“The outcomes an organization can realize are limited by the values they hold” - “An organizational potential will always be limited by its leadership maturity” - @smcgeeci at #KLR19

“The best companies aren’t families. They are supporters of families. They’re there to provide healthy, fulfilling work environments so that when workers shut their laptops at a reasonable hour, they’re the best partners, parents they can be” - It doesn’t have to be crazy at work

[Amanda Varella @amandavarella]

Principle of “self-organising criticality” - a lot of little corrections create stability but one huge correction creates catastrophe - A great reference quoted in the #radicalcandor book.

[Amanda Varella @amandavarella]

The Big Bang and the Cambrian Explosion happened once in the Universe, both are attributed to God. Some people claim they can easily do it - funny quote by @rodrigoy #nobigbang

[Amanda Varella @amandavarella]

You cannot assess a demand’s duration analysing the demand. You can only assess duration looking at the whole system (execution time + queue time) - @alissonvale #noestimates

[Amanda Varella @amandavarella]

The manager's function is not to make people work, but to make it possible for people to work. - Tom de Marco - quoted by @alissonvale

“Agility is not the result of adding up agile teams, but the result of agile interactions between those involved.” Another great quote from @klausleopold in #practicalkanban

[Amanda Varella @amandavarella]

The only agile team that is needed at the start of becoming an agile organization is an agile top management team. Everything follows from here - lead by example. From @klausleopold #practicalkanban

[Amanda Varella @amandavarella]

A steady flow of work can only be sustained where customers pull value rather than pushing orders #UpstreamKanban https://t.co/eDY3Ajq8ae
