Facebook Agile: From Green to Greener, plus other lies and bull$#!t
45 Mins
Talk
Executive
All companies tell lies. All executives endorse lies. And all employees live lies.
We must pretend we are amazing, and brag to our peers about how much farther ahead we are, than they are. We change the narrative to suit our lies. We have reports to prove our lies.
This happens at EVERY company.
When you look at Facebook feeds – all you see is pictures of vacations. Smiling kids. BBQs. Clean pools. You never see the miserable couple, the dirty laundry, or the crying kids.
Enter Facebook Agile.
We are conditioned to hide the bad $#!t that is going on around us. There’s no reason anyone has to know what’s really going on (even though most people know what’s going on).
Our leaders are afraid of what other peers might think. Or worse, what other “senior management” might perceive or judge. So they choose not to be leaders, despite the obvious need for leadership.
This session will provide an experience report on what leaders can do to embrace transparency, trust, and courage. Building a culture of continuous improvement starts with embracing the things that aren't working, instead of hiding them to avoid overhead.
