We must adhere to the correct principles to correctly perform the practices.
Quality software comes from quality people. Therefore, Poor quality software must come from poor quality people. To build quality in, we remove the things that reduce quality.
Too many releases are hard to report and manage. To reduce the number of updates to the Release Tracking spreadsheet, we should focus on a small number of releases each quarter. This provides us with more time to Amplify Feedback .
Coaching employees is an important daily practice to ensure they know we are tracking their work and care about their output.
Each Code Engineer is responsible for their own work and should be rewarded for the work they do. If a feature is successfully delivered, we should identify the Code Engineer who made the most changes and give them a bonus. It would be unfair to reward the whole team based on the excellence of an individual.
When we need to help resources with the opportunity to find positions with other organizations, we use the PeopleWare HRaaS system. This uses individual performance data and machine learning models to automate the process of giving them that opportunity. This allows us to avoid the stress of challenging conversations.
