Editor's Notes
- #7 - Scrum solves that problem. It also makes team members more engaged & increases job satisfaction Allows sales managers to get better understanding of their team’s pipeline; what team members are doing right or wrong and the impact their activities have on their bottom line In other words allow managers to mange performance rather than results
- #8 Mount Everest 8,848 m ->632m a day Daily distance covered will vary, so the best thing to do will be to focus on how much further to climb and how many days left before we have to turn back Tracking progress against goal is what we refer to as the “burn down”
- #9 - Measuring speed and distance to goal rather than the absolute value of sales closed.
- #16 Core to Scrum’s popularity You get direct visibility into how well you’ve been doing and how the performance thus far compares to what needs to be done going forward to reach goal Makes it very easy and quick to see how the team is tracking against goal
- #21 - Means to visualize salespeople’s workflows, their pipelines and how those pipelines develop over time
- #22 - Weekly scrum manifest itself in 2 quick meeting held once every 5 days (Standup & Retrospective)
- #24 - The team in sin the scrum every day. - The two meetings are like the tip of the iceberg – just 10% of its entire body
