Power, hierarchy and OS

[Harrison Owen]

 "I often get the question from managers "would'nt it be better if we stayed
out of the conversations?".

 

 

Katia - the "never-fail" response for such managerial questions is, "If you
have no value to add, you definitely should stay out." Seems to catch them
at an odd point.

Raffi, thank you for the reference to the OS Idea Book (and Lisa for writing
it!). I was just about to post a question about whether such a document
exists. I often get the question from managers "would'nt it be better if we
stayed out of the conversations?". I love it when they raise this point,
because it allows me to explore the subject. But often I only meet a design
team / part of the management, and having a document that can be used as a
reference will definitely help.

 

I'm off to Amazon now, to purchase the book!

Katia
