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

17. AGILE A-Z CHAPTER 4: FEEDBACK LOOP
FEEDBACK LOOP - MEASURING
▸ Users don’t always know what they want

18. AGILE A-Z CHAPTER 4: FEEDBACK LOOP
FEEDBACK LOOP - LEARN / ADAPT
▸ Remember to be true to your vision
▸ Changing direction every spring won’t be
healthy for your team
▸ Technical Dept might increase
▸ 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
▸ Find your minimal viable product (MVP)
▸ Mockups or wireframes can be enough in some cases

20. WHEN DO YOU
FAIL?

EXPERIMENT & LEARN RAPIDLY
"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
