Bob Hartman (Agile Bob) ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[email_address] 303-766-0917 blog: www.agilebob.com Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Is your organization doing agile? Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
What do you consider doing agile? Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Are you doing agile better now than when you started doing agile? Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Awesome!  It sounds like doing agile is working for many of you! Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
…  or is it? Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Is agile working for you …  AGILE Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
…  or are you a slave to it? AGILE Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Any of these look familiar? Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile Stories committed 15 15 13 Stories accepted 10 9 8
How long has it been like that? Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Why is little to no progress ok? Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Because DOING agile hits a brick wall Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Randy Pausch on brick walls “ Brick walls are there for a reason. The brick walls are not there to keep us out.  The brick walls are there to show how badly we want something.  Because the brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want something badly enough. They are there to keep out the  other  people.” –  from “The Last Lecture” Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
How do you get through the wall? Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
One answer: Raise the wall off the ground Need a foundation to support raising the wall Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Go back to the foundations of agile Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
One foundation: The Agile Manifesto Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Another foundation:  Lean thinking Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
A 3 rd  foundation: Common sense! RIP Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Thinking agile + doing agile = being agile Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Top 10 ways to “think agile” AGILE Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile From the home office in Aurora, Colorado…
#10:  Think small.  No, smaller! Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
#9:  Ask “How will we improve?” Then do it! Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
#8:  Collaborate. No, really. Collaborate! Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
#7:  Ask “What does the team think?” OUR Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
#6:  Always, always, always think about… Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
#6:  Root cause, not band-aids Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
#4:  Failure is ok (with 3 conditions) Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
#3:  Measure influence not control Span of control (dev) – items directly controlled Span of influence – must have teamwork and rely on others to succeed Span of control (dev): Coded story points Span of control (QA): Number of tests run Span of influence: Features in the field with no reported bugs in 90 days Span of control (QA) – items directly controlled Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
#2:  Have 3 headed conversations Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile Ask:  How can we have the ability to accept stories every single day of every single iteration and know the whole system still works correctly all the time?
Brainstorm time! ,[object Object],[object Object],Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Leading causes of agile failure ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Does Ken Schwaber have it right? Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
I think he does … Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
…  but using isn’t the same as BEING! Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
A final key thought Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Oops, let me be agile about that Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile As a team We want to be transparent So that we can inspect closely and adapt  meaningfully User Story
One more time for the BDD folks Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile Acceptance Criteria Given  that we are being transparent When  we inspect closely Then  we should be able to adapt meaningfully
Goal: Plan… Do… Check… Act… Repeat with improvement! Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile
Doing Agile isn’t the Same as BEING Agile Bob Hartman Certified Scrum Coach Agile For All 303-766-0917 [email_address] Web: www.agileforall.com Blog: www.agilebob.com

Editor's Notes

  1. Do you have daily standups? Do you use planning poker or another collaboration technique for sizing? Do you use a big visible board of some sort to track status of your iterations? Or if you are using Kanban do you have the board clearly visible by everyone? Are you doing iterations at all? How about iteration demonstrations? How about retrospectives?
  2. Are you doing daily stand-up meetings? Is the voice of the customer represented? Do you work in iterations? Do you demonstrate working software? Do you do retrospectives? Are you pair programming? Are you doing test-driven development? Is your team cross-functional?
  3. Have you increased productivity, stakeholder satisfaction, or quality? Have you reduced time-to-market? Have you increased ROI?
  4. Is agile a tool to help you get thee results you want/need, or…
  5. Are you blindly following the practices every iteration because that is how you were taught?
  6. Boring daily stand-up Lengthy planning meetings Dropping stories each iteration Code freezes for testing …
  7. Doing agile means you keep doing the same thing over and over again while expecting a different result. What’s that called? Insanity!
  8. Product, dev, QA
