In my earlier post, <\/span>Testing to Improve Flow Means Happier Teams<\/span><\/a>, I talked about how a lightweight test may shine a light on one or more experiments to start with. Let’s explore how one can improve team flow by creating an environment where experimentation can take place and where real change is possible. <\/span><\/p>\n

A quote by Theodore Roosevelt has resonated with me for years and at times, has been a good reminder that there’s something noble about tackling the big challenges. <\/span><\/p>\n

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”<\/span><\/i><\/h4>\n
