Good architecture. Perfect execution. On time. In budget. The river moved. All that up-front planning didn't do much good, did it?

Arrogance is thinking something is perfect after the first draft. Humility is knowing there is always room for improvement.

We use "horsepower" as a measurement because of an 18th century entrepreneurial marketing trick. James Watt invented it as a way to sell steam engines. It gave him a clear value proposition for the unfamiliar technology: “it does as much work as 30 horses, think of the savings!”

Consider bureaucracy for what it really is: a way to impose a structure on the world so that we can link general principles to actions. #ArtOfBureaucracy amazon.com/gp/product/B08GJQ…

Leaders are the ones who have the courage to go first, to put themselves at personal risk to open a path for others to follow.

My next book is on its way! (Yes, that's why I've been quiet lately - trying to get it finished). Look out for "The (Delicate) Art of Bureaucracy: Digital Transformation with the Monkey, the Razor, and the Sumo Wrestler" coming this fall!

DevOps is neither a role nor a mindset. It's a philosophy that dev and ops are so closely integrated that they're really the same thing. You release as you work. 1/5

There are just dev teams that have been assigned the task of building a CI/CD pipeline and whose cross-functional nature includes all the skills needed to do that. Their customers are the other teams. Their valuable outcomes are the other teams working more effectively. 4/5

Busyness != productivity. Being busy all the time (working at 100% capacity) slows you down because there's no wiggle room for things like inaccurate estimates or unexpected work. 1/2

Replying to @tconrad
When I in my 20s I knew it all. In my 30s I shouted how I knew it all. In my 40a I learned how little I knew. As I approach 50 lifelong learning is the goal.

Not being able to say no means that you aren't working in an Agile way. Agile orgs, by definition, have self organizing teams. That means they're in charge of the way they work. 1/2
