Information Management Manifesto: The Start

Information Management Manifesto:
The founding discussion document
The Information Management Manifesto founding document is now available at the following location: http://cambriano.es/content/manifesto/imManifestoDiscussion.001.20120212.pdf
We are uncovering better ways of improving the professionalism, integrity and effectiveness of Information Management, by creating, deploying and refining proven best principles, sound business, project management, architectural, analysis, modelling/design, development, quality assurance, testing, deployment, acceptance, operational continuity and evaluation practices.

Through this work we have come to value:

1. Respecting individual proven knowledge and experience, over... opinion, speculation and tools.
2. Agile and coherent solution approaches that work - repeatedly - over... vapourware, vendor hype and "make it up as you go along" methods.
3. Up close and intimate customer collaboration, over... dissonance, fear of the customer and capability immaturity.
4. Responding to change coherently by unleashing the power of iterative and agile IM, over... fighting fires with cooking oil, coal and gasoline.
5. An acute ability to lesson effectively, comprehend rapidly and do the right thing, over... sign a contract, bill the customer, fail to deliver, then run away.
6. Honesty, integrity, humility, intelligence and effort… over, suckering the punter.
7. Being true to ourselves and others about the extent and limits of our knowledge and experience, over… misguiding peers and customers with speculation and opinion dressed up as facts and first-hand knowledge.
