Sphere of Control: Techniques To Tackle TechDebt Today

Between aggressive deadlines and mounting Tech Debt, teams often feel helpless. They struggle to deliver high-quality solutions they are proud of which also delight their users.

Sometimes leaders can't help them.
Teams recognize the origins of the mess but often grapple to break free.

Thankfully there are tried and true tactics to tackle the tech debt troubles, today! You don't need a dramatic dedicated deconstruction department. You and your team can solve this yourselves!

Learn technical, political, and procedural techniques to create more joy in the new work with less pain from the old.

Through my journeys as a developer and a coach, I've found tried and true actions people can employ today to address this problem.
I think teams need this info to improve their experience, and codebase.
I won't spend much time talking about Tech Debt itself. That topic has been covered well. Instead I'll talk about various small options teams can choose from tomorrow to begin their journey of freedom.
