The Context Clarity Challenge was a 15-week LinkedIn series where I introduced and applied my Context Clarity Framework to real-world scenarios. I created it to demonstrate how a simple, structured canvas can reveal flawed assumptions and reshape strategic thinking.
Why do 3/4 of software product development projects fail, - and why does the remaining 1/4 succeed?
The World is Eventually Consistent
This talk summarizes the gist of 20+ years in the software development business and outlines what the presenter identified as relevant for a productive and thriving survival out there in „the wild“. Learn more about the talk here.Â
During the workshop, we explore the intersection of practical tools like the Business Model Canvas, ideation techniques, and insights from historical innovation. Through interactive exercises, we cultivate a shared understanding and language to facilitate discussions about the future.

What happens when you mix Domain-driven Design, AI tools, and a no-code-until-it’s-done policy? You get Vibe Coding. In this relaxed, hands-on evening where we’d mob-code an app together by only writing prompts to an AI (no peeking at the code!).Â

The DDD Europe Open Space is an online unconference. There is no upfront agenda: participants can self-organise the sessions. The outcomes are unpredictable… but often surprisingly good!
At VirtualDDD I talked about business model innovation and what happens if companies NEED to transform their business - for instance in a situation like this pandemic.Â
Visual Collaboration Tools is a book for software engineering teams. It describes tools that help us in our daily job, and also present field stories from different practitioners.

In this book you can learn about facilitation, preparing meetings, tips and tricks for remote working but mainly about visual collaboration tools.Â

"Bad" news is that it is in Hungarian, so only Hungarian speaker DDD enthusiasts can understand.
Semantics is all about meaning. If there is one thing we struggle with and need to get better at, it is the search for and clarification of meaning. It takes effort and insight. We've talked about what we mean with Kevlin.

You can find the recording of the session on https://virtualddd.com/
I was in a podcast this June where I talked about DDD from the business perspective. "Bad" news is that it is in Hungarian, so only Hungarian speaker DDD enthusiasts can understand.
