If you estimate,
dates are written in stone.
If you commit,
the build is broken.
If you innovate,
the plan is not being followed.
If you pair,
a resource is being wasted.
If you speak up,
the alignment is at risk.
If you refactor,
new functionality is delayed.
Don’t be afraid! These days are gone. You shall estimate, refactor, pair, innovate, speak up and commit often.
The old management style is fading away. Servant leaders and courageous executives understand you better. Just be yourself and help others understand the new software development era.
