I don't really get this TBH.

Shipping speed never/is was the issue. Most companies are terrible at figuring out what exactly they should be allocating resources behind.

Speeding up does not solve the problem that most humans who are at the top of the hierarchy are poor thinkers. In fact it compounds it. More noise, nice.

Yep requirement gathering takes forever Then validation takes forever

Writing code is lesser problem than figuring out what we want when we want, and to get stakeholders at one place.

Finally, a fella who gets it.

Apple has already shown this decades ago - they got the iPhone and iPod developed and out the door in relatively short-time scales given the impact of the products on the world. Once you know what you want, exactly what you want, things moves fast - really fast.

Lol yeah. Much of the issues re. lack of productivity comes from management who dont have the ability to focus+clarity+confidence of where to go and also create the environment to get the max out of people.
