All tools are useless if they get pointed in the wrong direction. OKRs. Lean. Agile. Cynefin. Design thinking. Doesn’t matter. All vulnerable to human judgment. The thing to improve and fix is human judgment, and those tactics ladder up to that, not the other way around.

Lean thinking requires humility: the acceptance that no one has all the answers & that embracing problems leads to understanding. #Lean
