- Blame me for the editor.
- Shared Story. Cast vision to audience that while I’m talking about how Atlassian does things, the thing that we’re actually doing (product dev) is something we all do. Next slide is burger, lead in.
- Overview of the structure of the talk. Use as opportunity to rehash the shared vision. We’re very good at this, but we’re not perfect.

- Lead into ‘new is a constant’ tweet.
- This is the same across all organizations, no one has to look far to find something that someone wants them to add to a product. * marketing * tech writing * product managers * support
- We don’t stress over capturing every good idea into stories or in a roadmap. One thing that good agile practices help you to understand is how quickly things change for you as an organization. At Atlassian we’ve found that we change fairly quickly. Better ideas come along all the time so we don’t make concrete road maps until late in the game. Confluence helps us here because it doesn’t forget things that happened 6 months ago, we can find them if we need too, but they also don’t bother you by lingering on a backlog. If it didn’t get into a sprint within 6 months of someone coming up with the idea, is it important to formally define it (stories/tasks/estimation)?
- popular content, shares, mentions and likes These are built in lurker to participant converters. They push conversation and participation.
- This is a way in which we are probably different than other organizations. Product ideas and feature approaches are constantly happening and being spiked inside a dynamic, agile development organization. These pages crop up all over the place in our internal wiki. Sometimes they are blogs, sometimes they are FedEx shipment orders and sometimes they are pages inside of any number of spaces. We don't demand that everyone write everything down all the time (we don't take meeting minutes for example) so we're not worried about these things getting `lost`. If someone is writing it down it's because they care about it and they will bring it up later, link too it and advocate for it. There is little to no overlap between "Get it down" and prioritization or true planning. Developers shine here, they love writing about stuff they care about and we want our developers to be innovative.
- Getting feedback on new ideas is no difficult task at Atlassian. HipChat integration allows us to track spaces in Confluence for newly created pages. Shares and mentions allow us to pull others into conversations when we create new blog posts. Combine these features with the popular content panel on the dashboard and you have a perfect storm for getting lots of great feedback on your ideas and feature plans.
- Posts in Confluence get sent to HipChat and of course inside of confluence you can see who is currently available inside chat.
- In a company full of engineers you’re sure to get feedback of all types. This is an important facet of our culture and it’s never led us into ruin. It’s just important to understand that you aren’t your ideas and that you work with some of the smartest people in the world. Feedback ranges from simple Likes to full page comments detailing the trials and tribulations that lie ahead for the feature a page is advocating for. We try and keep it brief and focused and at some point the truly valuable feedback bubbles to the top through likes, child comments and popular content. This collaboration leads to great product. Balance is neither software driven nor enforced by process. Balance is cultural.

- 35 comments over a very simple feature. Zero meetings. MCB: no edit mode sorting MR: return to non-sorted order MR2: sort indicators only on hover
- 1. Braindump to Brief 2. Brief to wireframe 3. Wireframe to design 4. Design to implementation 5. Validate and iterate
- Most of this happens outside of Atlassian tooling. We use Adobe software for our visual designs. Some related to visual design do end up in Confluence. Our internal style guide and design language is in Confluence so that designers and developers alike can reference it to see if there are patterns for the types of components that they are working on.
- Atlassian has a great reputation as an Agile shop and that’s absolutely well deserved. It’s always important for us to say though, that we have no illusions of having ‘solved the problem’. If we believed this, we would have a one true way and we don’t. Atlassian practices polyglot agile. We have teams doing prototypical Scrum, several doing Kanban, sprints range from single weeks to a month. Process, even very light process requires consistent iteration. Don’t iterate toward additional process, iterate toward less process or at the very least less burdensome process.
- In JIRA, we often scope the phrase ‘Plan it’ here to mean plan the sprint. We plan longer term vision in Confluence so that we can Collaborate more easily with remote teams and less technical members of the team. We’ve found the sandbox nature of Confluence to be more conducive to long term vision and JRIA/GreenHopper to be great for giving teams vision into their own cadence and progress. Confluence has 4 x-functional teams each with several developers, one to two QA members and a team lead. Each of these teams also has a PM and technical writer assigned to the team which while being on their own respective teams are for the sake of agile considered a part of the team. They negotiate and commit to plans with us. Each of the four teams rotates through feature work and bug fixing. Plug better together.

- As you can see creating and tracking tasks for business users is really easy. We've got: A really simple and easy way to create tasks on a page @mentioning a user assigns them a task In addition, everyone's got their own personal task list. Here they can add their personal todo's, see all the tasks they've created from notifications or all the tasks assigned to them from content in one place They can prioritise their tasks or mark them off as complete from here and the respective notifications will go out...
- The initial plan may not be what ends up happening. Commitments and priorities shift over a three month period for all agile teams and of course slippage occurs from time to time. We leverage the strengths a wiki and treat all documents related to any given release as live documents where anyone can edit to keep them consistent with reality. As agile strives to help us be transparent about success, slip and outright failure, Confluence helps us communicate that transparency to everyone involved whether they are sitting next or us or across the ocean.

- 1. For Dream It, we’re talking about getting ideas down, hashing them out. Recognising that high engagement in conversation is driven by culture. Change is constant, don’t make lots of lists (Confluence doesn’t forget) and leverage lurker to participant tools. 2. For Plan It, we capture micro level tasks in JIRA and track macro doneness in Confluence. 3. Build it happens mostly in code. Tracking is enabled by JIRA/Confluence integration and discussion artifacts from earlier phases are critical to the builders. 4. At launch we’re interested in communicating to the team what’s gotten done, getting everyone on message and celebrating our success.
