Agile: State of the Union (June 2016 Agile Hartford)
Download as PPTX, PDF1 like303 views
This document summarizes the key findings from a 2016 state of the union on agile presented by Steve Nunziata. It finds that while scrum remains popular, other early agile methods have lost audience. Agile continues to evolve with new hybrid approaches and an increased focus on scaling for large organizations. Barriers to adoption like resistance to change and organizational culture issues persist. There is a need to focus more on agile principles rather than processes. Lean thinking, iterative delivery, and aligning with values like the agile manifesto are emphasized as core to agile approaches going forward.

- 8. Company Size (Software Department) 2006 through 2008 = Only 30% of respondents had software development shops larger than 250 people. 2012, 75% of respondents were in shops of less than 500 people. By 2015, 24% of respondents were in organizations of 20,000+ people, with IT shops of at least 5,000 people.

- 14. While We’re on the Subject… Why is this SO HARD?
- 15. What We Have Learned Scrum is remarkably resilient, even in Scale Other “Gen 1” Agile approaches have lost their initial audience Agile methods continue to evolve, scale, and morph into new entities (“Leanban”)? Traditional barriers to adoption have not been broken The Agile movement is increasingly driven by larger companies
- 16. Where We Are Headed From ‘OSFA’ to Tailored Methods Continued growth and innovation in the Agile @ Scale domain A clear need for Principle driven behaviors, evolving away from ‘what the book says’ Scrum skills are still in demand
- 17. What is Driving the Evolution of Agile?
- 18. What is the Key to Success with Agile?
- 19. Lean Thinking “Scrum, XP, and Kanban can be considered as partial manifestations of Lean.” Al Shalloway
- 20. Cornerstone of Agility – Lean Principles 1. Eliminate Waste 2. Amplify Learning 3. Decide as Late as Possible 4. Deliver as Fast as Possible 5. Empower the Team 6. Build Integrity in 7. See the Whole
- 21. Core Lean Principles - Defined Eliminate Waste Amplify Learning
- 22. Lean Principle – Eliminate Waste Incomplete Work Task Switching Defects
- 23. Lean Principle – Amplify Learning Idea Build Measure Learn
- 24. Small Batches to Amplify Learning Reduces Risk & Variability Shortens Cycle Time – Market & Feedback Problems are Instantly Localized Increased Quality – Less Defects
- 25. Large Batches – Infrequent Learning Months 1-3 Months 7-9 Months 4-6 Months 10-12
- 26. Agile Defined 1) ‘Agile’ is a term that represents a family of Principle driven, Adaptive Frameworks (a.k.a. ‘Methods’).
- 27. Agile Defined Image: Henrik Kniberg (http://blog.crisp.se/author/henrikkniberg) Agile Methods are Inherently Incomplete
- 28. Recipe for Success with Agile 1. Understand Context 2. Choose an Agile Method 3. Augment as Necessary 4. Test, Learn, Adjust
- 29. Agile Defined 1) ‘Agile’ is a term that represents a family of Principle driven, Adaptive Frameworks (a.k.a. ‘Methods’). 2) Agile is characterized by Iterative and Incremental build and delivery, in adherence with Lean Principles.
- 31. The Scrum Cycle Small Batch of Software Small Batch of Information• Minimize Waste • Amplify Learning
- 32. Agile – Keep a Lean Perspective! • Scrum, Extreme Programming (XP), Kanban, and other Agile Methods can be considered as partial manifestations of Lean. • Each Agile method has constructs (ceremonies, roles, processes) aligned closely to Lean Principles.
- 33. Agile Defined 1) ‘Agile’ is a term that represents a family of Principle driven, Adaptive Frameworks (a.k.a. ‘Methods’). 2) Agile is characterized by Iterative and Incremental build and delivery, in adherence with Lean Principles. 3) Agile methods also ascribe to the values formalized in the Agile Manifesto.
- 34. Agile Defined
- 35. Quick Test - Quotes from ‘The Field’ “We have our Daily Standup every Friday.” “We demonstrate our work every two weeks, just without the primary customer.” “No, really, the project was 90% complete last week. Now we’re about 60% complete.” “Our first Sprint was Analysis, our second Sprint was Design... We hope to Code in our third.”

- #36: What’s the problem? LARGE BATCHES OF INFORMATION leads to significant risk!
