Winston Wolf could teach us almost everything about rapid software delivery under 3 minutes -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgzFPOMjiC8

Prioritization -

  • Things hidden from users — “…now when it comes to upholstery, it don’t need to be spic and span, you don’t need to eat off it. Give it a good once over…”
  • UI — “But the windows are a different story. Them you really clean. Get the Windex, do a good job. “

Deliver the bad news first — “About the car, is there anything I need to know? “

Continuous Delivery — “I think fast, I talk fast…and I need you guys to act fast if you want to get out of it”

Directness — “Get it straight Buster, I am not here to say please. I am here to tell you what to do”
