Als een organisatie besluit om agile in te voeren dan wordt er vaak ook gesproken over doelen. Mijn ervaring is dat agile als doel stellen niet werkt, agile is een middel dat kan helpen om effectiever te worden en daarmee dichter bij je doel te komen. Goed omgaan met doelen speelt wel een belangrijke rol bij het behalen van succes en resultaten met agile. Doelen en agile, hoe werkt dat? Hier zijn mijn tips.
I'm honored to have been interviewed by Tom Cagley for his Software Process and Measurement Cast (SPaMCAST). Tom and I talked about the need for continuous improvement and how agile teams can develop skills and practices to recognize and deal with impediments.
The presentation from the keynote that I gave on February 15 at 1stConf about The Need for Continuous Improvement in Agile is now available. It has been published on my presentations page.
In this workshop you will learn how to scale agile retrospectives, doing them with multiple teams from a project, product or organization, practice facilitation skills with different retrospective exercises, and learn how you can introduce and improve retrospectives. You will also learn to do agile self-assessments and readiness checks and to design and facilitate retrospectives that help organizations to increase their agility.
In this workshop you will learn different exercises that you can use to facilitate retrospectives, supported with the “what” and “why” of retrospectives, the business value and benefits that they can bring you.

Via twitter kwam in contact met Johan Roels. In zijn boek Cruciale Dialogen herken ik veel dingen vanuit mijn ervaring met continue verbetering in organisaties. Het vlindermodel wat Johan heeft gedefinieerd in zijn boek verbindt communicatie met waardering om oplossingen voor problemen te zoeken en die vervolgens effectief te implementeren.
