ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Welcome to the Software Process and Measurement Cast's final podcast. Today we have a treat, a radio play titled, Navigating the Silos or Playing a Game with House Rules written by David Herron and me. Over the years, Mr. Herron has been a boss, colleague, mentor, and most of all, a friend. The story unfolds in the aftermath of the late 1990s tech boom. Innovatech, a pioneer in construction software, once rode the wave of innovation, disrupting the industry with its flagship product, Site Flow. However, as the digital landscape evolved, Innovatech found itself struggling to keep pace. Faced with increasing competition and stagnating growth, the company's leadership embraced AI as a panacea. The play is extracted from a business novella/case study that David and I wrote to help process and measurement consultants learn to generate process improvements in organizations. The SPaMCAST players include: Jeremy Willets- Narrator Susan Parente - Emma (the protagonist) David Herron - Jerry, Emma's mentor, and Jeremy, the product owner Tom Cagley - Ali, the gruff CTO Jeremy Berriault- Cory, QA manager Script reviewer included: Jon M Quigley Brad Bittorf Freddie Clark Daniel Dorion Sound Effect by freesound_community from Pixabay And Royalty Free SFX Pack from Dark Fantasy Studio, www.darkfantasystudio.com Mastering Work Intake sponsors SPaMCAST! Starting Everything Means Finishing Nothing One big thing: Poor work entry means delivering less. Why it matters: Work Intake controls what a team works on and when they work on it. Overloaded teams deliver less value. Poor prioritization leads to delivering the wrong work. Chaotic work intake costs organizations money and time.
