  • @user-zu1ky6sr7t
    @user-zu1ky6sr7t 4 месяца назад

    I can see the value of Agile but scrum is interesting. With some scrum masters, the team spend a lot of time following the rituals rather than doing the actual work. Some stake holders get really annoyed with the meetings upon meetings but they have to attend to be seen as embracing the agile way!
    We have a joke: Confucius says "Talking doesn't get the rice cooked!"
    There is a point with which the amount of time spent on figuring out ways to improve things in the past far outweighs the benefits of the returned improvements. Sort of like a dog chasing its tail. I am only sharing this because of some scrum masters who are so rigids in their rituals that the process becomes bogged down in the mechanics of getting things done, which contradicts what being agile is all about!
    Great video, by the way, and thank you very much!

  • @KilgoreTroutAsf
    @KilgoreTroutAsf 2 года назад +1

    So how does the team know which objectives are achievable within 2-4 weeks?
    Writing software is not like plowing a field. There are too many unkowns before starting the task. Not to mention bugs, miscommunication between team members, etc.

    • @MarkShead
      @MarkShead  Год назад

      Very good point. I find teams usually do better by focusing on the cycle time of each story because this pushes them to deliver the smallest thing possible. The very first one might indeed take more than 2 weeks, but most teams can start delivering all the way through in 2 to 4 days if they have the support they need.
      Once you start delivering these very small increments, you'll probably have a better idea of how many can be done in 2 weeks. Not because you are particularly accurate on any individual item, but because the ones that go faster and the ones that go slower will somewhat average out.
      However, and this is where I probably differ from hard core scrum users, once you start really focusing on cycle time the value of trying to figure out how much you can do in 2 weeks goes down. You might want to still demo every 2 weeks, or do a retrospective every 2 weeks, but if every days is spent focused on finishing the next small piece of work you'll likely move beyond the value of trying to plan how much you can fit into a sprint.

  • @pm71241
    @pm71241 3 года назад

    Could you reflect on the situation where the output from the reflection on how to become more efficient is: "less scrum" ?

    • @MarkShead
      @MarkShead  3 года назад

      Funny you should mention that. I was working with a team a few weeks ago that basically said the same thing. Personally I prefer Kanban to Scrum, but that isn't because Scrum is bad. It is just what I see teams typically evolve to when they're really focused on becoming more efficient and effective.
      I would really ask the team what they feel they're getting value out of and what they don't. For example if they aren't paying attention in the daily face-to-face meetings they probably aren't getting much value out of it. If they aren't paying attention because the meetings go on too long, maybe it's an opportunity to change up the way you're doing them so they're more focused. For example instead of going around the room and asking three questions, You might work through the board and just have everybody speak to the state of each story.
      The team I was working with decided that the board was actually hampering them from having real conversations around the state of all the work. So they decided to forgo showing the board on the screen and just talk through what was happening and make sure that the different pairs of programmers knew what was going on in every other group. They still bring the board up from time to time, but it was a good example of a team adapting to try to make the meeting more valuable.

    • @pm71241
      @pm71241 3 года назад

      @@MarkShead It's also a good example of what's wrong with scrum - although only a tiny little one of many.
      IMNSHO there's nothing agile about scrum. - but you can of course start not doing it and instead do as self-organizing technicians would naturally do to make it more agile.
      There's nothing wrong with having an issue-tracker or having a special subset of it where you have tasks you focus on. The Open Source community has been doing projects like that for ages.
      But all the ceremonies and formalism where you can only discuss and share thoughts on the issues in a superficial manner simply forgets one of the most important parts of actually being agile: "technical excellence".
      ... and I think many of the original signers of the agile manifesto would agree with me.
