Project team new to Agile: framework to accelerate team effectiveness
“12-slice pizza”: understand and actively manage all aspects that drive team effectiveness – the old “people, process, technology” still apply. Even more importantly so if the project is pushing the Agile boundaries (large team, scope not really negotiable, skills gap).
Prioritize, pace, plan, manage the required actions.

Regulatory examination response: “start with the end in mind” – with drafting the response letter
Audience for this material:
Sponsor rep / PM leading regulatory response project
How is this material different: You can find best practices for examination preparation and interacting with examiners, but little on how to design the solution that would satisfy the recommendations – like here
What problem does it address: Regulator’s recommendations target complex, system problems, and have pre-defined, limited response runway – alignment, focus and avoiding major course corrections are critical to effective and timeline response
Key point:“start with the end in mind” – with drafting the response
Benefits:
Minimizes risk that solution pursued will not have leadership support / will not be best response / will not be ready on time
Solution built directly supports desired response
Scales to any organization size
What this material is / what is not: It is starter list, not a playbook
Credentials:
I have used this approach at a large bank’s OSFI response program; all responses sent on time and accepted by regulator
