Introduction In the dynamic world of product development, product management modifications are crucial, particularly when multiple projects alter existing products simultaneously. This post explores effective strategies and techniques, such as branch and merge, to ensure seamless integration and delivery of product updates. The Importance of Product Management Modifications Product management modifications are pivotal in […]
By: Jon M. Quigley Introduction We watch Air Disasters on The Smithsonian Channel. You should watch the program to understand the root cause analysis. It is not just about root cause analysis but also risks and how circumstances and events stack up to produce unwanted results. A recent episode I watched was about Atlantic Southeast […]
Thinking about what can go wrong in the project and how to respond (risk register) is so that we know what to do when the event happens. From experience, the quickness of the response to an emerging event often reduces the risk impact on the project. Ideally, we will have generated a list of the […]
A Song As I wrote this, I kept getting that song by Barenaked Ladies, One Week, going through my head. I have been working on the bassline for that song. My kid introduced the song to me some years back and just recently I thought about learning it. I’m very close. Estimating I have a […]
The Product Development Hike. You won’t read far in product development, where product road map analogy (or actuality) is brought up. Recently, I saw a tweet (is it still called tweet, or is it an X) from @CGLambdin. I wish I had captured the tweet for posting here, but I recall it was about the […]
I usually have little problem writing. I write multiple columns at technical and business magazines per month; I have a book or books in the queue at any given time. This has taken much longer than I had hoped, but for days, my mind raced. I ran through many Jimmy Buffett experiences and have never […]
Once Upon a Time I worked while I was acquiring my undergraduate engineering degree, hell, I worked while getting all three of my degrees. My undergraduate was especially interesting, in that I did not have a mass of skills so my work was not a high-paying gig. I am grateful for the job, but there […]
Sergeant York – and Old Homesteads Gatlinburg Area Recently, over the Memorial Holiday, Sergeant York, well, more like rewatched it. I recall it from when I was a kid on the old movies channel. Not when it first hit the big (or little) screen mind you. However, I have since then had some experiences that […]
It was a wonderful learning event at the Manufacturing X.0 Southeast event. I want to thank Lacy Ashton and Boni Quatroche for making the even and my involvement possible. There was much to learn from the confluence of topics from AI to Big Data, from the individual to team learning and retrieval. All of these […]
