  3. What were the criteria for killing a project?Do you agree with that approach?
  4. How did X implement "fast failing"?
  5. Should they kill Foghorn or not? Why? What criteria or rationale can you provide?
  6. Can you think of examples of failed projects in companies, and how they've applied that learning from failure to make improvements?Please be specific.
