1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 SPaMCAST 452 features our essay on personal process improvement. &amp;nbsp;We are responsible for our own path in life. Stepping back and reviewing where we are today and where we want to be tomorrow is a form of a retrospective. &amp;nbsp;Just like any other retrospective, the goal is to change the trajectory of the path you are on. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Kim Pries, the Software Sensei, discusses ethics in software. Ethics guide (or they don’t) practitioners of all types. &amp;nbsp;Many certification organizations include ethics statements but rarely have the teeth to enforce those ethics. &amp;nbsp;Kim asks whether this approach makes sense. Anchoring the cast is Jon M Quigley with his Alpha and Omega of Product Development column. &amp;nbsp;Jon is beginning a three column theme on the impact of people and learning on product development. One of the places you can find Jon is at Value Transformation LLC.
