Agile Teams Beware: 8 moves that seem FAST but actually make you SLOW
Agile Teams Beware: 8 moves that seem FAST but actually make you SLOW: 👇
- Hire more devs: effectiveness is measured in onboarding hours.
- Multitasking: the art of doing twice the work at half the speed.
- Assigned tasks: for when you want devs to feel like robots.
- No code review: bugs welcome, party in the codebase!
- Automated testing: who needs it? We love surprises!
- Single expert: the one bottleneck to rule them all.
- Technical debt: our gift to the devs of the future.
- Individual metrics: teamwork? Never heard of it.
🤟 Bonus: 8 more moves that seem fast but actually make you slow: 👇
- Just do it: shortcuts today, detours tomorrow.
- Vague requirements: Enter spiral of confusion.
- Feature bloat: because nobody said 'less is more.
- Latest tech: we put the 'struggle' in 'learning curve.
- No documentation: because reading minds is magical.
- Ignore team morale: let the disengagement games begin!
- Oral communication: let's play a game of broken telephone.
- Over-optimizing: if rigidity is wrong, we don't want to be right.
