My professional mission was to move drudgery from people to machines.

I fulfilled that mission by helping software teams deal with Complexity and Change.

If you don’t have a solid yes! for each of these questions… you may need a Disambiguator:

• Does your team know the value proposition of the solution they are building?
• Is there agreement on the core concept for the product MVP?
• Does the prioritized backlog have crisp, actionable stories on top and fuzzy, still-needs-help stories on the bottom?
• Do your backlog stories declare the right business outcome but avoid being technically prescriptive?
• Does the team have a regular cadence that drives confidence and reduces confusion?
• Is the entire process of defining, designing, and delivering transparent to all stakeholders?
