• Start with needs
• Do less
• Design with data
• Do the hard work to make it simple
• Iterate. Then iterate again.
• This is for everyone
• Understand context
• Build digital services, not websites
• Be consistent, not uniform
• Make things open: it makes things better

Conscious risk-taking
• Scrum
• Incremental delivery
• Invite all stakeholders including steering committee to demos
• Create awareness around the method
• Demand decisions makers to be active in prioritization
• Put people before processes. Never talk about resources, talk about people instead!
