Cult of Done
I had the chance to send a poster to yesterday’s #PraDSA event but - pressed for time with a workshop to do to - I sent along a copy of the Cult of Done Manifesto, to kick off a bit of a debate.
As knowledge workers, the attendees were more sympathetic than some to the ideas, albeit with some caveats at contentious points (e.g. “People without dirty hands are wrong. Doing something makes you right”!).
I used the pretty, typeset version from Joshua Rothhaas. I’m posting here to give full credit to both, and to link to the CC licence. Particularly as I have the poster here at Design Patterns for Civic Empowerment, and have been asked more about it.
