> Just look back 3 month and assess how many of the things that happened were predictable (keeping in mind the fact that hindsight is 20/20). The company I work for hasn’t changed a single procedure or milestone. Neither have my clients. I am also not talking about predicting the world, but of predicting an internal kitchen. This is just n = 1 but I’ve never seen a company that does it’s strategic planning in detached 2 week sprints. If anything, if any sort of coherence exists I’d say that the previous sprint, the current sprint and the next sprint should have an understandable connection, and then we are already talking about a month and a half. > I wager every company in the world was affected by the world wide changes right now. Affected? Perhaps. Derailed? Not so much. > Those who cling to plans are at disadvantage against those who have the ability to quickly adapt to the change. Both have their advantages and disadvantages, but I’d trust and would like to work, more, for a company that doesn’t flap in the wind. No one in the industry expects stability like in the waterfall days, but to expect a company to change / adapt their strategy in less than a financial quarter is just marketingspeak in my opinion.
