Just a gentle “Go on John, you know you can write that piece of code/solve that problem/validate that assumption why don’t you put your name to this one?” - just you know, being supportive.

Akin to technical debt, human debt keeps accumulating when topics to do with the employees have been neglected or frankly, half-arsed for long enough. This is what is holding banks back.
On the value of real 1-on-1's - the interactions that make a great #leader. #Psychological Safety #HR #EmployeeEngagement #Leadership #PeopleNotTech #EQ #HumansAtWork #WaysOfWork #VUCA
The knowledge that #Agile is THE way is worth the effort to keep both ourselves and others anchored in the breath of the principles and incessantly ask ourselves: “Am I #Agile “yet?” or “Am I #Agile “still”?” #DevOps #Transformation #FutureOfWork #NoWOWwithoutWOT #PeopleNotTech #HumansAtWork #Technology #Flexibility #Meditation #WaysOfWork
"What if we've left the idea of probing in-depth into the well-being of our people so far behind, that none of the big things work? What if we have human debt, not tech-debt? Relationships to clean and fix, not code? Team dynamics and health to test, not features?" #Agile #DevOps #Team #HR #PeopleNotTech #Scrum #Technology #softwaredevelopment
Tales from the log of the #ProductOwner about being truly #agile, #design, big thinking, #servantleadership, #continouslearning and of course, #PsychologicalSafety #PeopleNotTech #leadership #HR #VUCA #Technology #DevOps
What to do about half-baked Agile unsupported by a shift in the way of thinking? #Transformation without #change. Agile by numbers. Agile as seen on BigConsultancyTV with no change of #mindset. Agile as a #process. The Agile party in the #IT department and #Waterfall #BAU in the #business. Us and them. #WowNotWoT. - Fall in love with #Change - get #DevOps in the mind not the #tech.
How To Not Fail At #Agile 94% Of The Time. Why we should stop saying and thinking "transformation"- and how #DevOps is a much better term for the new #WaysOfWork and more importantly the new #WaysOfThinking in #knowledge #organizations who need to do #Agile if they are to use #technology fast and smart enough to delight their #customers.
Curiosity is fundamental for an #Agile, #growth-and-#people-obsessed mindset and the latter is the only way forward in the #knowledge economy. To become part of the #Digital elite, both #leadership and #developers (as well as anyone else at all, really!) need to want to create a new #Cultural paradigm and mould the #FutureOfWork through #DevOps in #Technology around happy #teams and #PsychologicalSafety in our fast-moving #VUCA world. This book will help! #PeopleNotTech #ProjectPhoenix #ProjectUnicorn #HumansFirst #HR #IT
Being truly strong, open and flexible, having Emotional Intelligence while still applying all of the hard skills and obsessively ever learning - that's what's needed of anyone who works in Agile ways.
Many argue that there is a substantial difference between "DevOps" and "Agile". I think it's semantics and here's why.
