#162: Recommendations in a downturn
Manage episode 353487276 series 3194006
As we start the new year, its not uncommon for organisations to looks at budgets and general expenditure - and given the current financial outlook, I would have expected many organisations to be taking the time to look at how best to weather the storm.
I've found that many organisations typically react with a combination of cost cutting and putting pressure on staff for "more" in such periods.
However like many "traditional" sound managerial practices, this cause dysfunctional and negative outcomes in the Age of Software & Digital - and specifically when it comes to any form of knowledge work like Software Development.
The problem we have is that these "traditional" managerial practices have become muscle memory - so ingrained with the managerial psyche that it can be a difficult thing to re-think.
In this episode, I want to ask you to re-think about 3 things in particular:
- Training and learning
- Doing less work
- Take advantage
