I suspect that one of the reasons for most of us having “parts” to our personality is that at key parts of our lives something significant happened that got “locked” in our brain via memory. When we encounter those things again, our brain transports us back to the time of that “locking” / encoding, evoking who and what we “were” at that time.

I’ve heard it said that scrum is about removing excuses for finger-pointing from a team. That might feel hugely uncomfortable to the team, but removing excuses is probably an impotant “how” for getting to high performance.

If you have never seen a hammer or a screwdriver, what sense will you make out of a nail or a screw? #agiletransformation #sharedSensemaking #ideasAreToolsToThinkWith

Let’s suppose for a moment that “design” is the way something is made. That includes physicality (size, color, shape, etc.) and other attributes (functionality, limitations, purpose, cost, joy of use, aesthetics, etc.) If that can be said to be true, then isn’t it also true that the maker is part of the design? And if the maker is a team, the team becomes part of the design. Isn’t that worth paying attention to if we desire good design?

What about this? The Definition of Ready is the “input API” to a scrum team. The Definition of Done is the “output API”. The scrum team is a “God object”.
