ABSTRACT
Companies that compete on the basis of speed create a huge competitive advantage. But going fast is not easy. Speed requires a precise understanding of value: who, what, when, where, how, and why people will love your product. And it means getting value to them without complexity creeping into either your product or your process.
Complexity comes in three basic flavors:
1. Inconsistency - Anything that is uneven, unbalanced, or irregular.
2. Overload - Any excessive or unreasonable burden.
3. Waste - Anything that unnecessarily takes up time, effort, space, or money.
All three flavors of complexity are rampant in software development...
This is a good talk on Lean software development, simple and practical!
