I love helping people discover new ways of working, how to be awesome, and the empowering delight that comes with psychological safety.

Designers often seem to imagine that code is not disposable. They push paper prototyping because of that belief. IMO, all artifacts—paper or code—are disposable. The notion that code is so expensive that you can’t throw it out is just wrong. Work small. Get immediate feedback.

Doing an #agile course with the incomparable Ceedee today, and the innovative approach taken is both refreshing and- dare I say it - fun!

A general rule of thumb: If you start less, you finish more. If you start more, you finish less.

Strange, tough, unsettling times. I do so wish you all well. ❤ We can do this. Together. And here, by way of stirring inspiration, is a text exchange with my 16 year old son, who was so determined that his school would be closed he wanted to directly lobby the Minister! 😂😂😂

Scaling #agile? How about starting with (and learning from) 1-2 small successes (happy customers, quality product, outcomes delivered sooner, happy staff) before hurrying to spread #agile across your entire org? Anyone doing that?

Less process, waste, bureaucracy, slow handoffs, silos, bloat. Less is more. Agilists are Minimalists.

Most people need consistency more than they need intensity. Intensity: -run a marathon -write a book in 30 days -silent meditation retreat Consistency: -don't miss a workout for 2 years -write every week -daily silence Intensity makes a good story. Consistency makes progress.

A #NoEstimates thought experiment: Imagine for a minute that estimates are impossible. What would you do instead? Now you have an alternative. What are the consequences of using it instead of estimates? In which contexts would it be advantageous?
