SPaMCAST 229 - Act or Be Acted Upon, Revisited, Daily Process Thoughts

Welcome to the Software Process and Measurement Cast 229! The Software Process and Measurement Cast 229 features my essay titled, Act or Be Acted Upon, Revisited.Stephen Covey's book The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People has resonated with me across the years. The single most important principle for me has been “act or be acted upon”. I have thought a lot about that principle this week. Daily Process Thoughts!
