SPaMCAST 363- Best 2013 Mix Tape

I am on vacation for a two weeks and could not leave you without some Monday morning mind candy, therefore, we are doing two very special shows this week and next.  This week I have included the responses to the “if you could fix any two (or sometimes just one) things” question I ask at the end every interview from the three most downloaded interviews of 2013.  The top three and one extra were:: featured Mike Burrows. Mike focused his wishes on: Changes agents need to take their role as change agents seriously. Delay is expensive.

(One wish was enough for Tobias) Link:   featured Alan Shalloway.  Alan focused his two wishes on: Everyone needs to acknowledge there are laws of software development. Assuming that everyone involved in delivering software is highly motivated.

Jo Ann focused her wishes on: Reminding the listeners that change often starts before IT starts a project there we need to listen carefully to the stakeholders. Project teams should care about end users. Link:   If these excerpts tickled your fancy listen to the whole interview by clicking on the links shown above.   Next week the best excerpts from 2014!
