How do you make Lean Practical ?
I was Oslo recently teaching a course on Lean Software Development. When we were organizing this course on of our goals was: Make it practical. As I was preparing the course material this was at the front of my mind. Well in the interests of consistency I’ve decided to stick with one, since Agile Triangle tends to be used to refer to project management type stuff Agile Pyramid wins. One of the reasons the course mandate was “Make it practical” was because some other Lean courses have a reputation for being less than practical. So what do I do?

Mr Scrum - Jeff Sutherland in London
And like me he avoids the use of tools to manage the tasks. a methodology • a defined process • a set procedures One of the questions that often comes up about Agile and in especially Scrum is: “What is the future of the Project Manager?” For me Jeff’s talk was well timed - I’m off to Switzerland today to teach a Scrum course On Thursday night I was lucky enough to meet Jeff Sutherland - one of the originators of Scrum - and hear him speak. The event was organised by the Scrum Training Institute and hosted by BT. So what did Jeff say? According to Jeff, Scrum is NOT.

Burn-down charts: The Good, Bad, advice and alternatives
However, once the estimate gets out there, once it becomes known the team estimates the project at 100 points of work people start ask questions when the number changes. So its wrong to talk about end dates - and also wrong to talk about projects because projects, by definition, have an end date. Then one day a colleague on another project (yes, you Ed), told me his Project Manager felt a lot happier now there was a burn-down chart in place for his work. They give Project Manager types something to stare at. genuine project.

  • On project management
    I finished my last entry by taking a swipe at project management and even project managers. That was probably unfair but the fact is I am not a fan of project management It could be a career limiting move to speak against project management but I feel I should say something to explain my sideswipe, I should explain my thoughts. Of course I'm not naive enough heretical think projects “just happen" - there needs be some kind of project management but it is the form project management usually takes that I have a problem with.

  • News, Conferences and a Project Management revelation
    As I said at the start of the year I want to divert more of my writing into other projects. Both of these will produce some reflections in this blog.          I’m going to be writing more about Project Management in the near future. During the last two week I have taken Project Manager training, not just any training, PRINCE 2 certified training. More organizations look to PRINCE 2 to show you know about Project Management. had to do two courses for two exams, one last week and one this week. However, I haven’t had much time for blogging.

  • Book review: Agile Project Management with SCRUM (and rant)
    It is difficult to say anything bad about Agile Project Management with Scrum (Schwaber, 2004). It sticks to its topic - managing projects using scrum. It is clear to me now (if there was ever any doubt) that Scrum is the management side that is missing from XP. courses, books, alliances, etc. In some ways this is good, by doing this Scrum can satisfy business that want to adopt some defined product, it allows Scrum to tackle CMM(I) type organizations and it allows people who want to do Agile to get on courses and learn the skills. I’m not sure.

  • Notes on a Kanban software development experience
    The BWR team had been tasked with a project for which a large functional specification had been written. It almost looked Scrum like, that is, if you ignored the Project Manager, Development Manager, Team Leader, Architect and second Project Manager who joined the project later - and lets not forget me as Agile Coach. Although they had “projects” to do most of their work was sustaining work. Many of the things the company called “projects” were really to small to be worthy of the name - but that’s another story. This worked well.

  • How do you do innovation?
    started to get all excited about innovation on Friday, when one of my managers said: “Allan, do you know anything we can do to improve innovation?” Of course there is one obvious answer: 20% personal projects, its the 3M example – and now Google. Just about everyone seems to have heard this example so I’ll be brief in my comments: at 3M engineers are encouraged to spend about 20% (figure varies depending on who you read and which company it is) on “personal projects.” Some of these projects eventually make it to full products, like Post-it pads and Google News.
