Over the course of the next seven weeks I will be writing an essay per week on each of the seven Lean Software Development principles. I will be writing about my experience in an amazing turnaround, were we went from being dysfunctional, barely delivering with real quality issues to where we are now with a decent delivery cadence, trust from the "business" and quality issues being eliminated.

* Eliminate waste
* Amplify learning
* Delay commitment
* Deliver fast
* Empowering the team
* Build integrity in
