I take the risk out of your software development projects and make them valuable, efficient, and predictable.
If you want your software team to be efficient, you have to lose the instinct to start projects right away. When someone hands your team an important new project, it can be easy to want to jump on it right away. After all, it's important, right? But the problem is that everything claims to be important, including the project and tasks your team is currently working on. And when you pull people off of current projects to start new ones, all you're doing is slowing everything down and making everyone unhappy. It might seem like telling a stakeholder that you got started right away on their project will make them happier, but they won't be happy when their project takes longer because your team was spread too thin. Remember: We don't get points for starting work—we get points for finishing work.
