Feed Description: Energized Work's blog.
Communication: Success is directly proportional to communication. All communications should be clear, open and honest because communication is important to creating a team spirit and promoting collaboration.
Simplicity: Aim to find the simplest solutions possible because it's better to implement a simple solution today and enhance it tomorrow if required, than to implement a more complicated solution today which may never be used. Focusing on simple solutions to today's problems minimises the cost of change over time.
Feedback: Insist on feedback early and often because it steers our efforts and enables us to adapt quickly. Iterative and incremental development enables the Consumer Experience Team to provide regular feedback about whether the software satisfies their requirements, and allows them to assess and reprioritise work.
Courage: Have the courage to speak truthfully, to seek concrete answers, to take responsibility and to be accountable. Have the courage to develop software quickly, to make changes to existing software, and to discard failing solutions and seek better ones.
Respect: Respect each person in the team and the contributions they make. Take the goals of the Consumer Experience Team seriously and demonstrate you care as much about delivering the project as they do.
The following diagram demonstrates the relationships that exist between the various values. The diagram is based on some text I read somewhere. When I find the original material I will reference it properly.
