The Two-And-Done rule is fantastic and I would take it one step further.
I am correct, A LOT, when it comes to technical decisions, strategies and the Right Thing To Do™ but that does not mean that my decision is Right For The Business™.
I do not have the full view into what my others see.
- I do not see the CEO getting pressure from investors, board members or customers.
- I do not see the Head of Development dealing with not having enough people to get work done, budget issues or other critical issues that I am not involved in.
- I do not see the Development Manager dealing with people that are having struggles and thus not getting enough work done.
Keep that in mind when someone says no to your perfect idea. Odds are you do not see the entire picture.
