- Agile Was Never Your Problem
    - lean process
        - minimal structure, shorten feedback loop, allowing changing direction quickly
        - enough time to write proper tests and refactor without begging
        - monitoring and alerting built into the work, not bolted on later

    - flexible timing
        - roadmaps should not be commitments
        - feedback loops should not be performance metrics
        - planning should not become forecasting
