Agile is not an Excuse for Ignoring Risk #54

Open GuyHoozdis opened 7 years ago

GuyHoozdis commented 7 years ago

highly recommended

it's about a lot of the mechanics of product engineering, and where we lost the thread of the agile discussion

my favorite quote (trying to remember) was about an exercise he does in training where the team has to plan a project where they drive a bus to Cancun

What happens if you get to the border and somebody is missing their passport? Wait, we need passports? Yes! You're not an agile bus... you're just an ignorant bus!

basically agile isn't an excuse for ignoring risk
