A chat with Jabe Bloom

The other night, Jabe Bloom and I were preparing a podcast episode. We know since ages but don’t get to meet as often as we should and would like to.

There was some gold in the preparation and so I thought I’d share some bits of our conversation on video.

Here some topics we cover:

• How to deal in management with the tension between love to the thing you produce and the process required to do it efficiently.
• Makers, Pioneers and Fitters
• The challenge of minimising policies. Policy hygiene?
• Design as the challenge to find the best spot in grey between the extremes
• Two certain ways to kill something
• Harmful amounts of process endangers us to act in bad ways
• Necessary Levels of abstraction bring necessity of translation

Have fun!
