Shock horror... I'm actually writing an entry in my blog. I can't believe it's over a year since I last wrote here; so much has gone on.

Rather than bore everyone with what I've been doing, I'' list some of the topic areas that I'm currently involved with:

  • Working effectively with aggressive growth of a small technical team to a very large one
  • Transforming legacy code
  • Agile/lean product management
  • Finding the right balance between Strategy (long term) and Tactical (short term) and how that manifests as the choice between (technical and product) investment and debt
  • Creating a Society of small, single-focused, high performance teams without undesirable characteristics such as knowledge silos, and sub-optimal global performance
  • Continued professional development and life long learning journeys appropriate for developers
  • Bridging the communication gap between those who need, those that want, and those that can create
Not much then!
