Principles

These are the principles that guide our work. You'll see these principles reflected in our docs, our code, our processes, and the product itself.

Algorithm

This is the core process that each of us follows.

  1. Say what you'll do
  2. Do it
  3. Reflect
  4. Repeat

Saying it

Make it clear

  1. What outcome you're working towards
  2. When you'll be done
  3. How others can follow your progress (ie what KPIs are you tracking)

Doing it

  1. Work on one thing at a time. Don't switch contexts unnecessarily. Don't interrupt people unnecessarily
  2. Make your progress visible
  3. If you're blocked, let others know

Reflecting

Get better at accomplishing your goals (the doing). But also get better at setting the right goals in the first place (the saying).

Review your

  • KPIs
  • Outcome
  • Feelings

Get clear on

  • What you'll stop doing
  • What you'll continue doing
  • What you'll do differently

Then just do it all again and never stop.
