Send us a textIn this episode of the Customer Success Playbook Podcast, hosts Roman Trebon and Kevin Metzger interview Jasmine Reynolds, a Customer Success Manager at Pluralsight, about applying Scrum methodologies to customer onboarding. Jasmine discusses how Scrum, typically associated with software development, can significantly enhance the customer onboarding experience. She outlines six key Scrum techniques that can be immediately applied to onboarding processes, including prioritized backlog, sprint-based onboarding, daily stand-ups, and continuous feedback loops. The discussion highlights the benefits of this approach, such as improved time to value, increased customer satisfaction, and stronger client relationships. Detailed AnalysisThe application of Scrum to customer onboarding represents a significant innovation in customer success practices. This approach addresses several critical challenges in traditional onboarding processes:Flexibility and Adaptability: By breaking the onboarding journey into sprints, companies can respond more quickly to changing customer needs and feedback. This agility is crucial in today's fast-paced business environment where customer requirements can shift rapidly.Cross-Functional Collaboration: The Scrum approach encourages better coordination among various teams involved in onboarding, including sales, customer success, product, and support. This holistic approach ensures that all aspects of the customer's needs are addressed cohesively.Accelerated Time to Value: By focusing on delivering value in each sprint, businesses can ensure that customers start seeing benefits from their investment much earlier in the process. This rapid demonstration of value can significantly impact customer satisfaction and long-term retention.Enhanced Customer Communication: Daily stand-ups and regular feedback sessions keep the customer closely involved in the onboarding process. This transparency builds trust and allows for immediate course corrections if needed.Measurable Progress: The sprint structure provides clear milestones and measurable progress, making it easier to track the effectiveness of the onboarding process and identify areas for improvement.Scope Management: While scope creep remains a challenge, the sprint-based approach provides a framework for managing and prioritizing additional requests without derailing the entire onboarding process.Continuous Improvement: Regular retrospectives allow teams to refine their onboarding processes continuously, leading to ongoing improvements in efficiency and effectiveness.For businesses looking to implement this approach, Jasmine recommends starting by breaking existing onboarding processes into sprints, defining clear value deliverables for each sprint, and creating a prioritized backlog. She emphasizes the importance of flexibility and setting clear expectations with customers.The potential integration of AI tools in this Scrum-based onboarding process presents an exciting opportunity for further innovation. AI could potentially assist in sprint planning, predicting potential issuPlease Like, Comment, Share and Subscribe.

The key to successful self-serve BI lies in technical support for business stakeholders using flexible tools that cater to their needs efficiently. Providing technical people with tools like LLMs, Python, and easy data sharing capabilities can bridge the gap between technical complexity and business user needs.” 00:00 Intros 00:37 4 Weekly Meetings for Engineering Managers 01:59 Why Work to a Weekly Cadence? 03:30 Projects and Milestones 09:03 The Weekly Team Kick-off / Planning Meeting 20:06 Daily Sync (Standup) and Team Connection 33:21 One-on-One Meetings 37:16 Monthly Career Focus and Continuous Feedback and Coaching 38:11 One-to-One Frequency 40:15 Task Relevance Maturity Framework 41:35 The Weekly Review Meeting 46:04 Stakeholder Communication and Status Updates 58:02 Retrospectives and Team Health 01:03:23 Using AI for Coding Projects 01:12:14 Wrapping up!

Aujourd'hui, dans l'épisode 4/4 de la mini-série sur les cultures fortes de la Tech, j'ai le plaisir d'accueillir Nicholas Wagner, le Chief People Officer de 360 Learning. 360 Learning, c'est cette scaleup fondée en 2009 par Guillaume Alary-Raisonnier, Nick Hernandez et Sébastien Mignot qui s'est lancée à l'assaut de l'apprentissage collaboratif en entreprise. L'idée c'est de permettre à tout un chacun-e de créer du contenu et interagir avec, puis d'analyser les contenus qui gagneraient le plus à être optimisés grâce à une couche d'Intelligence Artificielle. Après une dernière levée de 200 millions en 2021 (Sumeru, Silver Lake Waterman, SoftBank, et les historiques dont BpiFrance, XAnge, ISAI, Educapital) deux ans après une levée de 40 millions pour se lancer à la conquête des US, 360 est présente en France, aux US et aux UK. Nicholas a commencé par 10 ans en grand groupe (Alsthom, Areva, Crédit Agricole…), dont deux ans au Vietnam, avant de passer 10 ans dans des sociétés en croissance. De 100 collaborateurs à l'arrivée de Nicholas en 2019, 360 est montée à 400 actuellement, en gardant une culture extrêmement particulière. Certains décrivent la culture 360Learning comme une culture “d'introvertis dans un monde d'extravertis” : elle est désignée en interne par le terme de “Convexity”

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2022.10.06.511117v1?rss=1 Authors: Hassall, C. D., Yan, Y., Hunt, L. T. Abstract: Feedback processing is commonly studied by analyzing the brain's response to discrete rather than continuous events. Such studies have led to the hypothesis that rapid phasic midbrain dopaminergic activity tracks reward prediction errors (RPEs), the effects of which are measurable at the scalp via electroencephalography (EEG). Although studies using continuous feedback are sparse, recent animal work suggests that moment-to-moment changes in reward are tracked by slowly ramping midbrain dopaminergic activity. Some have argued that these ramping signals index state values rather than RPEs. Our goal here was to develop an EEG measure of continuous feedback processing in humans, then test whether its behaviour could be accounted for by the RPE hypothesis. Participants completed a stimulus-response learning task in which a continuous reward cue gradually increased or decreased over time. A regression-based unmixing approach revealed EEG activity with a topography and timecourse consistent with the stimulus-preceding negativity (SPN), a scalp potential previously linked to reward anticipation and tonic dopamine release. Importantly, this reward-related activity depended on outcome expectancy: as predicted by the RPE hypothesis, activity for expected reward cues was reduced compared to unexpected reward cues. These results demonstrate the possibility of using human scalp-recorded potentials to track continuous feedback processing, and test candidate hypotheses of this activity.

Feedback shouldn't be delivered only when things go sideways. It also shouldn't be delivered only once a year during a performance review. When leaders effectively give continuous feedback, they build a culture of continual growth and development toward critical business strategy. Leaders can also build skills and optimize motivation when delivering consistent feedback to the people they are influencing toward common goals. In this episode of the Leadership Genius podcast, we take explore the concept of Continuous Feedback, through the recent eBook, The Leaders Formula for Turning Strategy Into Action, we wrote for Inspire Software. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jason-diamond-arnold/message

It's essential to address the void of interpersonal feedback that employees will start to feel, as they would now be isolated from fellow colleagues and working virtually.
Ein Team sollte lediglich so viele Personen beinhalten, dass alle von zwei Pizzen satt werden – so sagt es Jeff Bezos, CEO von Amazon, jedenfalls über die ideale Anzahl involvierter Personen in einem Meeting. Die direkte Konsequenz aus dieser Faustregel besteht aus gesteigerter Effizienz und lässt sich in der agilen Softwareentwicklung auf die Größe eines Teams übertragen. Durch die Möglichkeit, Entwicklerteams auf wenige, dafür aber wirksame Köpfe zu skalieren, werden Kommunikationswege kürzer und Verantwortungen gleichmäßig aufgeteilt. In Folge 53 geben wir Lösungsansätze zu üblichen Problemen in Skalierprozessen von Entwicklerteams. Wie kann man vermeiden, dass neue Mitarbeiter keinen Mehrwert bringen, ein Team zu schnell wächst oder Code und Kommunikation zu wünschen übrig lassen? Wir schildern unsere Erfahrungen in der Teamarbeit und erzählen, wie unser Weg hin zu einer agilen Arbeitsweise verlief, die von den größten Vorteilen von Scrum zehrt. Außerdem beschreiben wir, worauf wir bei Bewerbern und neuen Kollegen achten, wie ein umfangreiches Onboarding abläuft und wie wir unser Bestreben zu einer Clean-Code-Base umsetzen. Diese Folge hält auch den ein oder anderen Rat zur Weiterentwicklung der eigenen Fähigkeiten bereit und bietet Futter für Berufsneulinge, Teamplayer und Projektmanager!
