PM_Tech··on New Study Contradicts Malcolm Gladwell's 10,000 Rule
Native skill is largely a myth.

According to Matthew Syed in Bounce (a very good read) there are numerous fields in which native or genetic skill is considered the norm (sports, chess, math) but no studies support that hypothesis.

Conversely a number of studies actively disprove that native skill exists. Ultimately, barring true genetic freaks (Michael Phelps wingspan for instance) anyone could achieve any level of any pursuit with enought focussed practice and a degree of luck.

PM_Tech··on Redesigning The World Cup 2014 Brazil
A bit abrasive; I do agree though.
PM_Tech··on Ask HN: Can Agile exist within Waterfall?
Really helpful. Much appreciated. Push back is not available unfortunately. They are beyond Initiation and and into Planning. It's a SAP migration to SAP HANA at the same time as a complete front end website redesign (5 million pages+).

Sincerely appreciate you pitching in.
