The Manager Sanity Check

So, you're planning the future. There are is a lot of stuff you are eager to do. But stop and think - are you pushing forward in the right direction?

Make sure there's a balance between:

• Product - what would makes up evolving in the eyes of our customers?
  We are not pushing features for ourselves right?
  
  
• People - what would make this a better place to work in?
  Are we leveraging the skills at our disposal?
  
  
• Process - are we limiting WIP, improving quality, surfacing problems early?
  Done right we should gain time to experiment and fulfilling creative ideas.
  
  
• Purpose - are we contributing to the society around us?
