to recovery (MTTR).
• Provide training: Provide training for both IT Operations and Development teams to ensure they have the necessary skills to work in a DevOps environment.
• Build a culture of trust: Build a culture of trust between the IT Operations and Development teams to ensure they can work together effectively.

1. Start small: Start with a small project or application to pilot the DevOps transformation. Use the lessons learned from this project to scale the transformation across the organization.
