Constantly chasing the latest tech trends has probably done more harm than good, because more often than not, it turns out that the latest hype technology actually does not deliver what the marketing had promised. Look at NoSQL and MongoDB especially as recent examples. Most people who blindly jumped on the MDB bandwagon would have probably been better off just using Postgres, and they later had to spend a lot of resources migrating away from Mongo.

To me constantly chasing the latest trends means lack of experience in a team and absence of focus on what is actually important, which is delivering the product.
