A plan isn’t a set of instructions, a to-do list or a calendar. It’s a snapshot of the immediate actions a team needs to take to exploit or counteract current conditions in the marketplace. If your plan never changes, you are assuming the world around you isn’t either.


Learn about multi-tasking.


There’s a big difference between central planning and central communication.


Who doesn’t love the wormhole explanation from the movie Interstellar? There’s a conference talk hiding somewhere in there. youtu.be/f3ptQ0CPMmU

Stakeholders: be careful of how you leverage your opinions while meeting with your teams. Don’t be a “HiPPo with a hunch” that leads the team toward confusion.


Make me feel like I’m part of something (we). Make me feel like I stand out (me). @mwbuckingham


Rules remove choices. Choices are where learning happens. Make rules, remove learning. @mwbuckingham


When you have to think, “How do I get on board with this?” or “What’s my part in this?” it is a signal that you are being given a quota—you haven’t been brought along in the journey of establishing a goal.


Leaders speak in “possibility.” Teams speak in “likelihood.” Both need to learn the language of the other.


Nothing kills a team like task overload.


A low maturity team has contributors who are focused on personal productivity. The contributors to a high maturity have a greater focus on group productivity (a.k.a. flow).

Imposed artificial deadlines are about power and manipulation, not getting work done. If an iteration/Sprint defines a deadline, you're working in a sweatshop, not an Agile org. Any company that's doing that is in deep trouble, trouble that actual Agile could help fix. 1/4

Usually when people blame Command and Control in fact the problem is a push system and an abusive environment. Not the same stuff.


Be cautious not to loose clarity in the pursuit of accuracy.

I've been using this trilemma based prioritization discussion process with good impact. It's quickly clear that just prioritizing using "value" gives an ineffective order. Perishable things jump the queue anyway; valuable things get immediately blocked because they aren't doable
