Integrating Agile: September 2012

http://integratingagile.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html

Wednesday, September 26, 2012. Fail Fast, Fail Often, Fail Cheap. I’m working my way through a thought-provoking book – Know What You Don't Know: How Great Leaders Prevent Problems Before They Happen,. By Michael Roberto. The main focus is on how business schools do a terrific job at training MBAs how to solve problems, but do little to help them find. Those problems in the first place. The book identifies ways to find the small problems that may become bigger if left untouched. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Integrating Agile: October 2013

http://integratingagile.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html

Tuesday, October 15, 2013. Happy Ada Lovelace Day! In commemoration of one of the first women in computational science, I want to celebrate the women I know who are in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math). I thought I'd write about one woman who has inspired me, but - wonderful problem! There are so many who have inspired through the years that I can't decide on just one. So here's to the many women who inspire and guide me:. My adopted mom, a nurse of amazing precision. Jira and Agile : Usi...

Integrating Agile: January 2013

http://integratingagile.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html

Friday, January 25, 2013. Baby steps to BIG CHANGE. Transitioning to agile practices can be extremely difficult for an organization. It’s a BIG CHANGE. I’ve spent many hours contemplating how to split the BIG CHANGE. Into smaller pieces of change, very much like the process of reducing epics into manageable user stories, and then into tasks. For example, how do you take baby steps from (original state) to (desired state)? What baby steps get you to the state you want? Friday, January 11, 2013. If you spe...

Musings of an Agile Coach. Among other things, an agile Coach. Based in Chicago. Thinking great thoughts about being agile, and hearing great thoughts from others! Lower case 'a' because I believe in agility, not the dogma that Agile has become. Or insert your provocative title here! A tweet by my mentor @SAlhir. Alerted me to an article about possible dangers of mindfulness. I’d love to know what the Buddhist Geeks. But we are complex beings with many more levels, that is, levels on which we do. After a...

Hacer testing es también capturar conocimiento ~ Tengo una idea

http://germanbraun.blogspot.com/2013/07/hacer-testing-es-tambien-capturar.html

El blog de Germán Braun. Hacer testing es también capturar conocimiento. Posted by German Braun on 27.7.13 with 5 comments. Varias veces he escuchado la siguiente frase: "Los desarrolladores tiene un pensamiento constructivo y los testers tienen un pensamiento destructivo". Esta falacia se está derrumbando con el paso del tiempo (por suerte). Los testers también construyen, nada más ni nada menos que calidad. Ernesto Kiszkurno. Ya habló de esto. En conclusión, es hora de integrar definitivamente. Interes...

Integrating Agile: April 2013

http://integratingagile.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html

Friday, April 5, 2013. Downstream WIP Limits – Another cooking analogy. I made a rather extensive Sunday brunch a while ago for the family, with a couple of new recipes that I prepared the day before– sweet rolls and a spinach and almond pie (think soufflé in a crust). Both turned out great, but in my “retrospective” after spending the day cooking, I realized I had missed something. This story illustrates the reasons why lean processes seek to reduce the 3 M’s – muri. Waste), and mura. This is similar to...

Musings of an Agile Coach. Monthly Archives: November 2014. Burndown Charts That Suck #1. Over the past year or so, I’ve collected some burndown charts that illustrate some team problems. I don’t want to tell tales on past clients, so no names will be revealed by me. And for that matter, people always mean to do their best, but sometimes it’s an emotional challenge to fix things (see the second to last paragraph below). Stories not broken down into small enough pieces. The second is a more emotional issu...

And for that matter, people always mean to do their best, but sometimes it’s an emotional challenge to fix things (see the second to last paragraph below).
