The technical debt metaphor acknowledges that teams sometimes accept compromises to meet an urgent demand. Although unmanaged debt can have disastrous results, strategically managed debt can help businesses take advantage of time-sensitive opportunities. During this session,we will play the Hard Choices game. In your quest to release a quality product, you must decide in the face of uncertainty whether to take shortcuts and incur penalties, or to traverse more of the board to potentially earn more value. At the end, we‘ll compare strategies and share practices to help make these choices.
