Chapter Three of Malcolm Gladwell's The Tipping Point is a reminder of why this book continues to be important and useful. The density of ideas in this chapter is amazing. Stop borrowing your best friends copy and buy a copy of the book for yourself!

There is not a straightforward answer because regardless of the path forward there are people issues that need to be dealt with first. We will also have a visit from Susan Parente who brings her 'I am not a Scrumdamentalist' column to the cast!
