But What About the BAU Work?

Dan North:

tl;dr

  • Model and visualise your value chain.
  • Structure the people around the value chain.
  • Make all the demand visible, so there is no hidden work. This is key.
  • Identify work that will reduce drag and give you more discretionary capacity.
  • Decide what you want to invest in, and structure the people around that.
  • Repeat every quarter, which is long enough to get work done, and short enough to iterate.
