Mentorship
I have several years of experience in leading and mentoring people and organizations.
Software/System Architecture
With over 15 years of experience in software development. I have developed a sense of reasonable good and bad architecture. In my opinion, a reasonably good architecture requires that the technical and non-technical requirements are known in advance. In most cases, the communication structure of a company is also reflected in the software/system architecture, especially when it is developed and implemented by multiple teams (Conway's Law).
After reading the book 'Principles' by Ray Dalio. I was inspired to put together my personal working principles.
Meeting
Don’t take the time and attention of work colleagues for granted.
They have to be valued and earned constantly.
Be clear at the start of a meeting. What is the meeting about and for who ?
Change
The power of change and adaptation.
Starts with yourself
Efficiency
Just work Smart.
Don’t repeat over and over the same discussion and conversations. Break repeating cycles they are mostly number one time consumers.
It's all about the ratio of time and outcome.
Tools / People
Tools have to follow people and not the people the tools.
The number one priority of tools is to help people to be more productive and save time instead of cost time.
If tools are not in line with point a) then drop them or replace them with another tool.
Leadership
It’s not about you.
Focus has to be on the people to lead.
Help them to grow.
It’s all about you.
Be authentic and lead by example.
Don’t expect more from others then from yourself
