NielsenIQ agile coaches discuss managing 25-person teams in a market research context. They explore 'splitting without splitting' by using fluid backlogs, visualization of communication patterns, and context-specific frameworks to balance deep work with cross-functional cohesion.
An analysis of Peter Naur's 1985 paper arguing that programming is theory building rather than code generation. This executive brief explores the limitations of LLMs in maintaining software theory, the inadequacy of documentation for knowledge transfer, and strategic implications for team stability and legacy system management.
A case study on migrating a Danish vacation rental platform from AWS to Hetzner Cloud. The analysis covers an 80% infrastructure cost reduction, the strategic shift from hyperscalers to simple cloud providers, and the operational trade-offs of self-managed databases and infrastructure as code.
An executive analysis of the social-technical nature of software development. This brief explores how Conway's Law dictates system design, the limitations of the Inverse Conway Maneuver, and actionable strategies for architects to influence team topology without formal authority.
A strategic analysis of how social dynamics and trust deficits drive software architecture failures. This brief outlines a dual-perspective review methodology that prioritizes organizational health over technical code analysis to unlock stalled digital transformations.
A strategic framework for implementing agile documentation in software development. Learn how to align documentation with user needs, integrate it into the Definition of Done, and leverage C4 models to reduce technical debt.
