Keynote: Power to the Programmers

Delegation of power to programmers is a smart idea. It is provably and measurably smarter than leaving the power with managers to design the developer’s work environment, and with IT architects to design the technology that we should program.

Devolving the power to create a better working-environment, and to design the technology for our stakeholders, is better because developers are closer to the action, are more informed in practical detail and they can rapidly and frequently, test and measure, that their ideas really work.
