Management needs to change to:
* Define/clarify strategy
* Set guardrails & scope
* Make key decisions
* Remove obstacles
Ie. more leadership, less management
And there we have it - what is in the way of true adoption of outcome focussed delivery? Culture…
Ah yes, here we go…touching on obstacles to implementing this.
#AOTB23 Thursday morning Keynote talk by Jeff Gothelf. Brilliant talk around roadmaps, and the power of outcomes over Big Up Front plans.
But I cannot believe we are *still* talking about this. Be flexible, work on outcomes not outputs, iterate based on feedback, and do not rigidly fix the roadmap. 🤷♂️ There is something else in the way, stopping this change in most companies. We know what we need to do, but people don’t.
Don’t forget, folks. Covid has not simply just “gone away”. Although it now seems to be just a bad cold for me, for others it’s still a serious, life threatening infection.
If you are going to a conference, shove that cotton bud up your nose and test!
