Our approach is to get middle level and junior employees to take ownership of and drive the sharing of subjects or topics and make them present it with guidance from their seniors.

5. The HR Team builds a 3 month plan along with their Leads which gets approved by management before its initiated.
6. A repository of Presentations and Technical Exercises is made available to everyone. Seniors and Employees are asked to "flesh out" the topics proposed into presentations.
7. Each Technology Team is asked to write a Guidelines or Coding Guidelines document which can be fine tuned per project or team.
8. A Review, Code Review and Retrospective process is initiated.

Here will be me outlining the Corporate Vision for Spiritual Transformation, I'm so tired of today's mantra #DigitalTransformation...

How to Use Skills and Intuition

There was once an impulsive decision to assume command and improvise on the spot. Knowing full well Pirsig's Metaphysics of Quality and still revering the STATIC MUD ENCRUSTED System that robs us of initiative, I chose STILL TO FLOUT EVERY RULE.

The proper means of enacting change

1. Observe
2. Record
3. Ideate
4. Thought Experiment / Field Experiments within very small boundaries.
5. Report Findings and get BUYIN from STAKEHOLDERS
6. Prioritize the Plan and start establishing the Communication Channel. Look for Tools like Abstractspoon's TODOList or Microsoft Teams.
7. Brief the Leaders and Quality Conscious Team on how to take things forward. Build them into a tight multilateral probem solving unit.
8. Call an ALL HANDS ON DECK MEETING
9. ENACT on the FIELD
10. Have a way to track each sprint / week and Keep Revising the Plans, Process and Training
