15. 4 TeamsNumber of Teams
Workers (n?) : Each worker receives a batch of coins, flips them
using their lefty hand, and moves the batch/coins to the next worker
Each Team
Process experts (n?) : measure the time "their" worker spends
flipping coins
30 Coins for each team / Each Process Expert and the Customer’s
Boss needs a stopwatch with a lap split
30 Coins / Stopwatch
Customer (1) : sends the batch of coins to the workers, accepts (by
touching) the received coins from the last worker
Customer’s Boss (1) : Measures the time elapsed between sending
out the first coin and receiving a) the first value (coin) accepted and
b) all coins accepted.
What is needed
15
18. How to run
We time
- The time each player works
- The time it takes for the 1st coin to come out of the process
- The time it takes for all the coins to go through the process
Each player does his work by flipping each coin
using his/her lefty hand
The goal is to move all the coins through all the
players (workers)

2nd Round 3rd Round 4th Round 6th Round1st Round
To flip all the
coins one by
one and then
give the pile to
his nearby
colleague,
which should do
the same thing
and then give
the pile again to
the next person
To flip the coins
one by one
again but after
15 coins they
can pass the
pile to the next
person and start
to flip another
pile of 15 coins
To repeat the
operation with
piles of 5 coins
Ask all to flip
the coins one
by one and after
each coin to
give it to his
next colleague
as fast as
possible
Only pass the
coins to your
nearby
colleague if his
input queue is
free (no coins).
Measure the
time again and
you should
have lost few
seconds.
5th Round
To deliver 4000
points with the
minimum effort
and in the
shortest time
using the second
parallelized
approach (piles of
5 coins)

2nd Round 3rd Round 4th Round 6th Round1st Round
Waterfall /
Phases
Simulation
Parallelized
Approach
It is faster than
previously
5th Round
2nd Parallelized
Approach
version
It is even faster
but may
generate a bit
more pressure
than
precedingly
“Push”
production line
(Ford Model)
It’s even faster /
like working in a
factory. It’s not
pleasant, lot of
pressure, some
coins are flying
out of the tables
“Pull” Approach
(Kanban/Toyota
Model)
The pressure
has decreased;
a kind of
synchronization
appeared and
the coins are no
longer flying
“Scrum”
Approach
Customer to
prioritize the
coins that have a
higher value and
the time
measured is
generally the
shortest
PMI offers a comprehensive certification program for project practitioners of all education and skill levels. There are currently eight credentials available, rigorously developed, globally accredited and easily transferable across borders and industries.
PMI was the first organization to offer a credential specifically for project managers, and our certification program remains the global standard. Developed by practitioners for practitioners and representing our diverse global audience, PMI certifications give you a technical and financial edge.
PMI does not create the certification exams. It facilitates their creation by leveraging the knowledge and experience of certified practitioners who infuse their experiences into the design of competency-based test questions.
All PMI certifications are portable and transferable across countries, organizational boundaries and industries. They are not bound by specific methodologies or practices.
The PMP is accredited against the ISO 17024 standard, which is an independent standard focused on the evaluation of personnel through credentialing programs and exams. This is a differentiator and speaks to the rigor and sophistication of the PMI process—as audited and attested by a third-party organization in ANSI.
The PMP is also accredited against the ISO 9001 accreditation, which is an independent standard focused on best practices in quality management systems. This additional layer of accreditation further distinguishes the PMP from its peers and provides for the on-going health, maintenance and overall differentiation of the entire PMI credentialing program.
If you’re a business analyst who works on projects and programs or a project or program manager who performs business analysis as part of your role, the PMI-PBA certification highlights your expertise in business analysis. It also spotlights your ability to work effectively with stakeholders to define their business requirements, shape the output of their projects and drive successful business outcomes. The PMI Profession in Business Analysis (PMI-PBA)® initiated in 2014. This certification supports the strategic movement in several specialty areas—such as business analysis, agile, risk—where we believe every specialty should continue to grow within the context of project, program and portfolio management and its link with organizational strategy.
The Portfolio Management Professional (PfMP)® certification addresses the needs of those involved in organizational portfolio management. It launched in 2014.
To provide support information and instruction, PMI released four new practice guides:
Navigating Complexity, a practice guide
Implementing Organizational Project Management
Business Analysis for Practitioners
Managing Change in Organizations was published in 2013
ZDNet cited PMI Risk Management Professional and PMI Agile Certified Practitioner as among the top 20 certifications for IT professionals.
