Find the root cause

On episode #8 we have Kenny Baas-Schwegler. We started the interview with the heuristic “Find the root cause” from the Xebia Essentials repository (https://essentials.xebia.com/genchi-genbutsu/). Kenny shares with us the importance of balancing two powerful forces, love and power in a working environment. Also, how we can manage uncertainty using Cynefin, Deep Democracy, Domain-Driven Design and Visual Collaboration.

Kenny recommends:

• Virtual Domain-Driven Design (https://virtualddd.com/)
• Rebecca Wirfs-Brock (@rebeccawb)
• Ruth Malan (@ruthmalan)
• Dawn Ahukanna (@dawnahukanna)
• Diana Montalion (@dianamontalion)
• Deep Democracy (https://lewisdd.com)
• “Sitting in the fire” by Arnold Mindell

By leveraging Deep Democracy, Domain-Driven Design, Continuous Delivery and Visual collaborate tools, Kenny ([@kenny_baas]https://twitter.com/kenny_baas) empowers organisations, teams and people in building valuable quality software products.

One of his core principles is sharing knowledge. He does that by blogging on his website (https://baasie.com) and also organise several meetups like Virtual Domain-Driven Design, Domain Driven Design Nederland. He is a public speaker giving talks and hands-on workshops at conferences and meetups.
