Your Demo Needs a Stakeholder
Are your daily software demos an absolute snore-fest? Good. That’s exactly why you should be holding them! In this week's episode, Squirrel and Jeffrey react to listener feedback on the fear of daily demos. We explore how exposing raw back-end outputs can act as an "unfreezing event" that forces middle management to get out of the way and lets you build true team cohesion.
