How do I solve problems (effectively)? (positive y-axis)
KNOW YOUR PROBLEMS (duh.) - Product Owner (Business) - Prioritize
- Don’t force your solutions (Engineering)
LIMIT YOURSELF (on purpose. within reason.) - Architectural Examples -
Framework & Environment Choices - Minimize Everything: - don’t Underestimate DevOps work
PROTECT YOURSELF - SIMPLIFY - DRY - ANALYZE - AUTOMATE
- DELETE CODE
What is love (two types)? (positive x-axis)
KNOW YOUR TEAM - What motivates? - What are their
values? - Where are they headed?
TEAMBUILDING - Remote CAN’T EVEN - You are in this
together - SO much time together
HAVE SOME HUMILITY (but give credit constantly)
1. Know your problems 2. Limit yourself 3. Protect yourself
4. Know your team 5. Teambuilding 6. Have Some Humility 7. Profit
