You Can’t Build An MVP
MVP is an acronym for Minimum Viable Product. Ever since the Lean Startup book and movement appeared, it has become the staple of “successfully building the right product”. It’s pretty clear, right?

Interviews on Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast
A few weeks ago, I had a chance to be interviewed by Vasco Duarte for the Scrum Master Toolbox podcast.

How The Israeli Education System Bet On The Wrong Metrics (And What We Can Learn From That Debacle)
How much damage can we do by misusing metrics? Quite a lot. And this time, we’re not talking about a multi-million dollar project, that’s peanuts. How about setting the education system of an entire country on a multi-year track to failure? Last week, the Israeli government finally changed a policy of rating the schools in
