  1. Complex stuff cannot be measured and calculated, but must be judged by people with ideas & mastery - taking the risk of erring into account!

    This is why the old adage "What gets measured gets done" is flawed. The truth is: Most of what gets measured in command-and-control organizations gets cheated upon.
    Be careful about what you measure & how you measure it:

  4. Don't miss next Monday's episode of #BetaCodexLIVE! @rijon and @nielspflaeging will turn to the question if the #Agile, #Lean and Beta movements are one, if they should be one, if they are diverging or converging - and what needs to be done to unite them, if we do not want them all to descend into primitive tribalism!

  5. Alpha, or command-and-control organizations, drive out pride of craftsmanship.

    And that's the death of an organization's soul.

  6. Agile was born with the #AgileManifestoOfSoftwareDevelopment, of course.
    Soon afterwards, #agile became #scrum. From then on, it only got worse. #Agile became a ‘training’ thing.
    But ‘agility’ (just as actual #lean or #quality) is and must be a different theory about how to design and organize work and value creation. It requires re-thinking organization – and put #management thinking on the garbage heap of history.
    #Training or #certification or #agilecoaching won’t help people rethink organizational theory.
    The #Agile movement avoided the theory problem. That’s why it has been so popular and also why it failed, utterly and completely.

  7. “Dr. Deming never allowed the term ‘TQM’ to go unchallenged. At a meeting in Scotland, he saw a TQM poster on the wall. “Is this a TQM meeting?” he said. “I wouldn’t have come if I’d known. There is such a thing as guilt by association”. This startled many people, because the parts of the Deming philosophy that have an obvious and immediate appeal deal with the continual improvement of products and processes. These are often described as TQM. But they are just the things that Dr. Deming dismissed as ‘essential but unimportant’ “.

    From: Kerridge, D. and S. Kerridge (1995) ‘Guilty by Association’, British Deming Association internal publication ‘Variation’, January

  9. This is my newest article on LinkedIn, published on 19 December. Its topic is "organizational conspiracy theories." Trust me: You are likely to have fallen prey to some of them, yourself! And those conspiracy theories make everybody's lives more miserable.

  10. Beth Orton - Trailer Park

    Often (but not always) spooky & haunted debut from Orton, it's kind of hard to know whether it was fair to classify this as trip-hop at the time… the "folktronica" tag seems better suited to what's going on here.

    Hard to believe it's nearly 30 years old...but it still sounds quite fresh to my ears.

    There are much worse ways to spend a rainy afternoon…

  11. Beth Orton - Daybreaker

    Not as immediately accessible as Trailer Park and Central Reservation, but that's not really a knock on the songwriting and performances here. It's just, like the cover, always raining.
