Agile. The way from chaos to flow.

Agile. The way from chaos to flow.
Mikalai Alimenkou
Agile PechaKucha (27.01.2011)

We started with chaos…

Ideas was taken from building architecture

Many failed projects

Long and unpredictable cycle from idea to implementation
Almost no feedback

Agile approaches bring changes

New way of development with Scrum

Trust
Predictability
Collaboration
Rhythm

Short and predictable cycle

Focus on project goals and delivery potentially shippable product

Evolution never stops,new methods are always discovered

Lean principles changed way of thinking

Looking at assembly line and manufacturing for new ideas

Product is seen as features set, delivered incrementally

Kanban is a features production flow

Continuous delivery with minimal cycle time, quick feedback, no wastes

Flow is the best state!
At least for today…

All intermediate steps are very important
