Executives announce themes. VPs define Initiatives. Directors define epics. Managers define features. Supervisors define stories. All of the above commit to dates. Architects/Designers define specifications. Workers execute, accountable to specification and date. #NotMyAgile

Last iteration, 20 new bugs were added to the backlog AND you failed to meet the velocity target. If you want the business to treat you like a trusted partner, you’re going to have to pick up the pace. #NotMyAgile

Your forecasting technique doesn't address concerns that velocity also does not address, therefore we cannot use it instead of velocity. #NotMyAgile #velocity

To expedite planning, the product Owner has already pointed all the stories and assigned them to each of you for the sprint. Please make sure you uphold this commitment. #NotMyAgile
