OnCallogy Sessions
Blog post from Honeycomb
OnCallogy Sessions are a strategic initiative designed to improve the experience of being on-call by fostering a collaborative and supportive environment for discussing on-call practices and challenges. Held weekly on Mondays, these optional sessions provide a platform for participants to share information, address uncertainties, and propose improvements in on-call procedures. The sessions vary in format, including operational presentations, hands-on sessions, planning discussions, and free discussions, encouraging participation regardless of whether attendees are currently on-call. Through these sessions, the organization aims to cultivate a culture of continuous learning and enhancement of on-call operations, ensuring psychological safety and open communication. The initiative emphasizes the importance of structured time dedicated to refining the on-call experience, making it a habit to discuss and address issues collectively, and ultimately striving to make the on-call process less stressful and more efficient.
