I&rsquo;ve never touched anchovies since and it has taken me a long time to get used to the idea of eating fish at all. But that&rsquo;s not what I&rsquo;m here to write about. I&rsquo;m here to share a different experience of fish bones.</p> <p>Recently I was preparing for a conversation with a customer where they&rsquo;d asked to discuss a broad range of technologies. With these discussions, I&rsquo;ve found that it is easy to get sucked into technical detail and lose sight of the main agenda. This is particularly true if the discussion involves a technical demo. I enjoy these types of discussion, but have been looking for ways to help keep things on track.</p>
