Editor's Notes
- #11 Six Sigma is a methodology that relies on measurement, analysis, and optimization of processes. It’s used in manufacturing as well as software development, where the reduction of errors is paramount to improving quality of the resulting product. But it’s basic principles can be applied to any output produced by a process that can be measured.
- #12 Silos and speed
- #15 People collaborating: sharing Programmability: automation Optimizing processes: measurements = new culture
