Presentations

In this post, we’ll continue the series by concentrating on Principle #3: Build Integrity and Quality In.

In the next part of the series, we’ll dive into Principle #4: Defer Commitment and Decide As Late As Possible.

And I am going to be a little obnoxious about listing my Lean and Kanban references with every series post. The references are great and they deserve this sort of attention.
