A core driving factor for most business owners is, understandably, the need to maximise revenue and accelerate business growth. Yet this is often easier said than done, with periods of stagnation and an ever-changing market causing a halt in progress. This isn't to mention the mistakes commonly made by entrepreneurs, many of which can push your business ten steps backwards rather than forwards. To overcome this, you must adapt your strategy and look at new techniques to expedite both growth and revenue. This is where Strategy Sprints come in - a technique that creator Simon Severino (CEO and Business Strategy Advisor of Strategy Sprints) says will have drastically positive results. In the latest episode of B2B Revenue Acceleration, our host Aurelien Mottier (CEO and Co-Founder of Operatix) sat do wn with Simon to discuss the Strategy Sprints methodology. Listen into their conversation as they discuss how the method improves operations and accelerates business growth, as well as the habits successful entrepreneurs should have, business best practices and mistakes to avoid.

This episode is a re-release of a 2019 conversation our host, Leslie Morse, had with Billie Schuttpelz about imposter syndrome and authenticity. This was the 11th episode of our series and it's fascinating how important many of these topics still are.   As you listen, we hope these words of wisdom from Billie stick out to you as much as they did for us. “What if instead of finding my purpose, I find myself... It leads me to fulfilling my purpose?” “People are the most innovative when they're operating in their authentic voice... We shouldn't focus so much on innovation. We should focus on getting our people to their authentic selves, and the innovation will come out naturally.” About the Featured Guest Billie Schuttpelz is an Agile coach at Accenture who is known for her work on conquering Imposter Syndrome, something she has struggled with. A stage actor and advocate for therapy and visualization, Schuttpelz invented an alternate reality called “Oops Land” where people have the safety and permission to fail and also to be their authentic selves. This is in stark contrast to where she often feels she lives: in Perfect Island. Schuttpelz's personal development journey has helped her take back power over her own life, which has sometimes felt lacking purpose. She shares stories of her Imposter Syndrome workshops, as well as her process going through the Shine program fromTenWomenStrong, and the Organization and Relationship Systems Coaching (ORSC) program.

Sometimes we face teams where team members start, and then get used to making decisions on their own without involving the rest of the team, or communicating those decisions to their colleagues. In this team, the people were changing, and the new team members were not “given” the right to speak, which led to the oldest team members making all of the decisions on their own. Mher noticed that this was causing a motivation problem in the team, and started to work with the team to overcome this anti-pattern.  Featured Book of the Week: Scrum, the art of doing twice the work in half the time by Sutherland In Scrum, the art of doing twice the work in half the time by Sutherland, Mher found a book that was easy to read and understand, which reminded him of what Agile, Scrum, and Extreme Programming are all about.

We revived this episode because of its original popularity as well as because the content is incredibly relevant.   Listen in as Brandi and Leslie explore how to recognize burnout in ourselves as well as in our organization, how it's all about prioritization (whether proactive or reactive), and whether having grace within our team can prevent burnout in the first place. Join the conversation online with #WomenInAgile #SmallGoodThings About the Featured Guest Brandi Olson works at the intersection between learning, organizational agility, and human-centered design.

I have been out of pocket for the summer visiting family in India and taking some time off. I hope you are having a safe and fun summer. I am happy to be back in the saddle...In this latest episode, I chat with Jennifer Savage, a Scrum Master at FinThrive. Since Jennifer was a technical writer back in the day, she has some great nuggets to share on the parallels between the two roles, and how she continues to find value and advocate for us. Isn't that awesome? Well, here are some questions we delve into:What are the similarities between the two roles - tech writer and scrum master?What does the partnership between a tech writer and scrum master look like?How are writers embedded in the scrum process given they are a shared resource at your company? What are some ways for technical writers to find visibility on a scrum team when they are sidelined in the process?Why is the content that technical writers create important for you and the business?What are some pointers for writers to represent and advocate for themselves from a scrum master perspective?Guest BioIn Jennifer's own words...I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor of Journalism.  About the time I was entering the workforce, journalism jobs were few and far between as the print media was transitioning into the online space.  My first position out of college was as a newsletter editor/writer for a small publishing company.  From there I transitioned into other writing roles over years, from business writing to medical writing to entertainment writing, and ended up in a technical writer role at my current company.  I was brought into the company in its early days to create and publish all of the end-user documentation for their software offerings.  As a tech writer, I worked on a number of delivery teams using Agile methodologies, and after about 7 years, I moved into a Scrum Master role.  I am currently a Senior Scrum Master for several delivery teams at FinThrive, based in Plano.  While I enjoy my role as a Scrum Master, I have a soft spot for documentation and have always made sure they get a fair shake in our planning activities when completing product increments for our software updates.  I live in Frisco with my husband, my teenage son, and four cats. In my spare time, I volunteer with local animal welfare organizations and enjoy traveling with my family.  graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor of Journalism.  About the time I was entering the workforce, journalism jobs were few and far between as the print media was transitioning into the online space.  You can connect with Jennifer on LinkedIn.Audio Engineer - RJ Basilio 

AI is a part of our everyday life. What's The Risk LLC's Cindy Baxter gives ISACA's Kevin Keh examples of modern media like the movies Free Guy, Ron's Gone Wrong and The Matrix, and how they relate to AI-related risk factors, and they ask the questions, what is true? what is the data we are looking at? AI is about data accuracy and reputational risk, and Cindy discusses how to manage frameworks, create meaningful check points and intended outcomes six months or 2 years later that are spot on for what an organization intended. Cindy strongly believes that you always get a better outcome with diversity, because people from diverse backgrounds and life experiences create different ways to learn and produce innovative ideas and avoid rework.

All in all I have been lucky (and prepared) and have weathered a mild brush with this disease. My chest still feels like I was mugged, but every day I am getting better. The lack of self-awareness that I was getting sick until things were full-blown is fairly startling. It was more startling when I was re-reading Chapter 3 of Coaching Agile Teams by Lyssa Adkins (SPaMCAST Amazon affiliate line https://amzn.to/38G0ZD3 - buy a copy) again this week in preparation to write this essay.  Previous Installments Week 1: Logistics and Introduction - https://bit.ly/3A1aNTe  Week 2: Will I Be A Good Coach - https://bit.ly/3nzDAHg  Week 3: Expect High Performance - https://bit.ly/3Rl4fFf  Week 4: Master Yourself - https://bit.ly/3zL8t2n    Next SPaMCAST  We will map the attributes of flow explored in SPaMCAST 708 to a basic palette of flow metrics. This will complete the circle defining flow, establishing basic attributes, and then identifying how to measure flow through its attributes.  We will also have a visit from Susan Parente who will bring her Not A Scrumdamentalist column to the cast!

This week, Dan Neumann is joined by Christine Bush, a brand new Agile thinker.   In this episode, Dan and Christine are discussing Agile Transformations. As Lyssa Adkins describes, an Agile Coach is someone who has seen lots of different success and failure patterns over time. Change is never easy, and that is the reason why Dan And Christine are diving deep into the necessary features of a well-conducted Agile transformation.   Key Takeaways What is important when an organization is looking for an Agile Transformation? Transformations have to come from the top and leadership has to be committed to them. The leadership has to be ready to invest in education for the Team members of the organization and to guide them through the Transformation. Transformation cannot be an option. Middle-level managers are key to a successful Transformation, they need to be trained and guided in the process. What is next after the training is over? Agile Coaches are crucial in this stage since the application is a whole different story. Change can be scary. Let's experiment, instead of thinking about it in terms of winning or losing. Keep your eyes on the goal. Are some other roles instrumental when transitioning? There could be a lack of clarity on some roles at the beginning. All Team members are working together to deliver outcomes in short cycles with rapid feedback loops. The business stakeholders help with the requirements but sometimes they get confused by the new events.   “Don't just give them the title, buy them the tool, and expect the Agile process to work.”   Organizations want to be Agile but they don't give them the necessary coaching and facilitation that people need to be successful. Providing support is what enables Teams to become self-organizing and successful. Be patient; small victories can get a long way.   Mentioned in this Episode: “What is Agile Coaching?” by Lyssa Adkins Scrum: The Art of Doing Twice the Work in Half the Time, by Jeff Sutherland   Want to Learn More or Get in Touch?

The Great Product Owner: The PO that is also a team member Great Product Owners have the ability to make themselves part of the team. They put the team's success on their first priority by focusing on what the team needs to succeed. They also help the team collaborate with different sides of the organization.  The Bad Product Owner: Helping a “bossy” PO, learn how to collaborate with the Scrum team When the PO thinks they are “the boss”, they usually develop certain behaviors that push the team to just follow orders. Although this may seem logical for some PO's, the problems that arise will make the team uncomfortable, and ultimately conflict may arise between team and PO.  In this segment, we also talk about how to prepare a conversation with this kind of PO, helping the team come forward and share how they feel, and resolve the problem together with PO, and team. Are you having trouble helping the team work well with their Product Owner? We've put together a course to help you work on the collaboration team-product owner. You can find it at bit.ly/coachyourpo. 18 modules, 8+ hours of modules with tools and techniques that you can use to help teams and PO's collaborate.

When does a Scrum team not need their Scrum Master anymore? In this episode, we explore what that means in practice, and share some examples of the behaviors Scrum Masters can adopt to help their teams gain independence, and ownership of their work. Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: Avoiding Shame And Guilt In Retrospectives, with The Retrospective From The Future, Futurspective Miguel likes to help teams discuss the success of the sprint, starting from the beginning of the Sprint, instead of doing it at the end. Although this may seem counterintuitive, the looking forward retrospective helps Scrum Masters prepare the team to discuss some uncomfortable topics later on, by having them point those out before they happen, and before there's shame or guilt associated with those behaviors.  Do you wish you had decades of experience?

These days, we are so overwhelmed with everything ‘Agile' that it's easy to forget that not everyone is aware of all the terminology. Especially being an Agile Coach slash Scrum Master it's easy — through occupational deformation — to get a blind spot for your own bullshit bingo. The other day, I told someone to contact the Product Owner in order to get a User Story on the Backlog, so it could be refined during a refinement session, get pokered, and then picked up in a coming sprint. The vacant look and deadly silence on the other end of the screen made me realize my waterfall of Agile words was leaps and bounds too far for someone who has never interacted with an Agile team. So, what is ‘Agile' then? Libraries could be filled with books on Agile, but let me suffice with what Agile means to me in a nutshell: The idea behind an Agile way of working is an organization that is able — as a whole — to respond to all rapid changes organizations have to deal with these days — changes in the sales market, the technique, the labor market, the legislation, the societal changes, etc. You need an Agile mindset in the entire organization to get the best results — which entails: empowering people, working iteratively in as short as possible cycles, focusing on delivering as much value as possible in as short a time as possible, and embracing transparency. Whether you use the Agile framework of Scrum, or Kanban, or SAFe, or your own mix like Spotify does, the basics are the above. Because more and more organizations worldwide adopt an Agile way of working you see a widening taking place. Where at first there were mostly IT departments in IT-focused organizations that started ‘Scrumming', throughout the years a widening has been taking root to, for instance, sales and marketing departments. After the tech companies, other sorts of organizations also started experimenting with Agile, like construction companies, schools, and even healthcare organizations. Next to the widening, there has also been a deepening. Where Scrum Masters and Agile Coaches were at first often developers or testers that did the Agile stuff as a side job, we have seen a growth towards full-time coaching. Many achieve coaching diplomas and delve into related disciplines, like psychology. The coaching of teams and entire organizations usually has less to do with content than with the functioning of individuals in those teams and organizations. The dynamics of a team are mainly determined by the way of working together of the team members. Experienced Scrum Masters and Agile Coaches know that they benefit more from good coaching techniques than from profound knowledge of the ticketing system of the concerning organization. Through the widening and deepening, the Agile way of working keeps getting better and more robust. Already more than 20 years going strong and still not fully developed — Agile is not easy to do right, but the rewards in value for the organization and for the people is more than worth it. https://patrickheller.medium.com/agile-more-than-20-years-a-buzzword-55a3ee44cbe3

Miguel, and a team of coaches were working with an organization in an Agile transformation process. When discussing how to start helping the teams, and the organization in general, they came to the decision that they would start with knowledge sharing, and helping team members understand each other better. Through small, but deliberate activities, the team of coaches helped the teams take ownership of their own practices, and proposed concrete ways in which the teams could improve their way of working. Throughout this process, the team of coaches was able to help the organization, and the teams move towards Agile, without ever pushing “the Agile change”.   About Miguel Moro As an Agile practitioner, Miguel's passion is to delight customers using Agile practices and Lean methodologies in development teams, to explore the best alternatives to deliver in an iterative and incremental way, with a continuous value of flow, as fast as possible, and with innovative solutions.

Miguel started observing that the team members in this Scrum team were constantly trying to establish their own ideas as the “winning ideas”. The behaviors he observed helped Miguel understand that the team members were competing with each other, instead of focusing on the shared success for their team. In this episode, we discuss how to help our teams move from competition to collaboration, through a series of deliberate, but small tweaks to the discussion, and decision making processes in the team. Featured Book of The Week: The Principles of Product Development Flow: Second Generation Lean Product Development by Don Reinertsen In The Principles of Product Development Flow: Second Generation Lean Product Development by Don Reinertsen, Miguel found a helpful understanding of queues, which affect the progress/flow of work in our organizations. In that book, there are also insights into how variability affects productivity of knowledge work teams, and Reinertsen also gives us concrete ways to work through these concepts with the teams we help.  How can Angela (the Agile Coach) quickly build healthy relationships with the teams she's supposed to help?
