You will get slower before you get faster

Last week talked about how your data team can move faster. Source control, Environment strategy and CI/CD.

Here’s the harsh truth if you focus on any of these areas.

You will get slower before you get faster. New processes will take a while to formulate, longer to build, and even longer to fit smoothly into your team’s work. It requires admitting and owning that your processes aren’t going as well as they could.

Being resilient through slow work sets disciplined teams apart from the rest.

Removing friction requires sanding. The capacity of your team to scale with demand, bug fixes, and enhancements is on the other side of the grit of sandpaper.
