  • Failure Funerals

    A friend of mine commented on the 4 Powerful Team Building Exercises article by David Burkus. The author suggested that we have “Failure Funerals.” I replied with the following on LinkedIn near 11/15/2022. I agree with your real world words for a “failure funeral.” As for the blame that is mentioned in the article, I…

  • Commonplace Book Online

    I have been researching Mastodon and came across the website of Chris Aldrich. His concept of his website as a commonplace book and hub of all of his publishing resonates.

  • SAFe

    I am starting to think about the professional development and certifications I might want to complete in 2023. I had considered “The Scaled Agile Framework® (SAFe®) is the leading system for scaling agile, trusted by thousands of enterprises.” But every time I read about it or look at the diagram for it I wonder how…

  • Baltimore Museum of Industry, Baltimore, MD, 2022-11-04
