Worst Nightmare!

I came here to talk

about my book…!

My Pleasure!!

Free Shoulder Pain Check…

Today’s audience

Let’s take a short cut…

The 19th century problem:

A giant leap for mankind!

Why do I get an un-needed brain every time I hire a pair of hands?

Hence…

(Unwanted) side effects…

But it works!

Aichi, ~1946…

Lean Production!

LEAN Maximize value (reduce waste)

Improve the Value Stream and help the system flow

Produce only when needed (pull), reduce inventories

Continuous Improvement by the whole workforce

Konosuke Matsushita “We are beyond the Taylor model. Business, we know, is now so complex and difficult, the survival of firms so hazardous in an environment increasingly unpredictable, competitive and fraught with danger, that their continued existence depends on the day-to-day mobilization of every ounce of intelligence. "

Nonaka & Takeuchi

Rise of new species…

“30 to 50 times more productive than the average”

Teamwork

“It is teamwork that remains the ultimate competitive advantage, both because it is so powerful and so rare.”

We Still don’t get it!

Mmmm… wait a

minute…

companies… Why should I care about this Agile thing?

But this comes from

In fact, how do I know that Agile is not the latest trendy management FAD?

AGILE…?

OK, forget about the “A” word…

Now let me give you just one good reason to care about this talk…

Survival!

Deceased!

“Too Big To Fail”…

DECEASED!

Change on environment…

…or new species arriving!

Survival is a matter of adaptation

“There’s no need to change.

Survival is not mandatory.”

No NEW NEWS!

It’s not enough to have Agile

When environment changes, you have to adapt

When a

FAST Competitor appears, it’s time to

adapt or die!

Mmmm… Ok, let’s be Agile, but

still…

Where’s the “Management”

part of the talk?

Here it comes…

There are black holes in Agile…

??????

????????

Consequences

Wrong Products

(a.k.a. “double the sh*t, double fast”)

Cargo Cult Agile

“No planning”

“Fail Fast” “No documents”

“No Project Manager”

“No BDUF”

“Story Points”

“Playing cards”

“Self Organization”

High Waterfallity Rate

Lack of Coordination

Self-Organization gone wild

Software Anarcho-Syndicalism

In two flavours…

Barriers to Agile Adoption

http://www.versionone.com/state_of_agile_development_survey/11/

- Ability to change organizational culture

- Availability of people with the right skills

- General resistance to change

- Management support

- Project complexity

- Confidence in ability to scale

- Customer collaboration

- Perceived time to transition

- Budget constraints

- None

And what’s more important…

SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!

“They promised me Mars colonies…

instead, I got Facebook!”

Where are the Hyper-Productive Agile companies?

Conformance, yes, but…

Demotivated Teams Resistance to Change

Cargo Cult Low productivity

Lack of business alignment

Long lead times

Fear of Agile

Lack of Skills

No clear results No ability to scale “Bad” Self Organization

No coordination

Scattered Knowledge

Wrong Products

Agile Management

Management 3.0

A software team is a self organizing system: support it, don’t obstruct it

Agile Managers work the system around the team, not the people in the team

http://www.slideshare.net/jurgenappelo/what-is-agile-management

Instead of blindly following a process…

Look for

RESULTS

Let’s break the walls of the

‘Agile Team’…

Understanding Agile’s True Nature

And building the next generation of

AGILE COMPANIES

As a takeaway: 1. Command, Control and Coercive Management kill

self-organization, talent, innovation and creativity.

changing environments instead of blindly following strategies, plans, budgets, deadlines…
