If you are on an Agile journey, please realize, Agile and design, properly understood, are not separate things. Increasing the velocity of value means increasing the velocity of informed design decisions. #agile #design medium.com/columbus-egg/w…

IBM condemns today's unprecedented lawlessness and we call for it to end immediately. These actions have no place in our society, and they must stop so our system of democracy can work.

Nothing tastes as good as Sharpie smells.

many tracking tools R designed to help #mgrs, & add little value to teams. Explain benefits rather than mandate use.

Specialization is great. Everyone should have at least 3 specialties.

Rather than decompose work into functions & tasks, create clarity around outcomes, enable the flow of work, balance freedom & responsibly

Autonomy, self-direction, self-management, self-organization are great goals. But you can’t force people into that either. Therefore, the primarily role of an Agile leader in an Agile organization is to empathize with what people need in the current context and help them grow.

A business is only as agile as its longest feedback cycle.
