Marina Lazovic: Measuring Agile Team Success Through Stable Delivery Flow Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Marina reflects on how her understanding of Scrum Master success has evolved, noting that delivery optimization is an aspect she previously undervalued. For her, success means supporting teams to deliver in an optimal way with stable flow. She emphasizes that since software is built for users, delivery is the ultimate measure of value creation. Marina recommends discussing with teams what "delivery" actually means in their context and focusing on aspects within the team's control. She suggests using the "circle of influence" concept to define what constitutes delivery and to identify actionable improvement options during retrospectives. By concentrating on sprint-level delivery metrics, teams can establish a concrete definition of success that ties directly to value creation. Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: Lean Coffee Marina prefers keeping retrospectives simple and direct, recognizing that developers typically appreciate getting straight to the point. She particularly recommends the Lean Coffee format, which provides structure while allowing teams to focus on what matters most to them at that moment. What makes this format effective is its adaptability and efficiency. Marina emphasizes the importance of asking teams which retrospective formats they prefer rather than imposing a particular structure. To make retrospectives actionable, she insists on specifying WHO will do WHAT and by WHEN for every action item, ensuring clear accountability and follow-through on improvement initiatives. Self-reflection Question: How clearly defined is "delivery success" for your team, and what specific flow metrics could you introduce to make it more concrete? About Marina Lazovic Marina is a Scrum Master and Kanban Trainer from Belgrade, Serbia, with nearly a decade in the IT industry. Though not from a technical background, she is passionate about helping development teams and organizations optimize processes and build great products using Agile. She thrives on driving efficiency and fostering collaboration. You can link with Marina Lazovic on LinkedIn.
Season Hughes: How To Be A Data-Driven Scrum Master Or Agile Coach Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Season approaches Scrum Master success by regularly referring back to the Scrum Guide and measuring progress against its principles. She emphasizes the importance of collecting data and measuring key indicators like self-management, which she tests by occasionally stepping back from daily Scrum meetings to observe team autonomy. Season also stresses the value of one-on-one conversations to understand individual goals and assess team event effectiveness. Self-reflection Question: How do you measure the effectiveness of your role as a Scrum Master beyond just following ceremonies? Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: Lean Coffee Season recommends the Lean Coffee format for retrospectives as it puts control directly in the hands of participants who decide the discussion topics. This approach naturally increases engagement and ownership of the retrospective process. She emphasizes the importance of including warm-up activities to set the right mood and ensuring everyone speaks early in the session, while also following up on previous retrospective actions.

Mateusz Komander: Understanding Team Expectations - The Key to Scrum Master Success Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. For Mateusz, success as a Scrum Master starts with understanding team expectations. He emphasizes the importance of regularly asking teams "What do you expect from me as your Scrum Master?" The responses not only reveal the team's previous experiences with Scrum Masters but also indicate their maturity level and understanding of the role. By asking this question periodically, Mateusz can track the team's evolution and adapt his approach accordingly. Self-reflection Question: When was the last time you explicitly asked your team about their expectations of you as a Scrum Master, and how did their answers influence your approach? Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: Adapt to Your Team's Needs Mateusz learned through experience that consistently changing retrospective formats can create chaos for teams. He recommends finding a format that works well for your specific team and sticking with it. For some teams, this might be Lean Coffee, while others might benefit from simpler models like "What works well/not so well/needs improvement." The key is to experiment initially, gather feedback after each retrospective, and then settle on what works best for your team. [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]
Episode page It's Episode 50 of the Lean Whiskey podcast with Jamie Flinchbaugh and Mark Graban! tl;dr: Lean Whiskey will transition to a new brand Lean Coffee Talk, so stay tuned for more episodes from Mark and Jamie In their 50th and final episode of Lean Whiskey, hosts Mark and Jamie announce a significant transition, revealing that while this marks the end of “Lean Whiskey,” the podcast will continue under a new title called “Lean Coffee Talk.” The change is partially influenced by Jamie's lifestyle choices, which is reflected in their drink selections for this episode – both hosts opt for non-alcoholic spirit alternatives, with Jamie choosing Almave (co-founded by F1 legend Lewis Hamilton). Mark made a non-alcoholic Manhattan (with Bourbon alternative and a Sweet Vermouth substitute), but as he found it undrinkable, we'll spare you the brand name. The bulk of the episode focuses on the current state of the whiskey industry, which is experiencing its first significant downturn since 2002. Drawing from multiple sources, they discuss how the bourbon boom appears to be over, with distilleries facing waning demand and a supply glut. The situation is particularly stark in Kentucky, where 14.3 million barrels are aging at the start of 2024, representing approximately 2 billion bottles of whiskey. The hosts explore how this oversupply mirrors historical patterns, referencing the 1980s when 22 Scotch distilleries closed between 1980 and 1986 and bourbon sales plummeted 50 percent in the US. They also discuss how this situation exemplifies principles from The Beer Game, a famous MIT supply chain management simulation that Jamie has facilitated many times over 20 years (and Mark has played a few times). The episode concludes with details about the podcast's rebranding to “Lean Coffee Talk,” which will maintain the casual, conversational format while using a loose version of the Lean Coffee structure that has been part of many Lean Whiskey episodes. The new format pays homage to both the Lean Coffee methodology and the classic radio program “Car Talk,” with the hosts emphasizing that while the name and logo will change, the podcast will continue in the same feed, ensuring continuity for their listeners. Cheers!

Gosia Smoleńska: Lean Coffee As A Simple and Effective Retrospective Format For Teams Under Pressure Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Success for Gosia as a Scrum Master is defined by her team's self-sufficiency. True success is evident when the team operates smoothly without her constant presence, handles conflicts independently, and confidently runs their own meetings. When team members shift from bringing complaints to proposing solutions and only seek occasional feedback, it indicates a mature, autonomous group. We also discuss what behaviors to look out for as a Scrum Master, to ensure that the team is proceeding towards self-sufficiency. Self-reflection Question: How do you measure the level of autonomy within your team and encourage them to become more self-reliant? Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: Lean Coffee Gosia recommends Lean Coffee as a favorite retrospective format due to its simplicity and relaxed structure. This format's timeboxed, formulaic approach allows discussions to flow naturally without the pressure to cover every topic. It's particularly effective for fast-paced environments where teams need structured, yet laid-back, sessions to share their thoughts. [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

We've all heard those stories of resistance to change within organisations but how do you handle them when they come your way? Today I'm chatting with change management consultant and founder of Casa de Cambio, Natasha Redmond, who has a wealth of experience in navigating the turbulent seas of change within some of Australia's largest companies. In this episode, we explore strategies to better understand stakeholders, enhance change communication, build change capability, and address resistance at the root cause. Whether you're in the midst of a change initiative or want to prepare for future challenges, this episode is a goldmine of insights and practical tips. Change management can be a rollercoaster ride, and sometimes the reactions to it can be downright baffling. Natasha shares some of her craziest experiences, including a particularly intense encounter with a resistant team. Natasha emphasises that people rarely resist change for no reason, so it's crucial to delve deeper and understand what's truly driving their resistance.It's easy to label people as resistant but Natasha argues that this is overly simplistic and shifts the focus away from the role of change managers and leaders in creating a conducive environment for change. Instead, she encourages change practitioners to look inward, reflect on their approach, and consider whether they've missed crucial steps in the change process.One key strategy Natasha emphasises is the importance of understanding stakeholders and involving them in the change process. Building relationships, capturing requirements, and co-designing solutions can make a significant difference. This is where communication also plays a pivotal role. We talk about not relying solely on emails for communication and the importance of diverse communication formats, such as face-to-face meetings, FAQs, town halls, and Lean Coffee sessions. The goal is to provide information in multiple ways, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to absorb and ask questions about the change.While building change capability within an organisation is important, change fatigue can occur when employees are bombarded with continuous changes, leading to resistance. Therefore, it's essential to strike a balance between building capability and making hard decisions about which changes are truly critical. We also talk about the role of leadership and how to navigate a situation where even senior leaders are resistant to change. Natasha shares an example of how she dealt with this exact scenario and the importance of setting clear expectations early in the change process. Natasha shares so many practical tips and insightful lessons on the complexities of change within organisations and I know you're going to get so much value from this conversation.

Man kann es wohl als besondere Herausforderung bezeichnen, Product Owner im Konzern zu sein. Die Frage ist dann immer, wie viel Produktverantwortung habe ich überhaupt oder anders gesagt: mit wie vielen anderen Menschen muss ich mir diese Verantwortung teilen? Tim hat heute Daniel Dubbel von der DB Systel zu Gast, um dieses diese Fragestellungen zu besprechen. Daniel ist langjähriger und erfahrener Agile Coach bei der DB Systel, dem internen IT-Unternehmen im DB Konzern. Daniel ist dort eine Führungskraft und in der Rolle als Agility Master aktiv an der Organisationsentwicklung des Unternehmens beteiligt. Im Rahmen dieser Verantwortung hat er die DB Systel auch im sogenannten DACH30 Netzwerk vertreten, einem Zusammenschluss von 30 Konzernunternehmen aus Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz, die sich seit einigen Jahren viermal im Jahr regelmäßig treffen, um über Agilität in solch großen Unternehmen zu diskutieren. In diesem Zuge wurden auch Diskussionen zu agilen Rollen im Konzern geführt und in sogenannte "Mindeststandards für Unternehmensagilität" entwickelt. Da es hierbei natürlich auch um die Product Owner Verantwortlichkeit ging, fanden wir es besonders spannend, Daniel Dubbel als Gast für diese Folge einzuladen und mit ihm darüber zu sprechen, was für Product Owner im Konzern vielleicht besonders oder anders ist. Aber auch bzgl. DACH30 wollte Tim wissen: Was war die Motivation, solche expliziten Rollenbeschreibungen für Konzernagilität zu definieren? Und inwiefern unterscheidet sich die Product Owner Rolle, die in diesen Mindeststandards als "Value-Verantwortlicher" beschrieben wird, vom Product Owner, wie er im Scrum Guide definiert wird? Einen spannenden Ausflug machen die beiden auch noch zur Fragestellung, wie Kunden und Nutzer im Konzernumfeld eingebunden werden können. Am Ende des Gesprächs gibt Daniel Dubbel auch noch seine ganz persönlichen Tipps für Product Owner im Konzern. Tim verweist im Gespräch u.a. auf das "Lean Coffee für Agilität in Versicherungen", einer freiwilligen, ehrenamtlichen Netzwerk-Initiative, von Mitarbeitenden aus Versicherungsunternehmen. Alle sechs Wochen treffen sich hier Angestellte aus Unternehmen der Versicherungsbranche in einem selbstorganisierten, geschützten Raum. Wer festangestellt in einem Versicherungsunternehmen arbeitet, kann sich in der LinkedIn-Gruppe anmelden und bekommt dort dann die Einladungen mit. Achtung: Berater und Vertriebler werden explizit nicht in die Gruppe aufgenommen! Hier der Link zur Gruppe "Lean Coffee Agilität in Versicherungen" (linkedin.com/groups/12715252/). Die "Mindeststandards für Unternehmensagilität" von 30 börsennotierten Großunternehmen aus Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz sowie drei deutschen Beratungsunternehmen sind in folgendem Artikel von Daniel Dubbel sehr gut dokumentiert: https://www.inspectandadapt.de/agile-rollen-kompetenzen/. Infos über das DACH30-Netzwerk gibt es unter dach30.net im Netz. Frühere Episoden unseres Podcasts passen gut zur aktuellen Folge: - Product Ownership im Konzernumfeld mit Felix Stein - Customer Journey Management im Konzern - ein Erfahrungsbericht mit Martin Sallge Wer weitere Fragen an Daniel Dubbel hat oder mit ihm in Kontakt treten möchte, erreicht ihn am Besten über sein LinkedIn-Profil oder über seine Webseite inspectandadapt.de. Welche Erfahrungen hast Du als Product Owner im Konzern bislang gesammelt? Wie lässt sich die Product Owner Verantwortung im Konzernumfeld leben?

Lorraine Chambers: How To Design Your Coaching Plan, And Progress Towards Successful Scrum Mastery Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. In this episode, we explore what success means for Scrum Masters and Lorraine's perspective. Lorraine suggests that success starts when both the team and customers are genuinely content and motivated. Key indicators include the team independently addressing anti-patterns, initiating discussions about their work, and requiring less assistance with basic tasks. Lorraine emphasizes the importance of a defined coaching plan (see the Agile Coaching Growth Wheel) and personal accountability. Conducting quarterly team health surveys provides concrete feedback for self-improvement, enabling Lorraine to track progress and address areas for growth effectively. Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: From Lean Coffee To The Simple DAKI Framework, Retrospectives For All Teams When it comes to retrospective formats, for mature teams, Lorraine favors the Lean Coffee approach, providing an informal setting where participants shape the agenda in real-time. This allows for open discussions on chosen topics within time constraints. Lorraine highlights how Lean Coffee often uncovers diverse team concerns. For less mature teams, she leans towards the Drop/Add/Keep/Improve framework (DAKI retrospective), emphasizing continuous improvement. She suggests that we use the "Improve" to inspire improvements that we keep an eye on during the Sprint. With remote teams, she utilizes MURAL's private mode for collaborative sticky-note sessions.

Malcolm Colman-Shearer's needs weren't being met in his banking IT job in New Zealand, so he left to find an environment that was more socially oriented where relationships were important. Jumping from the safety and confinement of that corporate ship, he's now leading the life of an entrepreneur. He's a member of Enspiral, a worldwide collective of individuals who not only believe in, but practice, a new way of organizing; and is the founder of Optimi, where he really follows his meaning and purpose by assisting clients in optimizing their workflow. I respect his transparency and insights about the ups of downs of his journey with decentralized organizations. I love his optimism about how our current network experiments are raising consciousness about new ways to organize that will evolve to further empower people. Malcolm contrasts traditional environments vs collective networks using a rainforest vs corn field analogy. After we recorded this episode, I was in the Peruvian Amazon and had daily walks through its rainforest, observing its many micro-ecosystems. Malcolm's analogy of an organizational network having the growth and death cycles of a rainforest resonates with me even more now that I've experienced the magic of the Peruvian rainforest.

“A highly functional team defines the right environment and has what they need to be the best professionals they can be. And that always includes agency and psychological safety." Jim Benson is the co-author of “Personal Kanban” and is currently working on his upcoming book “The Collaboration Equation”. In this episode, we started by discussing Personal Kanban, how it differs from a to-do list, and its two main rules, i.e. visualizing our work and limiting our work-in-progress. Jim also shared practical tips on managing our personal backlog, doing prioritization, and limiting our work in progress. In the latter half of our conversation, we discussed Jim's new book, “The Collaboration Equation”, starting with the discussion about the common collaboration challenges and why professionalism and psychological safety are prerequisites to building high-performing teams. Jim also explained the concept of collaborative leadership and gave practical tips on how we can measure effective collaboration.

This interview was originally recorded in video. You can find the video here: https://youtu.be/FGCiOhXYqwM In April 2014, Derek Huether started leading a monthly Lean Coffee meeting for Agile Baltimore. Early in 2022, the group will hold its 100th Lean Coffee! In celebration of that, Derek joined me for an interview all about Lean Coffee - what is it, how does it work, how to get set up to run one, and what are the benefits of leading a Lean Coffee. If you aren't familiar with Lean Coffee it is an agenda-less meeting format developed by Jim Benson and Jeremy Lightsmith that relies on the people who show up to collaborate on the agenda and then cover them together. Even if you are a seasoned Lean Coffee veteran you will probably find valuable ideas here. Both Derek and I came away from this conversation with new things to try out. Also, at the end of the podcast, there is an additional brief conversation about Jira. Derek works for Atlassian and he shares a number of resources that you and your team can use to get answers to all your Jira questions. 1:00 Who is Derek Huether 2:10 What is a Lean Coffee 10:00 What do YOU get out of running a Lean Coffee 13:00 How does a Lean Coffee work 27:45 Using it to run meetings 35:15 How to Contact Derek 35:45 How to get Jira help Links from the podcast Agile Baltimore http://www.agilebaltimore.org Lean Coffee Website https://leancoffee.org Metrics Cookbook by Derek Huether https://amzn.to/3F3ragX How to Have Great Meetings: A Lean Coffee Book by Adam Yuret https://amzn.to/33glCme Lean Coffee Table (App to run Lean Coffee Meetings) https://www.leancoffeetable.com Jira videos on YouTube: https://bit.ly/JiraVideos Atlassian Community Site: https://community.atlassian.com Atlassian University: https://www.atlassian.com/university Contacting Derek Web: https://www.derekhuether.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/derekhuether/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/derekhuether Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/derekhuether/

Dave, Mark and Mike discuss their best bits from the DevOps Enterprise Summit 2021 with IT Revolution. They also review their talk on the Serverless Value Flywheel. The DOES 2021 talks are practical with participants describing their digital transformation journeys in an open way, revealing the lessons they have learned. Here are quick links to themes, tools and techniques that the guys covered in their talk on the Value Flywheel and picked up in other talks and discussions: https://learnwardleymapping.com https://doctrine.wardleymaps.com https://medium.com/wardleymaps https://list.wardleymaps.com https://github.com/ddd-crew/ddd-starter-modelling-process… https://amplitude.com/north-star Our Talk: 'The Serverless Edge, Using Wardley Mapping with the Value Flywheel from combined Business and Technology Evolution' Transcript: https://www.theserverlessedge.com/wardley-mapping-with-the-value-flywheel/ Slides: (including ours under Dave Anderson): https://github.com/devopsenterprise/2021-virtual-us Slack: https://devopsenterprise.slack.com/ New Book announcement https://itrevolution.com/announcing-new-book-from-david-anderson/ The conference was virtual but there were still many opportunities to interact through the Slack Channel and Lean Coffees with leaders and architects from leading edge organisations. Dave and Mark also give a behind the scenes view of their talk: The Serverless Edge, Using Wardley Mapping with the value Flywheel from combined Business and Technology Evolution which previewed their book due to publish next year with IT Revolution: https://itrevolution.com/announcing-new-book-from-david-anderson/ In their talk they explained what a 'value flywheel' is and they did a live demo of a Wardley Map to show the technique in action. There are 4 stages of the 'value flywheel': 1. Clarity of Purpose 2. Challenge 3. Next Best Action 4. Long Term Value The transcript for talk is available on: https://www.theserverlessedge.com/wardley-mapping-with-the-value-flywheel/ Dave and Mark hosted a Lean Coffee on 'Building internal capability, not consultancy dependency', which prompted a good debate. Mike also picked up on themes around value streams and flow efficiency with Mik Kersten from Tasktop - tasktop.com, and similarly with Bank of New Zealand - bnz.co.nz. The guys felt that Wardley Mapping is very complimentary to those themes and is rising in popularity. Mark picked up on an increasing evolution towards product centricity, meaningful work and socio technical practice. Mike attended a session looking at ubiquitous language tying in with the need for visibility/observability to make decisions in DevOps organisations which Mark also picked up on in the talk on 'shifting left with product excellence' with Liz Fong-Jones with metrics being used in right way being key. Mike also picked up a lot of SRE themed talks including one by Michael Winslow from Comcast. Courtney Nash from Verica and Troy Koss from Capital One did a 'Chaos and Reliability: A Surprising Friendship in the Enterprise' talk that Mark enjoyed. And Dave picked up on a talk by Dr. Ron Westrum. Mike felt that Team Topologies concepts were permeating the talks and thinking at the conference. Dave enjoyed the talk with Admiral John Richardson and the ultimate distributed organisation, leadership and autonomous themes. Security was covered by John Wallace looking at how that area has changed. The guys picked up on the lack of serverless talks, although that could be about the organisational journey. Also the conference wasn't really about specific technologies. Tune in next time for more conversation on all things Serverless Craic.

However, there's a lot more than process that we should take into account. In this segment, we also discuss the importance of adapting our definition of success to the company we are working with. Featured Retrospective for the Week: The difference an icebreaker makes When we start a retrospective, we have the challenge to get the team's attention and focus.

Tanzil's definition of success has evolved over time, and revolves around assessing and acting on the idea that companies and teams should be moving “forward” continuously in their Agile journey. We dive into some of the questions that Tanzil asks to assess if the teams are able to learn and advance in their journey. We also introduce the concept of “cultural hangover”, which Tanzil uses to describe one of the problems he wants to remove in the teams he works with. Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: A fresh new look at the Sailboat Retrospective Tanzil's retrospective format of choice is the Sailboat retrospective (featured often here on the podcast), but he uses that in a specific way. For Tanzil, the Sailboat retrospective can be a great Futurespective, focusing the team on the future to define their vision.

We've all been there....stuck in a meeting where the agenda is boring and isn't discussing what we should REALLY be talking about... Well, good news! We got the fix with Lean Coffee!
Show notes: https://www.leanblog.org/whiskey29 In Episode 29, it's been a little while since Mark and Jamie got together for Lean Whiskey. We catch up on what's new, which includes Mark's new certification with distinction with the WSET Level 2 Spirits certification, and Jamie's new side-hustle as a soccer referee. We return to making cocktails, this time building on our coffee theme from the pour-over edition of Episode 27. We both make coffee cocktails. Jamie's is a whiskey espresso martini, equal parts bourbon, Kahlua, and freshly pulled espresso, shaken and served in a martini glass. Mark worked his way towards his own concoction, based on the Revolver cocktail, using bourbon and coffee liqueur, but he used a couple Texas-based brands and named it the Texas Revolver. We both follow our cocktails with some Glenn's Creek Cafe Ole and discuss Mark's lost barrel of bourbon. We did "In the News" with a twist, building on our coffee theme we used something close to the Lean Coffee format and covered many news stories for 5 minutes each. These stories covered Starbucks as a talent pool, CEO pay and diversity, wage inflation, what work really needs to be in-person, people leaving the restaurant industry, and using lean to help get jabs in arms. There was no theme here, just two guys sitting around talking about the news from a lean thinker's perspective. Scroll down for links galore. After covering a lot of ground, Mark and Jamie look forward to the fall, including football. We hope you enjoy this episode. Please send Mark or Jamie questions, suggestions, or comments for our future discussions. Until next time, cheers!

https://www.leanblog.org/whiskey27 In Episode 27, Mark and Jamie switch things up a bit with a morning recording of the show. While we could have just started our whiskey early, instead we decided to switch to a beverage that shares much of the same culture, craft, and appreciation as whiskey, and that is coffee. Although a bit of throwback in terms of usages, the trend towards pour over coffee embraces the culture of single origin coffee, much like the shift from whiskey blends towards more single casks. The pour over method is meant to extract more of the “good stuff” and less of the “bad stuff” from freshly ground coffee beans. So Mark and I poured our coffee and got into our topics of the day. You can see our coffee selections and equipment setups in the links below. We didn't want to lose the whiskey theme, so we used an article exploring whether 10 million barrels of whiskey resting, or aging, in Kentucky is a good thing or a bad thing. This became a launchpad to talk about whether just-in-time is dead (as the Wall Street Journal likes to claim) or just misunderstood. We explore MIT's The Beer Game, system dynamics, supply chain design, decision making, and the glut of face masks and hand sanitizer. We could have likely talked about this topic for a very long time, and had we been into a glass of whiskey, perhaps we would have. In addition to a little detour into Mark's many hats, including the reason he wears two different hats in one episode, we close on a personal note of how we both like to start our day: with coffee, reading news, and a view. Jamie's coffee, Death Wish, and Mark's coffee, Yellow Caturra Jamie's KitchenAid grinder, Chemex pour over, and kettle Mark's different KitchenAid grinder, Bodum pour over, and electric kettle 10 Million bourbon barrels resting – too much or not enough? The Wall Street Journey's misinformed piece on JIT, Jeff Liker on JIT, Dr. Jonathan Byrnes on supply chain shockwaves, and Dr. Byrnes as a guest Mark's LeanBlog podcast MIT's The Beer Game, system dynamics and accumulators and delays, and supply and demand Mark's hat and Jamie's morning view

Fizemos um crossover com o podcast Conversa Ágil, num formato de Lean Coffee com 3 assuntos bacanudos: O Ágil Morreu? Times de alta performance existem? Ágil em momentos de crise. Confere com a gente mais esse papo sobre agilidade!
It all started with a tweet by John Cutler "Wonder how many BBD / DDD enthusiasts are aware of the body of similar work in #ux research and vica versa". And it seemed that a lot of people from these communities learned a lot from each other. And we would love to learn more about different areas of overlap. It seems like goals and culture are aligned in both communities. Join us in our second Virtual Lean Coffee, where a panel of around 15 people from the UX, DDD and BDD community will exchange topics that overlap with each community. The great thing is, you can participate because we are making the Lean Coffee a fishbowl! Join zoom and join us live in the discussion, or just sit back and enjoy the stream from youtube and ask questions in the chat! Hope to see you there!
Joe Krebs speaks with Jim Benson about Personal Kanban and Lean Coffee, things Jim created which we use in the agile community on a daily basis. We talk about the importance of collaboration in Personal Kanban and how much of an impact multi-tasking, silo conversation as well professionalism has on the quality of work.

Hello from Cape Town in South Africa. This episode is an interview with Rebecca Tara. Rebecca is Scrum Master and Legal Adviser at the Accelerator „Afro Labs“. „I think that really agile can be applied in various differnt environments” Rebecca says in the interview. Yes, she is absolutly right! And that‘s why we talk in this episode about the role of agile in the legal industry. Legal is every where around us. We do not necessarily like it all the time but it is important to have the right circumstances setup for agile working models. Rebecca and me are answering in this episode 1) WHAT DO AGILE & LEGAL HAVE in COMMON? 2) WHAT DOES AGILE FOR THE LEGAL INDUSTRY MEAN? 3) HOW TO GET STARTED WITH LEGAL IN THE AGILE WORLD? 4) WHAT IS LEAN COFFEE FOR LAWYERS? Rebecca tells us about the challenges in the legal world when it comes to agile working models. She gives interesting insights how she started working with agile working models in the legal industry. Moreover you will learn about the very interesting meeting format of „Lean Coffee“ which Rebecca uses as a regular (agile) meeting for lawyers. All in all this episode shows a new perspective on the though topics of law and legal duties in an agile working environment.

In order to assess her success as a Scrum Master, Moana likes to look at the team members’ ability and willingness to take on the responsibility for learning and adapting to the challenges they face. But there are other signs like the team taking responsibility for preparing and hosting their own retrospectives. Finally, we talk about the idea of “swarming” and how teams that implement that approach ends up achieving more. In this episode, we talk about the 3-amigo sessions, team health-checks and their role for Scrum Masters, a technique called Satisfactogram, and the “pats-on-back” technique, which is similar to the Kudos Box from Management 3.0. Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: Lean Coffee Lean Coffee, a format we referred to in several other episodes, is a good format to help teams explore what is critical for them at that time. Moana describes how this format is a safe format for team members to approach topics that may seem untouchable when using other conversations and retrospective formats. We should also note, that the Lean Coffee format is also very good at helping to discuss the “edge” topics, that could easily be forgotten otherwise. About Moana Pledger Mo started her career in education and program management before moving into digital delivery. She's pretty sure she was a servant-leader before she had even heard the term. Her passion is to build healthy teams and foster the all-important relationship between business and team, which allows a safe space for the magic to happen.

When Moana was asked to help this organization, she found a common anti-pattern: the teams had reverted back to Waterfall after their previous Agile Coach left. This is a very common pattern, and we must learn how to deal with it. In this episode, we explore the context of that organization and also learn about the techniques that Moana employed to help that organization get back on the Agile adoption path. In this episode, we refer to Lean Coffee, a technique you can use to help teams talk and open up about their situation.

Ich habe mich in letzter Zeit gefragt: Marcus, wie kannst du deine Meetings lockerer und effizienter gestalten? Auf einem KANBAN Seminar habe ich im Zuge des Workshops die agile Methode „Lean Coffee“ kennengelernt und bin von dieser sehr begeistert. Nicht nur, dass obere Fragestellung damit beantwortet wird. Nein, auch der Aufwand in der Vorbereitung reduziert sich enorm.
Insights from two days of Personal Kanban training w/ Amitai Schleier A few weeks ago, I had the great pleasure of taking a class put on by Modus Cooperandi called “Individual, Team, & Project Success: Personal Kanban" with Jim Benson and Tonianne DeMaria, authors of the book Personal Kanban. Even though personal kanban is a system I am very familiar with, I was psyched to be able to take the class because I was confident that spending two days with Jim and Toni was going to have a deep impact. One surprise benefit was that I finally got a chance to meet Amitai Schleier in person. Both Amitai and I had a lot of valuable takeaways from the class. In this episode of The Reluctant Agilist, we share what we learned from our time with Jim and Toni and some of the challenges each of us face day-to-day in dealing with limiting our WIP and managing flow. Both of us highly recommend taking any training you can with Jim and Tonianne. They are brilliant and come from diverse backgrounds, which is part of what makes their classes so insightful.

On this week's episode of TorontoTechTalks, we discuss the importance of a roadmap, coaching at the right level and a lot more in a lean coffee discussion with Rena Fitzgerald
Diskussionen verlaufen in Gruppen oft etwas unglücklich: die besten Argumente sind schon nach wenigen Minuten ausgetauscht. Dennoch geht die Diskussion immer weiter und weiter. Immer mehr der ursprünglichen Teilnehmer ziehen sich zurück und sind zunehmend gelangweilt oder gar genervt. Schließlich endet es in einem Streitgespräch zwischen zwei oder drei Personen, welches mit dem Ende der Sitzungszeit abgebrochen und nicht beendet wird. Mit Lean Coffee kannst du verhindern, dass die Diskussionen ungebremst einfach so dahinlaufen und unreflektiert sämtliche Zeit in Besprechungen verbrauchen.

Jim Benson has been involved with Agile since the very beginning. You may know him as creator of Personal Kanban, as the co-creator of Lean Coffee, through his work as CEO of Modus Cooperandi, his books, or from the many awards he’s won for his work in applying Lean practices to knowledge work. After years watching Agile being misused, misunderstood, and seeing it “calcify and solidify because of commercialization”, Jim’s new project The Agile Heretic is focused on calling attention to many of the things people are doing that are causing Agile to not work. In the videos and blog posts, Jim takes on a wide range of Agile related topics, he explores why things are off the rails and how to address them. In this interview Jim and I talk through what led to him creating this series, his hopes for it and what he is looking forward to seeing in the future of Agile. We also touch on some specific topics (like why he doesn’t like Story Points) and he shares a bunch of great stories (like why a group of developers once passed the hat amongst themselves and smuggled him into their company after their organization deemed his ideas too dangerous to their way of working. Note: During the podcast, Jim makes multiple references to the Kuhn Cycle, You can find some basic info on it here: Kuhn Cycle: http://www.thwink.org/sustain/glossary/KuhnCycle.htm Agile Heretic Links - here are two places to get started: YouTube: YouTube https://youtu.be/CmfZvdGWKv4 Medium: https://medium.com/@ourfounder/the-agile-heretic-an-introduction-29992e52052c Jim at Agile 2018 Jim will be leading a Stalwarts session at Agile 2018 called “Ask the Agile Heretic Almost Anything” You can find more about that here: https://agile2018.sched.com/event/EUEU/ask-the-agile-heretic-almost-anything-jim-benson-jim-benson For more in Jim and his work: Modus Cooperandi http://moduscooperandi.com Jim on Twitter https://twitter.com/ourfounder Jim’s books on Amazon: https://amzn.to/2LWuhx1 Personal Kanban http://personalkanban.com/pk/ Lean Coffee http://leancoffee.org

Fresh off the episode about Dot Voting (1x03), Chuck compares two popular meeting facilitation techniques in agile: lean coffee and open space. Lean Coffee is well suited for a small group of participants, who use a Kanban backlog and dot voting to work through a list of discussion topics. Open space has similar goals, but uses a marketplace of ideas and runs multiple conversations in parallel. Open space is a better fit for large groups.

The Startup Gizmo Podcast: Entrepreneurship | Innovation | Lean Startup | Growth Hacking
In this episode, I am sitting down with Luke Szyrmer, an experienced product manager from London, to discuss his new book, Launch Tomorrow. Alex Makarski: Hello and welcome. This is Alex Makarski with another episode of StartupGizmo. And today, I have with me Luke Szyrmer hanging out with me from London on the opposite end of the pond, but he's sporting a nice shirt that says University of Pennsylvania, I take it. So I guess there's a story coming up. Luke is a sought after authority in all things lean and startup and is the one who runs Lean Coffee events in London. And he is an author of Launch Tomorrow, the book on launching a startup, a tech startup, I presume, that hit number one on Amazon in its category recently. So, congratulations on the book, Luke, and welcome to the show. Luke Szyrmer: Thanks, Alex. Yeah, it's great to catch up with you. Alex Makarski: Awesome. So what's up with this Pennsylvania theme going on here? Luke Szyrmer: Well, I grew up in the area. But I went there a while ago and graduated. And it was a good time and it taught me quite a lot, did economics there a long time ago. But somehow I got into IT and it stuck on me for 20 years or more at this point in various forms. Alex Makarski: Right. So what led you to writing a book? Luke Szyrmer: So the main reason is that I, at some point, tried to create a product that I thought would be relevant for hedge funds here in London. It was about the time YouTube was becoming a thing and it was a video website, and aimed specifically at that vertical, which at the time I thought was a great idea and I put a lot of heart and soul and savings into it. And after basically launching it, it turned out that they weren't really all that interested and it didn't resonate with them pretty much at all. And I realized that even though I, from a technical standpoint, had something that was working, that clearly wasn't enough that I very much had a marketing problem. And at some point, about two or three years later, I discovered the work of Eric Ries – The Lean Startup – and one of the things that he advocates there is going out and speaking with customers, interacting with them long before you even started building some sort of product just to be able to really understand who it is that you're creating something for. And over time, the part that I found the most interesting was something that he briefly described in The Lean Startup over a couple of pages, it's using a landing page to test out a product idea. So, it's kind of like a smoke test. Originally, the term “smoke test” comes from electrical engineering. So basically, if you plug it in, does smoke come out of it? So, here, it's a slightly different connotation. So, basically, it's just a quick test to make sure that if you are going to go in a certain direction, from a marketing point of view, there is actually somebody who's there, who's waiting for that product to be made. Alex Makarski: If it's even worth putting any more effort into it. Luke Szyrmer: Exactly. Exactly, that's the whole point. And it's a slightly different way of approaching the whole topic than, on one hand, customer development, which I just mentioned because there you're trying to get lots of information and speak with lots of people. And it's also a different kind of conversion rate optimization where you already have something that you're selling and you just want to be able to sell better. And that mentality, that framework, other than that sliver within The Lean Startup and occasionally mentioned here and there, nobody is really covering it, and I realize that it's something worth testing on its own. So what I did was I went to cycle Leanpub which essentially led me start writing a book, basically describe a book, without necessarily having it done yet and to see if people would start buying. And lo and behold, people did start paying me even though it wasn't done.
Recorded at Sharon Bowman's two-day Training from the Back of the Room (TBR) workshop in Orlando, FL, this episode features nine voices.

[featured-image single_newwindow=”false”] Hosts Ryan Ripley, Aaron Griffith Discussion Aaron Griffith (@aaron_griffith) is a member of the Hunter #mobprogramming team, agile speaker, and #NoEstimates enthusiast. He joined Ryan Ripley (@ryanripley) to talk about agile in a galaxy far far away, agile coach camp (#accus) experiences, and a bonus topic from the Agile Coaching Cards Lean Coffee volume 1 deck. We started with Aaron's talk about agile and Star Wars. During this talk, Aaron compares and contrast the Republic and the Galactic Empire to an agile team. Using movie quotes and scenes he brings to life agile concepts and practices in ways that newcomers to agile can relate with and understand. He's received great feedback on this talk and will be giving it again at Agile Testing Days in Potsdam, Germany – November 9th-12th. We then moved on to our time at Agile Coach Camp 2015. We were both able to attend some interesting sessions. Ryan shared his experiences discussing the business side of agile and telling stories with Woody Zuill. Aaron explained insights learned in #MobProgramming sessions and gave his overall thoughts on his first visit to a coach camp. Finally, we wrapped up by doing a quick Lean Coffee session using Victor Bonacci's (@agilecoffee) new agile coaching cards deck. We pulled the “Dealing with bullies, naysayers, and other bad apples” card and shared stories and insights from past experiences with difficult agile team members. And then…we called it a night.

Hosts Ryan Ripley, Zach Bonaker, Amitai Schlair Discussion It's a miracle that this episode happened. Zach Bonaker (@zachbonaker) got lost in an English bog, Amitai Schlair (@schmonz) was wandering in Guatemala and Ryan Ripley (@ryanripley) was nearly sucked in to the power fueled DC world, but the three managed to come together to ponder some questions about coaching agile teams. WHEN DOES AN AGILE TEAM NEED COACHING? We started with defining coaching, then mentoring, and finally consulting. And ultimately came upon an important insight. If the team knows how to learn together and has a high level of skill in conducting retrospectives, they likely need little coaching. However, such stars rarely align. We discussed if the team should choose when a coach is needed, and managements role in the process. We then moved on to our next question: WHEN SHOULD AN AGILE COACH LEAVE? When the checks start to bounce, of course! This is another difficult situation to handle. It takes a great amount of awareness to realize that the team can find success without you (the coach). Watching the teams behaviors, the systems they are working within, and the response they have to the coach are all important considerations. On the other hand, we did discuss that in professional sports, the coach never leaves. Even LeBron James has a coach. The conversation then pivoted in to agile transformations. At the heart our discussion was the idea of influence vs coercion and how coercion can tank an agile transformation quickly. The tendency to hold on the old practices, even harmful ones, is hard to break as teams new to agile often struggle to embrace self-organization. Trust was also a key theme throughout. Amitai was kind enough to share episode 8 (care) of his podcast: Agile in 3 Minutes. He creates art each week by focusing on one agile idea each week. Insightful and poetic, Agile in 3 Minutes is clearly a labor of love that I'm grateful to enjoy each week. I hope you give Agile in 3 Minutes a listen and subscribe via rss here. Finally, Zach told us about Victor Bonacci's recent Kickstarter project: Agile Coaching Cards. Vic was a recent guest on Agile for Humans and taught us how to play Lean Coffee. He's now selling a deck of cards on Kickstarter designed to help teams get up to speed quickly with Lean Coffee discussion. This is a fun tool that can help teams facilitate conversations about agile topics. And then…we called it a night.

Lean Coffee recorded in Seattle, June 24, 2015 Vic (@AgileCoffee) attended the Scrum Alliance's fourth Scrum Coaching Retreat in the USA. It was three days of examination of what it means to be a coach in a scrum environment and how we can improve our coaching methods worldwide. In the first two days, participants had the opportunity to pitch a project they wished to focus on. Everyone then joined a project team and organized using scrum processes and roles. We had three sprints (spanning the two days) in which to iterate and increment on a delivery of our final products. The final day was devoted to an Open Space event and a closing retrospective. One of the projects created can be found at AgileLeadershipToolkit.com. I'll make others available once I receive explicit permission and links from their creators. Special kudos go out to Stewart Young (@Stuartliveart) of illustrationstation.co.uk for completing some amazing artwork throughout the three days. Vic hosted a lean coffee during Open space on the third day, and he was joined by: Dan Fuller of SolutionsIQ CeeDee Doyle of Assurity in New Zealand Kelley Harris(@mkelleyharris) of SourceCell Max Lamers (@maxlamers) Jeff Nielsen of RMC Learning Solutions Dave Cornelius (@DrCorneliusInfo) of 5saturdays Topics included: Overcoming team dysfunctions at the Scrum Coaching Retreat Alternative formats for a three-day retreat How to do podcasts (see below) PO coaching beyond the basics Impact Mapping Value proposition for coaching vs just training For more information on retreats Links to previous (and upcoming) Coaching Retreats in the USA: Boulder, CO - Dec 7-9, 2011 Chandler, AZ - Dec 4-6, 2013 - archive of projects Raleigh (Chapel Hill), NC - Oct 28-30, 2014 Seattle, WA - June 22-24, 2015 Irvine, CA - Spring 2016 Podcasting Tools and Techniques I produce my shows old school - by gathering participants in a room and recording with a bunch of mics. (I have a degree in audio engineering, so I'm a bit of an audiophile.) It's fun, and nothing beats the face-to-face communication with all its nuances and clarity. We meet about twice a month in a mostly quiet space, and it takes my about 10-15 minutes to set up the equipment and do a quick check of levels. For these bigger on location recording (from 4 to 6 attendees), I use a Behringer X1222 mixing board and Audio Technica ATR2100 or similar mics, plug it into my laptop and be good. [None of these links are affiliate links - just plain links to Amazon.] When it's only a few of us, I'll just bring my Zoom H5 handy recorder to blug mics in to - no need to lug my laptop around. In my home studio where it's only me, I either plug my mic into the laptop or go through a smaller Behringer Xenyx mixer. For post-production I use the free software Audacity (for PC). It does everything I need; I only do a minor amount of editing, and I like to tweak the levels somewhat. I export the file as MPEG Layer 3 (.mp3) format and load it into my local iTunes to enter the metadata (pretty much just cut-and-paste from a template). Then it's time to upload to my audio host. Libsyn costs about $12 / month, but you can get a cheaper plan with them (or free elsewhere) if you podcast less frequently (I post at least two Agile Coffee podcasts a month and sometimes other projects as well). Libsyn also provides download stats. When it's time to announce the new episode, the
