My son is a college baseball player. One of the singular aspects of having kids is that they open your eyes to facets of humanity that you might not have seen otherwise. I was not a college athlete (and knew little of even baseball until he got the bug at age seven), so I have learned much along the way. You — perhaps…

In our daily lives empathy and humility are obvious virtues we aspire to. They keep our egos in check. Less obvious is that they're practical skills in the workplace, too.

The best engineering orgs in the world are not the ones with the most (self-pronounced) "10x engineers", they are the ones where normal engineers can show up every day, do good work, and move the business materially forward. Oh yeah -- this is also the best way to build world-class engineers.

Deciding not to solve a problem, or solving a different one, can also be a viable solution.
Although counter-intuitive, it can be beneficial to build silos and decrease collaboration between teams. Balance the need for collaboration, coordination, and communication with these tips.
This is a transcript of my keynote presentation at the Agile Cambridge conference in England on October 2nd, 2025. The topic was “The Accountability Problem.” How do we define software department accountability so our business partners don’t do it for us?
