The document discusses key principles of an Agile vision and body, including: - The brain of Agile focuses on leadership, self-organization, and developing an Agile mindset. - The heart emphasizes using short time boxes for iterations, releases, meetings and other activities. - The legs represent running lean by using minimum viable products, pivoting when needed, and eliminating waste. - The senses refer to the importance of measuring to improve. - The family represents scaling Agile through teams using Agile release trains. - Protection involves managing risks through practices like estimation, complexity analysis, and change management.
The agile vision
- 1. The Agile Vision Ionel Condor @ionel_condor November 2012
- 2. The Agile Body The Brain: Agile Leadership, Self Organization and personal agile mindset The Heart: Short Time Box in everything The Legs: Running Lean, use MVPs and have alternatives(pivot) The Senses: you cannot improve if you do not measure The Family: Scaling Agile in teams using Agile Release Trains A Protector: Risk Management
- 3. Agile Leadership Did you miss opportunities? Do the Do the Agile right thing Leadership thing right Do it Is this low quality? fast Is this too expensive? Anyone use/likes it? Is this a quick ….crap? Is this high quality quick …crap?
- 4. Self Org & Delegation Chaos Complexity Order Anarchy Governance D Good intentions What we delegate: are not an excuse Inquire Authority or Tasks for incompetence ! ? Advice Agree Consult Sell Tell See: “Management 3.0: Leading Agile Developers, Developing Agile Leaders (Addison-Wesley Signature Series (Cohn))”
- 5. Agile mindset Agile Adoption or Agile Transformation ? - Agile Principles – please re read them - An Agile Adoption and Transformation Survival Guide Do we react to things, or move things ? Two traps during OUR transformation - Personal: get to know me better (SWOT, priorities,…) - Team: Vulnerability at the middle of the road Video summary: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqjKyyP_kT
- 6. Short time box Iterations Releases Meetings … … … Time box & Creativity Remember the PM triangle of Scope/Time/Cost
- 7. Running Lean See: “Lean Software Development: An Agile Toolkit” • Is this valuable ? (for customer, …), Eliminate Waste Am I efficient with resources ? 7 Key Principles of Lean Software Development Build Quality In • Do you learn (Inspect& Adapt) enough ? • Do you have habits or processes to store and Create Knowledge spread the knowledge? • Delay decisions until assumptions become Defer Commitment facts Deliver Fast • Quicker delivery of results and fast feedback • Perceived and Conceptual Integrity of the Build integrity in system, easy refactoring, CI/CD • See everything as a whole not as a sum of its Optimize the Whole parts Video summary: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3kKechcwYM
- 8. Use MVPs and Pivots Running Lean: iterations from Plan A to a plan that works, before running out of resources - speed, learning and focus - continuous testing and measuring if your vision is still OK - make sure the team/your colleagues are engaged - discipline and rigor / focus Lean Startup: use smaller and faster iterations to test your vision Run experiments MVP is not a product, but a strategy see also: http://radoff.com/blog/2010/05/04/minimum-viable-product-rant/
- 9. Measure and Observe 1. Metrics 2. Some metrics I found relevant personal efficiency / productivity team agility : running tested features
