#HumanSideofLean

Context is critical, and it is everyone’s responsibility to insist

on it.

We need to own our Baggage.

We should understand

and privilege actual productivity over the output of busy work.

We recognize and address bummer

personality issues.

We need to have shared Goals.

We recognize the value of teams.

We will release and test things that are not

perfect, and in some cases, craptacular.

We approach our work with Curiosity

and Ambition.

We approach our customers, and one another, with Empathy.

In order to generate value, we need to own our team culture.
