"...and all those moments will be lost in time,
like tears in rain.

Time to sprint.”

…but seriously, I HAVE managed to make Agile work through a little deception. We told management we were basing the setup on SAFe and Scrum, then turned around and told the (entirely unexperienced in Agile) teams to just start there and feel free to change whatever needed changing.

What we didn’t compromise on was daily connects that included the business stakeholders (for fast feedback and alignment) and the retros. We focused on teaming, collaboration and culture, keeping tools light and KPIs few.

Went from delivery averages of 3 months to 2-3 weeks. UAT dropped from 2 weeks to being checked off during the Demo. The users already knew what would be delivered and how it worked, as they had been co-creating with the technical team all along. This was in a conservative industry, maintaining systems on SAP ECC platform.

"Simple techniques, applied consistently over extended periods" - What Andrew Robson said about developing #bonsai also works for #software #development:

The things that help us create better software more effectively (#agile #engineering / modern software engineering) are not necessarily hard to do. But they require practice and experience, and we have to apply them consistently.

A great post about the role of the #Agile Coach in times of Ai.

"The Agile coach role isn’t disappearing.
It’s deepening.

In a world where AI can write your backlog, prioritise features, and even create a retro board…

You might wonder: what’s left for an Agile coach to do?

But here’s what I’ve noticed: when AI speeds things up, teams skip the hard bits.

💭The reflection.
❔The questioning.
😬The awkward conversations.

And that’s where coaching comes in."

www.linkedin.comThe Agile coach role isn’t disappearing. | Freya H Finnerty | 14 commentsThe Agile coach role isn’t disappearing. It’s deepening. In a world where AI can write your backlog, prioritise features, and even create a retro board… You might wonder: what’s left for an Agile coach to do? But here’s what I’ve noticed: when AI speeds things up, teams skip the hard bits. 💭The reflection. ❔The questioning. 😬The awkward conversations. And that’s where coaching comes in. Because when teams move fast, someone needs to say: “Let’s slow down here.” “Is this really what our users need?” “Have we agreed on what success looks like?” Coaches create space for the real work (the kind that doesn’t come out of a well-engineered prompt). They help teams: ↳ Challenge assumptions ↳ Talk about blockers that aren’t technical ↳ Reconnect, both to purpose and to each other So no, coaching is not going anywhere. If anything, it's becoming harder to get right. And definitely more essential. What do you think? I'd love to hear your perspective 👇 🙋‍♀️🦊 #AiTeams #Agile #AgileCoach #ProductTeams #TechMentor #WomanInTech #WeAreEnfuse #MatLeave | 14 comments on LinkedIn

A long-term client contract is ending in September, so I'll have some time in the last three months of the year. I want to spend a lot of it slowing down, learning, experimenting, ... and I'll write about it here.

I also have some capacity for training and technical coaching (Test-Driven Development, Agile Engineering, Domain Driven Design). Contact me to discuss more details if you are interested: DM here or business@davidtanzer.net
