Jez Humble
“When faced with a new opportunity or a problem to be solved, our human instinct is to jump straight to a solution without adequately exploring the problem space, testing the assumptions inherent in the proposed solution, or challenging ourselves to validate the solution with real users.”
Jez Humble, Lean Enterprise: How High Performance Organizations Innovate at Scale (Lean

Peter F. Drucker
“Meetings are by definition a concession to deficient organization For one either meets or one works. One cannot do both at the same time.”
Peter F. Drucker, The Effective Executive

“Where is the integrity in telling the team they “must have all this done by this date” when you haven’t asked the team if it is even possible?”
Pollyanna Pixton, Agile Culture, The: Leading through Trust and Ownership

“The programmer, like the poet, works only slightly removed from pure thought-stuff. He builds his castles in the air, from air, creating by exertion of the imagination. Few media of creation are so flexible, so easy to polish and rework, so readily capable of realizing grand conceptual structures.”
Frederick P. Brooks

Peter F. Drucker
“It is hard to realize today that “government” during the American Civil War a hundred years ago meant the merest handful of people. Lincoln’s Secretary of War had fewer than fifty civilian subordinates, most of them not “executives” and policy-makers but telegraph clerks. The entire Washington establishment of the U.S. government in Theodore Roosevelt’s time, around 1900, could be comfortably housed in any one of the government buildings along the Mall today.”
Peter F. Drucker, The Effective Executive
