Can you elaborate?
- DeathArrow 4y agoI just confront business people with the results of their choices in a civil and polite manner. If some manager made a promise to a client out of his/her ass without asking us, and if the PO pressures us towards meeting an unrealistic time-frame, when that explodes I just explain in a public meeting where upper management and all stake holders take part why it was wrong to promise that, using arguments and business considerents because bussineses people don't care about tech considerents. It usually results in that person admitting in public their mistake and even saying they are sorry. I don't do that to humiliate people but to teach them to ask the team implementing the feature to estimate or to say if that feature is even reasonable or possible given current state and resources.
