> folks that think about and manage change to the product, namely product folks
It's weird to me that the software engineers building the product are not viewed as "product folk".
The people designing the architecture for and building the actual product aren't managing the changes to it or concerned about it? The people who have to address any defects in it aren't concerned about their processes as they pertain to quality?
This sort of worldview seems anti-agile and anti-lean TBH.
- fredsters_s 5y agoNowhere do we say that the entire product organization - devs, designers, PMs - should not care about quality. It's a question of ownership and focus.
- Rapzid 5y agoEngineering needs to own and focus on quality. It's construction that determines quality. It's construction that addresses defects. It's engineering that owns construction. If engineers aren't owning and focused on quality the business either doesn't really believe there are quality issues or there is a huge alignment issue.
