Large scale change initiatives have a worryingly high failure rate. A chief reason for which is that serious risks are not identified early. One way to create the safety needed for everyone to speak openly about the risks they see is by running a pre-mortem. In a pre-mortem, we assume that the transformation had already failed and walk backward from there to investigate what led to the failure.

It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

In addition to tying the three artifacts to goals with commitments, we addressed two of the biggest challenges in the industry – servant leaders who don’t lead and self-organizing developers doing whatever they want and not meeting the commitments.

A few years ago I was attending the O’Reilly Software Architecture conference in London where I had prepared a talk on Target’s new vision for the future, a Target Retail Platform. After the conference I had a couple days of vacation and I stopped by an art exhibit at the Saatchi Gallery on Alexander Calder. It was there that I learned that Calder defined the Chief Architect’s purpose better than anyone.

Just like any industry, transportation is experiencing a difficult year. As a result of panic shopping at the start of the pandemic, trucking volumes increased by 30 percent, then plummeted, and only now started rising again. Rail, ocean, and last mile deliveries are down by at least 20 percent. Increased labor costs and declining freight rates, demand for faster shipping with fewer orders, overall higher carrier margins… these are strange times that already affect the operations.
