#5amMesterScrum Lightning Talk 1,204 Live - Blindly checking off Report can Lead to total Mistrust and Lost Customer (Metric Monday) - Today's topics: (1) Last week my wife asked me to take her car to the dealership for a scheduled service check. I asked the service manager if they could do a diagnostics as I was worried about traction and also the A/C unit because it would turn off when it was on max fan.  The manager said their was no time for that because it was only scheduled for certain service checks. After being dissatisfied with that I ok then we will schedule a future date for the checks.  At the end of the appointment the service person said the brakes needed work and they could do that, but yet there was no time for a diagnostic. Plus the metric report provided at the end made no mention of recommended work and even checked off the A/C as green.  Well that is the classic watermelon.  Green report but nonfunctional product.

My recording from the IIBA Philadelphia May Chapter Meeting: taken from my co-Authored The Change Book presentation titled Big Dreams Made From Smaller Pieces, Turning No's into Yes's to Help along our Career Journey

Greg brings stories about bringing people to work together, certification journeys, saying Yes to Yourself, assembling the F/A-18E/F Low Rate Initial Production Specification one engineer at a time that can be used along our career journey's as Business Analysts. Greg's solution is about Breaking “No’s” into Smaller “Yes’s” with three self-applied concepts: Turning No’s into smaller easy Yes’s, Saying Yes to Our Own Growth and Transforming Our Own Mindset with small Yes’s to achieve bigger goals. Turning No’s into small Yes’s will open doors for years to come.
