Minpunten
- Inconsistent Prioritization and Planning: At times, planning can feel scrambled and not everyone is on the same page as far as what should be prioritized, which can lead to confusion about tasks and objectives.
- Overcommitment: Validate sometimes commits to too many promises simultaneously, which can be stressful for the tech team and consultants.
- Meeting Management: Meetings can be lengthy and unfocused, detracting from time available for actual dev work.
