This week at work an email came out raising the discussion of job titles, referencing a series of recent articles sharing the notion of using creative descriptions such as Director of Culture etc. I responded suggesting that mine be Tamer of Unicorns.
Unicorns have been a big deal this week, mainly as a mechanism to acknowledge front and center that some words are overloaded in technology groups – in this particular instance it was Agile, so rather than wrestle with the notion that Agile had been tried already, I started calling the development methodology the Pink Unicorn, clearly differentiating it from anything tried previously here. Agile is a collection of approaches tools and techniques that is used to deliver software iteratively and collaboratively.
