“To communicate effectively, the code must be based on the same language used to write the requirements—the same language that the developers speak with each other and with domain experts.”

“by focusing on goals (“solutionizing”) it’s easy to ignore alternatives. By focusing on “Risk-First”, we don’t ignore the reasons we’re doing something.”

“Sometimes, the path across the Risk Landscape will take you to dead ends, and the only benefit to be gained is experience. No one deliberately chooses a dead end - often you can take an action that doesn’t pay off, but frequently the dead end appears from nowhere: it’s a Hidden Risk. The source of a lot of this hidden risk is the complexity of the risk landscape.”
― Rob Moffat, Risk-First Software Development: The Menagerie

“Developing software that delivers true business value is not the same thing as developing ordinary business software. Software that delivers true business value aligns with the business strategic initiatives and bears solutions with clearly identifiable competitive advantage—software that is not about technology, but about the business.”
