This is a HARD Problem.

“Better”“Better”
What if we could get managers and developers all pulling the same direction?

The Retrospective
“What are we supposed to do?!”
Our biggest problem
“Well, if we don’t understand a problem, we should
collect data.”
![Page 8: Stop Getting Crushed By Business Pressure](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052606/58d1740c1a28abed798b531d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The Retrospective
Our biggest problem
“What data would help us understand the problem?”
“What are we supposed to do?!”

Technical Debt Mistakes
I thought the main obstacle was Technical Debt

?Most of our mistakes were in the
most well-written parts of the code.

We made significantly more mistakes in code that we didn’t write ourselves.

There had to be more to the story...

Most of the pain was caused by human factors.

My team spent tons of time working on improvements that didn’t make much difference.
We had tons of automation, but the automation didn’t catch our bugs.
![Page 19: Stop Getting Crushed By Business Pressure](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052606/58d1740c1a28abed798b531d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
My team spent tons of time working on improvements that didn’t make much difference.
We had well-modularized code,
but it was still extremely time-consuming to troubleshoot defects.
![Page 20: Stop Getting Crushed By Business Pressure](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052606/58d1740c1a28abed798b531d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The hard part isn’t solving the problems it’s identifying the right problems to solve.
“What are the specific problems that are causing the team’s pain?”
![Page 21: Stop Getting Crushed By Business Pressure](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052606/58d1740c1a28abed798b531d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Our “Solution”
“We should just quit our jobs.” “Yeah, it’s hopeless.”
What are we supposed to do?

“A description of the goal is not a strategy.”

What’s wrong with our current strategy?

RESET“A good strategy is a specific and coherent response to—and approach for overcoming—the obstacles to progress.”
-- Richard P. Rumelt
The problem is we don’t have a strategy...

What are the obstacles?
Obstacle 1: Management doesn’t care about interest payments.
Obstacle 2: Management would rather you shut up and do your job.
Obstacle 3: The Problem is outside anyone’s control.

“Let’s rewrite the software!”
My new project: “Awesome in Disguise”
I had full control.

I Tried to Explain “Technical Debt”
![Page 48: Stop Getting Crushed By Business Pressure](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052606/58d1740c1a28abed798b531d/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
“The project is already behind schedule!!”
Manager said:
“How can you possibly justify working on anything other than the deliverables?!”
So we did what we were told.
![Page 49: Stop Getting Crushed By Business Pressure](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052606/58d1740c1a28abed798b531d/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
We drank a lot.
![Page 50: Stop Getting Crushed By Business Pressure](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052606/58d1740c1a28abed798b531d/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)

“That doesn’t sound so bad.”
The Response:

WHAT?!

Loans are a Predictable Financial Tool
Revenue
- Cost
Profit + 10%
Increase Price?
Increase Sales?
Reduce Cost?
What makes investment decisions harder isn’t higher costs, it’s lower predictability.

Obstacle 1: Your manager doesn’t care about interest payments.
But… Managers care A LOT about RISK.
The gradual loss of predictability is much scarier than the gradual increase in cost.
![Page 54: Stop Getting Crushed By Business Pressure](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052606/58d1740c1a28abed798b531d/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)

Obstacle 2: Management would rather you shut up and do your job.

Another new project…
“Don’t ask for permission, ask for forgiveness.”

I put together “a plan”…

“What is Janelle trying to pull?! Who does she think she is?!”
Management said (behind my back):
Get Back Inside Your Box! (or else)
Severe Violation of SOCIAL PROTOCOL
![Page 60: Stop Getting Crushed By Business Pressure](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052606/58d1740c1a28abed798b531d/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
SOCIAL PROTOCOL
Never talk to your manager’s boss about a problem.
Never suggest or imply your manager can’t do their job effectively by
trying to get others to override their decisions.
Decision-making responsibilities are assigned by management and not to be questioned.
![Page 61: Stop Getting Crushed By Business Pressure](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052606/58d1740c1a28abed798b531d/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Engineers: “We’re going to CRASH!”
Manager: “What do I do? We can’t miss these deadlines.”
Then I got into Consulting…

Message comes in management-speak.

1. Don’t ask for Permission
2. State your Goal "I want to make the business case to management for fixing things around here. No more chaos and working on weekends, this needs to stop. But I need data to make the case so I need everyone's help."
3. State the Plan "Here's what I'm thinking. I want to run an experiment to record data for one month on all the time we spend troubleshooting. We can look at the data together and identify our biggest problems, then I’ll write it up and present the case to management to get things fixed.”

We started collecting data during development to track where all of our time was going, and made some pretty frightening discoveries.
See attached. Let me know if you’d like to talk.
