Unless you make software for prisons or factory farms, you have customers who are fascinating. So have your engineers talk to those customers to boost their motivation and engagement. Have them write feature designs, marketing material, FAQs, customer briefs....

This is *great* news that because I ride a bike I no longer have to pay tax. I missed the announcement – it's a very bold public health initiative.

THREAD: Energy Bill Support Grant. I have just been notified that I will get £67 a month off my energy bills under the govt scheme. For enormous numbers of people this support will be absolutely vital. But it won't be vital for everyone, and that includes me. (PLS RT) 1/

Implementing design thinking, agile or any other new practice in a bureaucratic org will always end in disappointment—like putting a tutu on a dog and hoping it will become a ballerina. Our orgs need new DNA—a radical rethink of purpose, power and process from first principles.
