Infographic: 10 Things HR Does Not Want To Hear From Agile (Agile HR)Fabiola Eyholzer
When Lean | Agile meets traditional Human Resources, two worlds with different values, principles, and practices collide. See the top 10 issues Lean | Agile teams are most frustrated about when it comes to their HR.
Meeting the demands of agile teams with traditional people solutions is a challenge. In our infographic we summarized the top 10 shortcomings of Human Resources from a team perspective.
1. Performance Management kills team dynamic and agility.
2. Bonus Models do not foster agile values and undermine collaborative behavior.
3. Employee Appraisals are too ritualistic and infrequent to keep up with fast feedbacks.
4. Talent Development is not in line with continuous learning and knowledge sharing.
5. HR overlooks to also hire for mindset, ability, and conduct to thrive in agile teams.
6. HR cares more about policies and regulations than helping us unlock our potential.
7. HR is more concerned about the outdated notion of retention than engagement.
8. HR instruments are too static and do not inspire meaning and growth.
9. HR does not connect with people and cannot be trusted to act in our best interest.
10. HR does not get Agile and is not interested in understanding it.
Lean | Agile teams deserve amazing people solutions aligned with their values & principles. It is up to HR to become People Operations and create an inspiring and engaging workplace where people can thrive.
Does your HR meet the standard of Lean | Agile teams?
Adhocracy, holacracy, sociocracy or idiotcracy. We are constantly talking about changing our culture in organizations.
At the same time the majority of people just want to be left alone and get on with their work.
So how do we know what our culture was to begin with? A survey once a year asking if you are collaborating isn’t really a good way to “measure” culture.
On the Christmas party the leadership holds a great motivational speech on how we are now self-organizing and tell you to go and self-organize. How do we know that today we have a different culture from yesterday?
Telling people to change isn’t working. Putting up motivational posters don’t magically change our culture. So how do we get to a different culture?
In this session we will explore culture, ways to quantify culture in real time and ways how to grow and influence instead of “change" culture.

Strategic structures for aligning Cooperation_the Enterprise.pdfMalcolm Ryder
A comparison of four different organizational models for co-operative pursuit of goals. Emphasis is on distinguishing "enterprise" as a specific configuration rather than as a catch-all synonym for "business".
Inclusion is the Equity of Diversity 04.19.23.pdfMalcolm Ryder
In a society that contains multiple cultures, the ideas of multi-culturalism and diversity appear to be the same goal, but social behaviors have their own systems outside of culture that predispose inclusion or exclusion at any level of community. This description navigates and categorizes the constellation of terms and dynamics presumed to characterize equitable inclusivity in a heterogeneous culture.
A Semantic Model of Enterprise Change.pdfMalcolm Ryder
This presentation is a distillation of language used to describe the scope and configuration of change managed at the enterprise level. Its goal was to find a way to drastically reduce the vocabulary necessary to model managed change, and to have the model be far more intuitively familiar.
Being simple-minded about complexity does not help to understand it nor to work with it successfully. This breakdown abstracts and compiles the many aspects of recognizing, creating, and managing with complexity as is consistent across many different domains of effort.
As examples of wheels not needing to be reinvented, medicine and technical support both have profound and extensive practice knowledge in seeing through symptoms to causes, for problem-solving. That experience feeds back lessons learned into future designs of environments, processes and products or services - but also into problem-solving itself. This discussion arranges various aspects of that learning into a practical reference for maturing the decision-making capability needed on demand. This arrangement is work in progress.
We accept that everyone has Bias, and the study of that is exhaustive if not complete. But we continue to ask Why we have bias; the answer is that we need it.
Debating about design in the social media of business seems aimed at designing Design itself; but the results so far are not very persuasive. This is a significant knowledge management problem.
Change Management now requires a new perspective on management itself, to cope with the new normal of increasingly frequent and varied demand for change.
Alignment of Value and Performance - Reference modelMalcolm Ryder
Performance is meaningless unless it also amounts to needed value. The activity that generates this relationship is visible in a hierarchy of logical dependencies. The vocabulary for this visibilty is already very common; here it is also fully disambiguated.
As opposed to execution, delivery, and other common terms of progression, "production" is a perspective that directly relies on designing continuous value-driven activity, not on achieving a single prescribed outcome. Enabling active capability is the management concern, and value creation is the experience.
Management's relationship to complexity is clarified in this short piece based on revisiting basic definitions. No special domain expertise is required but the argument applies to all domains.
A meeting is a group behavior, and the value of the meeting will depend on why people will do what they do with it. This framework explains the cause and effect linkages occurring within a meeting that actually is needed instead of merely held.
Not all workgroups are teams, and teams may not be enough to cover the work needed to meet requirements. This framework identfies the scale of workgroup and scope of requirements that distinguishes one type of workgroup from another.
Waterfall was never so much of a development management method addressing a customer demand issue. Rather, it is a build management method addressing a product management issue. See how.
The future of work depends on the future of managed change. This overview identifies why work, as arranged by organizations, is modified both in practice and policy but must become focused primarily on why the worker works.
The design and redesign of organizations today more regularly pursues agility, but very often it thinks that a given model will cause it, rather than discovering its best model from knowing what agility needs. This discussion surveys the underpinning archihtecture of agility, from which to cultivate or discover a site's appropriate model(s).
The purpose of organization is to influence effectiveness, and the logic behind that is practiced through the model of organization. This notebook compiles a common logic behind all models of organization.
Managed Change efforts overall still fail at 66% to 75% of the time. This means that the prevailing perspective on how to "make" change is defeating most other factors. Here's why.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
