I just take issue with the nomenclature. It fits in to a general narrative that I dislike in our industry. Of course there is a long tail in terms of productivity, that's just how life is. But turning that into a buzzword does a great disservice.
You don't see companies in other industries pretending that their product is a special snowflake and demanding rockstar 10x whatevers. No, they manage to be more mature about the whole process.
- mauricemir 11y agoIB, Management Consultancy and Law certainly have that aspect - even if you are realy paying $2000 a day for a wet behind the ears MBA with no experience. If your a rich person with legal trouble you want a rockstar lawyer like Cherie Blair as your Barrister. Just Like the NI journalists who got off from bribing cops - they had the most expensive lawyers money can buy

- jghn 11y agoI didn't say it didn't exist. I was saying that the verbiage is different. IOw I have no problem with accepting that not all people are created equal, I just find the way that notion is handled in our industry to be childish
- mauricemir 11y agoHow is it handled differently in tech vs say big FTSE 100 companies.
