I saw this recently and couldn't be sure if it was a parody. Aside from making Agile look like a sloppy joke, it's seriously one of the worst, most unhelpful diagrams ever made. It conveys zero amount of meaning because it's such a messy piece of garbage.

I had a friend just recently contact me cuz apparently deloitte had a budget issue laid off a bunch of contractors locally, so friend-of-friend was looking for work. i'd never heard of them until yesterday.

yeah. Deloitte, PWC, Ernst and Young, all that sort of management consulting poo poo has a business model predicated on selling services to confused and directionless executive management teams unable or unwilling to listen to their own in-house expertise.

adding to that confusion means more business. the more they can boost the view that IT, or financials, or what the hell ever is a massive dangerous labyrinth of terror, the more consulting hours they can bill.

no there's specific tools for working with the enormous data sets. it's not that hard though- just more stuff to learn
