An aspect that is not always spoken about is the fact that during development, time is not always on the team's side.

Regardless of the reason you may end up taking over another work, which can be great but also challenging, so let us talk about what we can do once handed ownership.

As LDs our role & focus will change to best meet those stages of production. I will talk through what it is that makes a good LD in each of these stages.
