Schedule a working session
- Explore the feature areas in a nebulous product idea.
- Map the value stream of one of your current processes.
- Draft a set of examples for a feature.
- Conduct a friendly code review.
- Practise some refactoring techniques.
- Try out pair programming with one of the best in the business.
- Discuss something that’s blocking you from doing what you want.
- Debug a conversation that went horribly wrong.
- Try to understand why your co-workers aren’t doing what’s good for them.
Would you like to work with me on something smaller that doesn’t really warrant an expensive visit? Do you have some burning questions that you prefer not to discuss by email? Would you simply like to try working with me before you decide to hire me for an engagement? Whatever your needs, you can purchase a short working session and avoid long approval cycles, expensive flights and hotels, and taking days at a time away from your pressing work.
Get started
Step 1. Request a meeting time
Step 2. Purchase your session. You must pay for your session in the next two days, or before the session starts, whichever comes first.
Step 3. Wait for email confirmation and instructions on how to connect with me for your session.
Step 4. If your session involves code, then either be prepared to host the session on your computer (using screen sharing), or make your code available in a git repository.
Not sure what you can do in only 90 minutes?
I helped a major government contractor see how to reduce billions of dollars in erroneous insurance and health benefit claims. Their complex COBOL-based system allows, for example, men to qualify for a post-natal allowance. Over dinner we sketched a plan to replace the most expensive parts of the legacy system gradually and safely, and now they can save their client signficant sums of money in weeks instead of months.
