Speaker Notes:
"Now you might be wondering, why should you care about this? Let me give you three compelling reasons.

First, teams using this approach report 40% fewer bugs in production. That's almost half the bugs you're dealing with right now.

Second, developers save an average of 10 hours per week. That's time you can spend building features instead of fixing issues.

And third, this dramatically improves team collaboration because everyone's on the same page about code quality.

Let me share a quick story about how one team implemented this..."
