That’s it.
Empiricism means:
You’ve seen something happen or you’ve done something, and
You’ve learned from it.

Reminder: you're allowed to NOT use jargon.

AI wrote the code. Now the team writes bug reports.

Strategies might look brilliant on paper, yet often miss the mark within organisations. 📉 The core challenge lies in how we communicate them. This insightful piece unveils an analogy between Geoffrey Moore's "Crossing the Chasm" and effective strategy dissemination. Understanding your audience and tailoring communication is vital for success.

A long-term client contract is ending in September, so I'll have some time in the last three months of the year. I want to spend a lot of it slowing down, learning, experimenting, ... and I'll write about it here.

I also have some capacity for training and technical coaching (Test-Driven Development, Agile Engineering, Domain Driven Design). Contact me to discuss more details if you are interested: DM here or business@davidtanzer.net

I think I have to make a statement.

I liked working with #NovellNetware - versions 3 and 4.
I’m a big fan of #LotusNotes. It was hard getting used to not having it in my toolbox.
I believe that #agile values and principles are a good foundation for organizing team work and some most frameworks are a good starting point for using them.
I like #Atlassian #Jira and #Confluence.
I love working in a well designed #OpenOfficeSpace|s

Any takers?

Agile в эпоху удалёнки: что делать, если митинги больше не работают?

Пандемия заставила нас работать из дома, но перенесла в Zoom все офисные проблемы. Бесконечные стендапы, тотальный контроль и выгорание от видеозвонков — классический Agile даёт сбой. Но его можно спасти асинхронными практиками. Читайте в статье: ✔️ Почему 80% митингов можно заменить письменной коммуникацией? ✔️ Как GitLab добиться результатов без ежедневных созвонов? ✔️ Чек-лист перехода на async-работу без потери эффективности.
