Progress is easier to manage when you can see it. #MakeWorkVisible

Ship daily. Learn daily. Improve daily. #ReleaseOften

If the problem is fuzzy, the solution will be too. buff.ly/LRHPKgn #KnowTheProblemYouAreSolving

Small, simple wins compound into big results. #SimpleSteps

Smaller releases mean smaller risks. #ReleaseOften

Sprint commitments too often shift focus from solving problems to meeting promises.

Before building solutions, build shared understanding of the problem. buff.ly/LRHPKgn #KnowTheProblemYouAreSolving

Most teams focus on “how much work is left.” But the real insight is in how work moves through the system. That’s where Cumulative Flow Diagrams shine. buff.ly/3XlK7HQ #MakeTheWorkVisible buff.ly/3D8RdZa

If your strategy is just copying others, you’re not leading—you’re following. Differentiation requires courage, creativity, and experimentation. #Leadership #ExperimentationMindset

Shipping every story isn’t the goal. Solving the right problem is. If half the backlog becomes irrelevant, that means you’re learning. #KnowTheProblemYouAreSolving #SoftwareDevelopment

In complex domains, optimizing steps often accelerates waste, not progress.

Understanding the problem is the first step toward crafting effective solutions. buff.ly/V8vg06k #KnowTheProblemYouAreSolving

VP of Delivery @docondev.bsky.social shares reflections on what bug bashes reveal about the underlying system. https://docondev.com/blog/2025/9/25/bug-bashes-are-a-smell

It is easier to write an incorrect program than understand a correct one. ~ Unknown

Don't let your tools become your process.

Stop obsessing over velocity. Focus on flow. Good flow makes velocity both informative and unnecessary. buff.ly/g9ewEUP #EscapeVelocity

Smaller steps are lower risk. buff.ly/AuCy68p #CreateSimpleThingsInSmallSteps

Leadership is giving people the space to decide and the safety to act.

In complex domains, doing tasks faster doesn’t necessarily mean creating more value.

I’ve noticed sprint commitments leading to blame and pressure, not partnership and progress.

Good automation is living documentation. #FavorAutomation buff.ly/gBX0wsh

Every release is a chance to learn. #ReleaseOften buff.ly/2KZTMir

Feedback isn’t one-time—it’s continuous. #ValidateBeforeDuringAfter buff.ly/mNw9ldP

Big bang releases are big gambles. #SimpleSteps buff.ly/5fW6dlH

Good solutions start with clear problems. #KnowTheProblem buff.ly/MWfjBSP

Big bets fail big. Small steps build momentum. #SimpleSteps buff.ly/5fW6dlH

Strong teams solve harder problems faster—together. #WorkTogether buff.ly/0y3ZGUe

Invisible work slows teams down. Visualize flow to unlock progress. #MakeWorkVisible buff.ly/YOK4PSj

Clarity beats speed. Don’t start coding until you know the problem. #KnowTheProblem buff.ly/MWfjBSP

We move faster when we move together. #SoftwareDevelopment #WorkTogether

Test ideas with customers before building. #ValidateBeforeDuringAndAfter buff.ly/mNw9ldP

If you don’t know who you’re building for, you don’t really know what you’re building. Start with the humans, not the code. #KnowTheProblemYouAreSolving #SoftwareDevelopment buff.ly/45r9N6G

A company that stops learning stops growing. Encourage curiosity, invest in development, and adapt— or risk being left behind. #ExperimentationMindset #Excellence

Velocity should measure customer impact, not how busy the team looks. If no value is delivered, velocity is zero. buff.ly/oLeYLL9

The longer you wait to deliver, the more risk you accumulate. Small, frequent releases reduce uncertainty. #SoftwareDevelopment #CreateSimpleThingsInSmallSteps #ReleaseRidiculouslyOften buff.ly/8nJYhye

Transparency isn’t a nice-to-have. It’s the foundation for collaboration, trust, and improvement.

If you think leading means commanding, you’re probably not leading.

A culture of dependency starts when leaders never let go of the steering wheel. Trust the team. Let them navigate.

Growth isn’t about what you’ve done— it’s about what you’re willing to change. See a better way? Make it yours.

If you’ll be held accountable for the outcome, you should have a say in the decision.

Still stuck planning? Build a little. Release a little. Learn a lot. buff.ly/B1hFhbh #CreateSimpleThingsInSmallSteps #ReleaseRidiculouslyOften

Bad targets don’t reveal bad employees. They reveal lazy systems thinking.

Top-down decisions may deliver short-term consistency. But long-term excellence comes from collaborative problem-solving. buff.ly/ioaIC5f #WorkTogether

Releasing isn’t the end of the work. It’s the start of the learning. What’s one thing you could release today to test your assumptions? buff.ly/B1hFhbh #SoftwareDevelopment #ExperimentationMindset

Commanding assumes you know best. Leading assumes we get better together.
