  • Temporary Isn't a Feature: How 'We'll Fix It Later' Shapes Systems and Strategy

    Temporary Isn't a Feature: How 'We'll Fix It Later' Shapes Systems and Strategy
    Apr 27 2026
    Most organisations treat "temporary" fixes as a verbal IOU: stitch something together now and replace it later. In reality those promises rarely survive handovers, budget rounds and new priorities—temporary code, manual workarounds and one-off processes become durable constraints. In this episode Mirko Peters lays out why "temporary" decisions calcify into permanent architecture and behaviour, how incentives and accounting practices make "later" invisible, and how both business and IT unintentionally incubate technical debt. You’ll get a concise, practical framework to classify temporary work, make time-limited choices explicit, attach sunset and ownership rules, and align budget and risk so interim solutions remain reversible. Expect clear, consultant-tested actions you can use next week: capture known-badness as a decision, set measurable sunset criteria, negotiate rollback funding, and create a lightweight governance pattern that keeps temporary actually temporary.

  • Who Owns the Non‑Functional Story? Turning NFRs into Decisions, Not Arguments

    Who Owns the Non‑Functional Story? Turning NFRs into Decisions, Not Arguments
    Apr 25 2026
    Non-functional requirements live in the shadow of feature requests: everybody assumes them, nobody signs them. In this episode Mirko Peters reframes NFRs—reliability, performance, security, operability, maintainability—as a portfolio of explicit decisions that require owners, trade-offs, and acceptance criteria. Through the lens of business goals and technical constraints, he explains how vague demands become overruns, rework, and blame, and shows a practical path to turn qualitative concerns into measurable policies: priority mapping, decision records, service-level translations, and lightweight acceptance tests. Listeners get concrete scripts to extract business intent, a checklist IT teams can use to propose viable options, and a compact governance pattern that prevents NFRs from becoming permanent debt. This episode is for execs, product managers, architects and engineering leaders who need fewer arguments and more actionable choices when non-functional aspects determine cost, risk, and competitive capability.

  • Budget Rhythms: How Financial Calendars Shape Technical Choices

    Budget Rhythms: How Financial Calendars Shape Technical Choices
    Apr 22 2026
    Budget Rhythms examines the invisible force that steers product and technical decisions: the financial calendar. Across organizations, quarter- and year-end deadlines, capital versus operating classifications, procurement windows and forecast-driven prioritization consistently nudge teams toward short-term fixes, scope-slicing, and risky cutbacks. This episode lays out the business incentives that make those choices sensible on paper and the technical realities they create over time. I’ll unpack where the common misalignments live, illustrate a typical consulting case where budget timing forced an avoidable rework cycle, and give concrete rules of thumb both leaders and engineers can use to negotiate trade-offs without trading away future agility. Practical, no-nonsense, and focused on decisions you can change tomorrow—this episode helps you treat budgets as a design constraint rather than a recurring surprise.
