“The world is becoming turbulent faster than companies
are becoming resilient”
Gary Hamel - HBR
The “fog of the future” requires greater focus creating an
“execution culture”
Donald Sull - London School of Business
Volatility is redefining the business environment and
today’s “best practices” are completely inadequate
Gary Hamel - HBR
We now live in a VUCA World that requires leaders
and organizations to become more AGILE if they aim to
be successful and survive!

Waterfall
(“Best Practices”)
Agile
(for anything complicated
or complex)
Stacey Matrix
Issues or decisions are close
to certainty when cause and
effect linkages can be
determined.
The vertical axis measures the
level of agreement about an
issue or decision within the
group, team or organization.

• People-centric way to create innovative products and solutions
• Market-centric model to maximize business value
• Demand-Driven model based on lean principles:

Partially Done Has No Value!
http://blog.nongkhaidesign.com/tag/udon-thani/
Definition of Done (DoD)
consistent acceptance criteria across all User Stories
(Requirements).
The DoD drives the quality of work and define when
a User Story has been completed.
It is a simple list of activities (writing code, coding comments, unit
testing, integration testing, release notes, design documents, etc.)
that add verifiable/ demonstrable value to the product.

Agile in a Nut-Shell: Adaptive Development Approach
Adaptive process: the vision creates feature
estimates
• Time, Cost, and Quality are Fixed
• Features (Requirements) are variable,
negotiable with the customer
Customer Happiness / Market Demand
Create a MVP – Minimal Viable Product,
i.e. Minimal Released Product
Ship at end of each increment.
Create stand-alone solutions – increase
value independently.
Feedback Loops are appreciated – no
risk!
You can stop at each phase without
loss! – “Pivoting”

The team has complete control over the amount of
work it takes on: team is self-organized, it pulls
only the tasks they can handle in one sprint!
Scrum teams are cross-functional, including the
skills (but ideally not the job titles) of software
engineers, architects, programmers, analysts,
QA experts, testers, UI designers, etc.

Agile Managers recruit and construct teams, gather
and provide feedback, guide career paths, and coach results.
They set the Vision clearly, in a way that the team
can adopt it as their own..
But, never ever, they command how to do
tasks.
Trust the people doing the job.

Agile Values
Nina Matthews https://www.flickr.com/photos/21560098@N06/6722653055/sizes/l/
Individuals and Interactions
over Processes and Tools
Respect for the worth of every
person
Truth in every communication
Transparency of all data,
actions, and decisions
Trust that each person will support
the team
Commitment to the team and to the
team’s goals
Working Software
over Comprehensive Documentation
Working software is one of the big
differences that agile development
brings.
The “Definition of Done (DoD)”
defines “working software”.
The DoD also covers the extent of
documentation as essential and
valuable deliverables.
Customer Collaboration
over Contract Negotiation
Cooperate and collaborate in short
feedback loops and direct
contact with the customers
continuously.
Responding to Change
over Following a Plan
Changes always improve a
product; changes provide additional
value.
www.plays-in-business.com
www.Plays-in-Business.com
Agile Values
Nina Matthews https://www.flickr.com/photos/21560098@N06/6722653055/sizes/l/
Our highest priority is to
satisfy the customer
through early and
continuous delivery
of valuable software.
Welcome changing requirements,
even late in development. Agile processes harness change for the
customer's competitive advantage.
Business people and
developers must work
together daily throughout the project.
Build projects around motivated individuals.
Give them the
environment and support
they need, and trust them to get the job done.
Working software is the
primary measure
of progress.
Deliver
working software
frequently, from a couple of weeks to a
couple of months, with a preference to the
shorter timescale.
www.plays-in-business.com
www.Plays-in-Business.com
Agile Values
Nina Matthews https://www.flickr.com/photos/21560098@N06/6722653055/sizes/l/
Agile processes promote sustainable development.
The sponsors, developers, and users should be able to
maintain a constant pace
indefinitely.
Continuous attention to
technical excellence
and good design enhances agility.
Simplicity– the art of maximizing
the amount of work not done – is
essential.
The best architectures, requirements, and designs
emerge from self-organizing teams.
At regular intervals, the team reflects on how to become more
effective, then tunes and adjusts its
behavior accordingly.
The most efficient and effective
method of conveying information to
and within a development team is
face-to-face
conversation.

Forbes, http://www.forbes.com/sites/stevedenning/2016/09/08/explaining-agile/
AGILE TEAM
• Autonomous (self-organized)
• Team responsibility – ”blame the team”
• No silo-ing – Cross-functional
• Much interaction
BUREAUCRATIC TEAM
• Top Down
• Individual responsibilities – ”blame the person”
• Trend to “silo-ing”: department boundaries
• Little Interaction
www.plays-in-business.com
www.Plays-in-Business.com
Self-Organizing Teams
A group of motivated individuals, who work
together toward a goal, have the ability and
authority to take decisions and readily
adapt to changing demands.

Self-Organizing Teams
DVIDSHUB, https://www.flickr.com/photos/dvids/5546514579/
Essentials of Self-organizing Teams
Ownership & Commitment: they pull work
for themselves and don't wait for their leader to assign work.
Self Management: they manage their work
(allocation, reallocation, estimation, re-estimation, delivery,
and rework) as a group.
Coaching & Mentoring: they require mentoring
and coaching, but they don't require "command and control."
Communication: they communicate more with
each other.
Learning: they continuously enhance their own skills
and recommend innovative ideas and improvements.

Self-Organizing Teams
U.S. Army, https://www.flickr.com/photos/familymwr/5081186618/
Essentials of Self-organizing Teams
Competency: Individuals competent for the job
at hand. Result: confidence in their work and no need for
direction from above.
Collaboration: They work as a team rather
than as a group of individuals. Teamwork is encouraged.
Motivation: Team members are focused and
interested in their work.
Trust and respect: Team members trust and
respect each other. They believe in collective code ownership
and are ready to go the extra mile to help each other resolve
issues. No “Blame-Game” .
Continuity: The team stay together for a
reasonable duration; changing its composition every now and
then doesn't help.

Agile Team Building – Cross Functional Teams
Jeremy Keith, https://www.flickr.com/photos/adactio/16214923873/
Cross-Functional Teams
• There are the right people (skill set) on
the team to do the job.
• They are led from within the team, not
managed.
• They understand their mission.
• They communicate and collaborate
continuously.
• They are accountable for their results.
Cross-Functional Teams ≠ Cross-
Functional People
• cross-functional people do not possess
every required skill set
• experts in the individual skill sets
required who can complement and work
well with the rest of the team.

The “Definition of Done (DoD)” defines “working software”. The DoD also covers the extent of documentation as essential and valuable deliverables. Customer Collaboration over Contract Negotiation Cooperate and collaborate in short feedback loops and direct contact with the customers continuously. Responding to Change over Following a Plan Changes always improve a product; changes provide additional value.
  • 31. www.plays-in-business.com www.Plays-in-Business.com Agile Values Nina Matthews https://www.flickr.com/photos/21560098@N06/6722653055/sizes/l/ Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software. Welcome changing requirements, even late in development. Agile processes harness change for the customer's competitive advantage. Business people and developers must work together daily throughout the project. Build projects around motivated individuals. Give them the environment and support they need, and trust them to get the job done. Working software is the primary measure of progress. Deliver working software frequently, from a couple of weeks to a couple of months, with a preference to the shorter timescale.
  • 32. www.plays-in-business.com www.Plays-in-Business.com Agile Values Nina Matthews https://www.flickr.com/photos/21560098@N06/6722653055/sizes/l/ Agile processes promote sustainable development. The sponsors, developers, and users should be able to maintain a constant pace indefinitely. Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design enhances agility. Simplicity– the art of maximizing the amount of work not done – is essential. The best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing teams. At regular intervals, the team reflects on how to become more effective, then tunes and adjusts its behavior accordingly. The most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within a development team is face-to-face conversation.

Self Management: they manage their work (allocation, reallocation, estimation, re-estimation, delivery, and rework) as a group. Coaching & Mentoring: they require mentoring and coaching, but they don't require "command and control." Communication: they communicate more with each other. Learning: they continuously enhance their own skills and recommend innovative ideas and improvements.

Result: confidence in their work and no need for direction from above. Collaboration: They work as a team rather than as a group of individuals. Teamwork is encouraged. Motivation: Team members are focused and interested in their work. Trust and respect: Team members trust and respect each other. They believe in collective code ownership and are ready to go the extra mile to help each other resolve issues. No “Blame-Game” . Continuity: The team stay together for a reasonable duration; changing its composition every now and then doesn't help.

Editor's Notes

  • #3: Volatility: nature and dynamics of change; nature and speed of change forces and change catalysts. Uncertainty: lack of predictability; prospects for surprise; and sense of awareness and understanding of issues and events. Complexity: multiplex of forces; confounding of issues; chaos and confusion that surround an organization. Ambiguity: haziness of reality; potential for misreads; mixed meanings of conditions; cause-and-effect confusion.

  • #48: Who Moved My Cheese? Is a simple parable that reveals profound truths about change. It is an amusing and enlightening story of four characters who live in a "Maze" and look for "Cheese" to nourish them and make them happy. "Cheese" is a metaphor for what you want to have in life -- whether it is a good job, a loving relationship, money, a possession, health, or spiritual peace of mind. And "The Maze" is where you look for what you want -- the organization you work in, or the family or community you live in. The characters are faced with unexpected change. Eventually, one of them deals with it successfully, and writes what he has learned from his experience on the maze walls. When you come to see "The Handwriting on the Wall," you can discover for yourself how to deal with change, so that you can enjoy less stress and more success (however you define it) in your work and in your life. Written for all ages, the story takes a little over an hour to listen to, but its unique insights can last a lifetime.
  • #53: Cynefin is a Welsh word, which is commonly translated into English as 'habitat' or 'place', although this fails to convey its full meaning.
