The Ecocyle Planning (6)
Step back to digest the patterns and ask yourself:
What activities do we need to creatively destroy (#1) or stop to move forward (#2)?
What activities do we need to expand (#3) or start to move forward (#4)?
(In other words: is the pattern “right?”)
⏰ 15 minutes

#4g
The Ecocyle Planning (7)
In small groups:
Create for all activities in the Rigidity Trap first action steps.
Create for all activities in the Poverty Trap first action steps.
Discuss all activities where there is no consensus and create first action steps—if
possible.

Imported from Japan, Kanban is an agile methodology that is gaining a lot of traction. Kanban, or Japanese for signal card, is a process that focuses on transparency and limiting the work in progress. By utilizing Kanban, you can pinpoint the bottlenecks and address them easily. In this session you will learn what Kanban is, how it evolved from its roots in the Toyota Production System (TPS) and lean manufacturing to software development, Kanban’s benefits, and how best to implement a Kanban system. We’ll also discuss when not to use Kanban and how to modify other agile methodologies, such as Scrum, to be used in conjunction with Kanban.

This two-part interactive workshop begins with a detailed look at how to interpret Kanban boards and ask thoughtful questions so that you can improve the work of your teams. We will provide an overview of the Kanban Method and then proceed through a series of eight short exercises that will give you an opportunity to review and interpret various Kanban board configurations with other attendees at your table. After a short break, part two of the session now puts the attendees in the driver’s seat to create their own board configurations. We provide eight business scenario exercises and ask the attendees how they would go about configuring their Kanban board given the unique system constraints for each scenario.

Should you use Scrum or Kanban? You don’t have to choose: Scrum teams improve when they look at flows inside and outside their sprints from a Lean/Kanban perspective. In this session we will talk about Kanban-related myths prevalent in the Scrum world and identify common ground between them. We will look at ways to bring Kanban flow into your Scrum: the Kanban-based Sprint/product backlog, flow-based daily Scrum, visualizing aging work, and flow-based Sprint planning .We will describe ways to wrap Scrum with a Kanban flow system, and how DevOps fits into this picture. You’ll leave with a better understanding of how Scrum, Kanban, and DevOps relate to each other and with ideas for experiments to try when back at work.

Sans doute vous identifiez vous dans une ou plusieurs des situations suivantes: - plusieurs équipes Scrum travaillent dans votre entreprise, parfois sur un même projet ou des projets connexes - la coordination entre équipes Scrum n'est pas optimale - vous-même, ou certains stakeholders, ont besoin d'une vue plus long terme sur vos projets Agile, plus que "juste le prochain sprint" - sur base du succès de Scrum dans votre entreprise, vous voulez allez plus loin et vous voulez rendre plus agile l'entièreté de votre entreprise Si c'est le cas, venez découvrir le framework SAFe. Après une présentation du framework et de ses fondements, vous serez en mesure de mieux le comprendre, et de voir ce qu'il peut apporter ou non à votre entreprise.

The 16th Hands-on Agile meetup continues exploring Liberating Structures for Scrum events. This time, we address the Sprint Review. Liberating Structures cover a set of easy to learn, yet powerful ways to collaborate as a team—even as a large team—, overcoming traditional communications approaches like presentations, managed discussions, or another disorganized brainstorming at which the loudest participants tend to prevail. Throughout the coming months, we will create exciting new ways how to improve classic Scrum events like the Daily Scrum, the Sprint Review, or the Sprint Retrospective. Moreover, we will use Liberating Structures for difficult challenges that agile coaches, Scrum Masters, and Product Owners face, for example, reviewing the existing product design process.

Leaders rely on effective meetings to get work done. What if you could make your staff meetings, your board and stakeholder meetings, or your community meetings more effective and efficient? What if you could do it tomorrow?</p> <p>Underneath what we see as a "meeting" is an unseen structure that influences how we behave. This webinar will help you recognize these structures and identify more effective ones for your meetings. Using an appropriate structure makes it easier to stay focused, manage time and conflicts ... and build better decisions. The webinar teaches an approach that is different from other approaches to "better meetings." You will learn to recognize and choose the most effective structures for particular meetings. Leave this webinar having the tools you need to run successful meetings - without relying on meeting "rules," facilitators or special training.

Is there any waste in your process? Yes! There are 8 of them to be exact. And one way to root out the 8 Wastes is to conduct a Waste Walk. It’s a great way to introduce co-workers to “see with new eyes,” recognize the process issues all around them and start thinking about ways to get rid of unnecessary steps, activities and materials. Join this webinar for a simple guide to a sight-seeing tour of the 8 Wastes along with next steps.

Lessons learned and keys to success that were harvested by June Holley from a 5 module virtual practicum that was based on principles of learning and behavior change. This will be relevant to leadership programs and networks that want to augment face to face time with virtual learning opportunities that can address the geographic, time, and cost challenges of working only through face to face connections. As a teaser one of the lessons is the importance of “having the capacity to have breakout group capacity to increase engagement around content.”

Slides from 90 minute workshop at Agile on the Beach 2019. https://agileonthebeach.com/sessions/2019/liberating-structures/ Abstract: What would be made possible if you could unleash the intelligence and creativity of everyone? Liberating Structures are a collection of easy-to-learn facilitation patterns that make this possible. They’re field tested, rooted in complexity science and freely shared under a creative commons licence. Through this workshop, participants will gain a practical hands-on experience of several Liberating Structures, and an appreciation of some of the possibilities they offer. We will consolidate learning by alternating between practice of a structure and reflection on the experience and possible applications in participants’ own contexts.

Your team is supposed to use an agile approach, such as Scrum. But you have a years-long backlog, your standups are individual status reports, and you’re still multitasking. You and your team members wish you had the chance to do great work, but this feels a lot like an “agile” death march. There’s a reason you feel that way. You’re using fake agility—a waterfall lifecycle masquerading as an agile approach. Worse, fake agility is the norm in our industry. Instead, you can assess your culture, project, and product risks to select a different approach. That will allow you to choose how to collaborate so you can iterate over features and when to deliver value. When you do, you are more likely to discover actual agility and an easier way to work. Now, there is light at the end of the tunnel; let's delve into Tackling Fake Agility with Johanna Rothman!

ABSTRACT Your team is supposed to use an agile approach, such as Scrum. But you have a years-long backlog, your standups are individual status reports, and you’re still multitasking. You and your team members wish you had the chance to do great work, but this feels a lot like an “agile” death march. There’s a reason you feel that way. You’re using fake agility—a waterfall lifecycle masquerading as an agile approach. Worse, fake agility is the norm in our industry. No one has to work that way. Instead, you can assess your culture, project, and product risks to select a different approach. That will allow you to choose how to collaborate so you can iterate over features and when to deliver value. When you do, you are more likely to discover actual agility and an easier way to work. LEARNING OBJECTIVES Have a clear understanding of the different lifecycles and when to use each. Be able to assess your project, product, and portfolio risks. Know how to customize a lifecycle based on the unique culture and requirements of the team. How to create shorter feedback loops in any lifecycle for product success. MEET JOHANNA “People know me as the “Pragmatic Manager.” I offer frank advice—often with a little humor—for your tough problems. I help leaders and managers see and do reasonable things that work. Equipped with that knowledge, you can decide how to adapt your product development, always focusing on the business outcomes you need. My philosophy is that people want to do a good job. They don't always know what they are supposed to do, nor how to do it.”

Abstract: Humble Planning: How To Make Your Plans Suck Less In this talk, Maarten will introduce the concept of humble planning and why it's crucial for succeeding with an Agile way of working and building products of exceptional value. When faced with uncertainty, risk, and complexity, our natural response is to focus on what we know and to spend more time talking, analyzing, planning, and predicting. As a result, our plans become filled with speculation and rooted in our imagination. Our plans as an anchor stifle the ability to respond to changes. We become locked into plans that prevent collaboration, learning, and discovery. In this talk, Maarten will show why instead of starting with overconfident plans, we should start with humble plans: How can we encourage our teams to begin with humble plans and what do teams need to adapt their plans as they discover and learn what’s necessary while doing the work? The talk will cover concepts like friction, the three gaps model of Bungay, intent, intent-based leadership, humble planning, sprint goals, the fog of beforehand, and the fog of speculation. Meet Maarten Dalmijn Maarten Dalmijn is a consultant, speaker, and trainer at Dalmijn Consulting. He is the author of the book Driving Value with Sprint Goals. Maarten helps teams to beat the feature factory all over the world. Millions of practitioners have read his best-practice articles on Agile, Scrum, and Product Management. He specializes in helping companies to build empowered teams that can discover better ways of delivering value. Maarten is a frequent speaker at Fortune 500 companies and international industry conferences. He has worked with many award-winning start-ups and scale-ups. He is an ambassador and editor at Serious Scrum, the largest Scrum publication on Medium.

(1) Abstract: Designing Agile Ecosystems with Org Topologies™ Over the past decade, heavyweight methods like SAFe® have dominated the agile landscape, offering tools for “scaling agile.” Yet questions arise about their prescriptive nature and genuine agility. Framework-agnostic approaches like Team Topologies™ and unFix™ have recently emerged, offering more flexible, “buffet-style” organizational design choices. However, they demand a deep understanding of organizational design, systems thinking, and queuing theory to avoid pitfalls. Org Topologies™ bridges the gap between rigid frameworks and DIY methods by emphasizing ecosystems—interconnected organizational parts that exhibit specific behaviors. Co-creators Alexey Krivitsky and Roland Flemm will introduce a method to navigate and improve organizational ecosystems for agility. (2) Meet Alexey Krivitsky Alexey Krivitsky, a pioneer Scrum Master in Ukraine since 2005, is a CST, CEC, and organizational agility coach. He’s a notable conference producer and speaker and created the lego4scrum game. (3) Meet Roland Flemm Roland Flemm transitioned from a 20-year developer career to a Scrum Master in 2009, specializing in large-scale Scrum consultations from 2015. An active conference speaker, he created the Koos Coach comics and “Elements of Scrum” learning cards.

Overcoming Common Product Backlog Management Traps — David Pereira at the 54....

Stefan Wolpers

How teams manage their Product Backlog often makes or breaks their value creation chances. Poor backlog management leads to a feature factory trap, while a mindful strategy enables the team to drive value steadily. Over the years, David has identified common traps teams often face and learned how to overcome them the hard way. Let David help you identify such challenges and help you overcome them, too. David is a passionate Product Leader with over ten years of product management experience. Over the last few years, he led many product teams in successful endeavors. His biggest fear is the comfort zone. His motto is the faster we learn, the faster we succeed. He has been working as a Product Leader. He’s focused on coaching teams to deliver the highest value for their customers. One of his hobbies is writing articles. He shares his ideas on Substack and loves learning from everyone.

“I’m going to tell you a story. I was coaching an agile coach who lamented that they weren’t connecting with their coaching client, in this case, a development manager. I asked them to share a typical coaching conversation, and they spoke about a series of questions they asked that essentially went unanswered—leaving them and the client quite frustrated. I asked them what other coaching techniques they had tried, and it boiled down to only coaching stances and only open-ended questions. I suggested they experiment with weaving some stories into their coaching conversations. Personal stories, lesson-learned stories, teaching stories, purpose or vision stories, and relationship or connection-building stories. I spoke to them about sharing their knowledge and wisdom with the client via story, not dominating the conversation but augmenting it, and using the story as a backdrop to their questions and explorations with the client. They later told me that this small change significantly impacted their coaching after a bit of practice. This talk is about bringing the power of Storytelling INTO your agile coaching and discovering the magic of the Story. Now, please share this story with others, and I hope to see you in the talk…”

Stefan Wolpers

How can multiple teams work together on a single product? The common wisdom is to carefully align teams and responsibilities to create autonomous teams. But, invariably, this approach eventually runs into cross-team bottlenecks, challenges aligning responsibilities to teams, and difficulties creating cross-functional teams. Fluid Scaling Technology, or FAST, is an innovative new approach that solves these problems. It uses frequent team self-selection to prevent bottlenecks, share knowledge amongst teams, and ensure the right people are working on the right things. It’s simple and lightweight. During the 45th Hands-on Agile meetup, James Shore shared his experiences with scaling Agile: first with traditional approaches and, more recently, with FAST. Learn in about an hour what works, what doesn’t, and how you can try FAST in your organization.

I. The Purpose of the Workshop: A group of up to 20 people will dive deep into building a prototype of an agility assessment framework, aiming at shipping a prototype at end of the day. II. The Intended Outcome: The prototype shall support agile practitioners in assessing, for example: • Whether an organization shall consider embarking on a journey to become agile? • What level of agility might be suited for a specific organization? • What may the return on investment of such a journey be? • How an organization in transition may track progress over time. The outcome of the workshop will be available to all participants — feel free to fork it for your purposes.

Hands-on Agile: The Agility Assessment Framework Workshop

Stefan Wolpers

The slide-deck summarizes the preliminary findings from a survey among agile practitioners what factors influence the maturity of an agile transition at an organizational and at a team level. SURVEY INTRODUCTION 2017-10-19: “This was the best sprint we have ever had. We are becoming (more) agile.” Somehow, a sense of progress always seems to be fuzzy notion when it comes to ‘agile.’ And the question at the heart of all of it is always the same: How do we find out that we are ‘agile’ and are not merely practicing a form of cargo cult version of it? Providing a path to an ultimate state of being has been a core principle of many teachings in philosophy, sociology, politics, and religion: If you follow this code, if you accept the guidance of your life by the following rules everything will be fine. (And for everyone’s convenience, we provide you with a book, a guide, and probably even a checklist.) To no one’s surprise, the agile world is not exempt from that. What started with the Manifesto for Agile Software Development — four values and twelve principles that fit on a single page —, was followed by the still light-weight Scrum Guide. Today, the caliber of teaching has changed — just have a look the big picture diagram of SAFe® — and even in the agile world, the path to the promised land seems to be meticulously laid out. Help us to understand better what the goal of becoming ‘agile’ means for an organization by contributing to this short anonymous survey. It will not take more than five minutes of your valued time. Of course, the results of the survey will be shared at a later stage.

Let’s face it: While your enthusiasm for the big picture of agile practices is admirable, your stakeholders will most likely be moved by one thought only at the beginning of the transition: “What’s in for me? How will I now have my requirements delivered?”. Read on and learn about one way how to kick-off the transition to a learning organization by pitching a simplified version the big picture of agile practices to your stakeholders first.
