What is Agile? - What are the roles in Agile development? How do we implement or scale with Agile? Which Agile processes should I use in my case? There are so many questions about Agile, so in a series of Meetups, we will try to uncover as many aspects of Agile as possible, in order to provide the full overview of Agility in organisations. The form will be a combination of presentations and discussions, so everyone has a chance to address their thoughts on the matter. In the first chapter, we had a more "general" talk about what Agile software development is, and the value behind it. What does it mean to be Agile? - In the second chapter we looked into the Product Owner role and the many expectations and responsibilities that comes along with the "titel" - and in the third chapter we turned our focus towards the Scrum Master, his role, responsibilities and the ceremonies in SCRUM. In the fourth chapter - the last this year - we will focus on the feedback loop. In order to be agile, to inspect and adapt and to learn fast you need to get feedback, so a strong and quick feedback loop is essential for succes with Agile. In the chapter we will be covering the following topics: • Failing is learning • Feedback loop • DevOps

11. WHY SPEND A FULL
MEETUP TALKING ABOUT
FEEDBACK?

12. AGILE A-Z CHAPTER 4: FEEDBACK LOOP
THE AGILE MANIFESTO
▸ Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
▸ Working software over comprehensive documentation
▸ Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
▸ Responding to change over following a plan
That is, while there is value in the items on the
right, we value the items on the left more.

13. AGILE A-Z CHAPTER 4: FEEDBACK LOOP
RESPONDING TO CHANGE OVER FOLLOWING A PLAN
▸ We can only respond to
change if we are aware
of the change
▸ Awareness comes from
listening to our
surroundings - listening
to feedback

FEEDBACK LOOP - LEARN / ADAPT
▸ Remember to be true to your vision

healthy for your team

▸ Long term planning / architecture might
fail
▸ Etc.

19. AGILE A-Z CHAPTER 4: FEEDBACK LOOP
FEEDBACK LOOP - BUILD
▸ Just make sure to build just enough to get feedback

"If you think that's a big failure, we're working on much bigger
failures right now. And I am not kidding. And some of them are
going to make the Fire Phone look like a tiny little blip”
Jeff Bezos, CEO at Amazon
"The size of your mistakes needs to grow along with the
company - If it doesn't, you're not going to be inventing at scale
that can actually move the needle"
Jeff Bezos, CEO at Amazon

FEEDBACK LOOP
▸ In order to learn fast - We need to be able to experiment
fast - to deliver fast.
▸ We need to continuously deliver just enough to verify
our assumptions
