More Episodes

Exploring an idea around the 3rd root cause of failures I've seen in working in a more agile way, incentives. Many times, if the behavior and reasons don't make sense to you, take a look at how the person is being rewarded, or the lack of rewards, and see if you can understand it better. This can also be the secret key to changing how people work, change their incentives. If you have seen examples of this working against you, or altering them to work for you send it in!
