Cognitive Load
Cognitive load is about the weight of knowledge we have to carry in our brains in order to get our work done. Excess cognitive load brings stress and an inability to focus. This further increases our cognitive load, creating a vicious circle. An important part of the sustainability of anAgileMind is the use of practices to limit cognitive load. Practices that ensure short delivery cycles, small batches of work, focus on one thing can all help to reduce cognitive load.
