I’ve been building ETL processes for many years, and I’ve learned two universal truths: data preparation is messy, and you must always secure your data prep area.

Much is said and written about the Agile Manifesto that if I were to write about it, I’m sure it wouldn’t be anything that hasn’t been said before.

As a product ownership expert and coach, I see teams make a lot of the same mistakes that compromise the very progress they are trying to make.
