• All the right skills to deliver value means we need people who can
do stuff (BA’s, Testers, and PM’s all help deliver value)
• Hiring people requires job titles that describe skills. It is very hard

After spending many years on the job, working long hours and
mastering every strange nuance of the systems you are promoted
to a management position. Responsible for others doing the work
that you know so well. After time and proving that you can play the

over time you get promoted higher and higher until you retire.
Changing jobs just changes where you start. The game continues.
