In my workshops I often play the impediment game with teams. In that game team members discuss impediments that happen during Scrum sprints or Kanban flows, and decide how to deal with them and who should solve the impediment. The "who" is most often "any team member". But in practice I see that teams struggle with impediments, and often expect the Scrum master or a manager to solve them. Let's explore what can be done to have impediments solved by Scrum team members.

In the workshop Valuable Agile Retrospectives for Teams you will practice exercises for facilitating retrospectives in teams.
The aim of agile retrospectives is to come up with improvement actions. Having too many actions from retrospectives makes it harder for teams to improve, it's actually better to come up with less actions in stead of more in a retrospective. It's quality over quantity for actions. Here's some ideas on how to come up with less actions to get more done.
Spark the Change is about an organisation’s ability to be responsive, innovative and harness the energy of its employees. It brings together leaders from across the business to explore how they can work together to create lasting and total change. will cover this conference for InfoQ.
Ik zie regelmatig organisaties die besluiten dat ze agile en lean in willen voeren. Wat mij betreft een prima ontwikkeling, gezien de voordelen die een agile en lean werkwijze kan bieden. Waar het echter vaak mis gaat, is de manier waarop managers besluiten om agile en lean in te voeren: Top down, vooraf gepland, en met te weinig inbreng van de professionals. Dat moet en kan anders.
The Software-Centric Systems Conference facilitates the exchange of knowledge and experiences in the crucial and strategic discipline of complex software development.
In this interactive workshop you can practice different exercises from the Retrospective Exercises Toolbox to facilitate retrospectives. You will learn the “what” and “why” of retrospectives, the business value and benefits that they can bring for your team.
Agile teams use product backlogs to manage their requirements. Product owners prioritize the user stories. To enable delivering products with sufficient quality agile teams need to have user stories that are ready at the start of an iteration.
