      <title>Statement of Values</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;My name is Ben Rady, and I am a software craftsman.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;
&lt;h5&gt;As a technical leader, I value:&lt;/h5&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Talented People&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Rapid Feedback
&lt;li&gt;Individual Relationships
&lt;li&gt;Facilitation over command and control
&lt;li&gt;Continuous Improvement
&lt;li&gt;Frequent Delivery
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;h5&gt;As a programmer, I value:&lt;/h5&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Working Software
&lt;li&gt;Clean Code
&lt;li&gt;Rich Communication
&lt;li&gt;Flexibility over efficiency
&lt;li&gt;Sustainable Pace
&lt;li&gt;Simplicity
&lt;li&gt;Failing Fast over hiding errors
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;h5&gt;As a human being, I value:&lt;/h5&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Courage, not cowardice
&lt;li&gt;Humility, not hubris
&lt;li&gt;Compassion, not callousness
&lt;li&gt;Curiosity, not apathy
&lt;li&gt;Discipline, not carelessness
&lt;li&gt;Honesty, not deceit
&lt;li&gt;Patience, not intolerance
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;A truely great list that I may well stick to my monitor :)&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;The only thing I&amp;#8217;d alter is &amp;#8220;Maintainability over efficiency&amp;#8221;.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;Maintainable software is flexible, the reverse is often not true.&lt;/p&gt;
