In this presentation, I talk of Donald Reinstern's original idea of quantifying using Money units per time unit. However, the Agile world has been comprised a bit by using Fibonacci series or a scale of 1 to 10. Are we compromising the original intent of the author?
Presenter:
Dr. Gail Ferreira, Agile Practice Leader, MATRIX Resources, San Francisco Center of Excellence
Rapid scale directly impacts all levels of decision-making, planning, execution, culture, and communications for executives in hypergrowth companies. In this session, we will discuss how to organize, support, and tailor agile practices for teams and sub-teams in companies with a rapid growth cycle. We will share contemporary case studies of hypergrowth companies who have delivered agile at scale.
Topics will include:
• Basic agile and lean methods
• Scrum of Scrums
• SAFe
• Disciplined Agile Delivery (DAD)
• Agility at Scale (Ambler/Lines)
• Spotify model (Tribes, Squads, Chapters & Guilds, DSDM).

Lean Enterprise Transformation: The Journey Inside Large Organizations, Sonja...Lean Startup Co.
Large enterprises facing disruption struggle to transform quickly enough—from becoming more innovative to improving processes, culture, and ways of working. Transformation programs are often linear, multi-year engagements not focused on continuous learning and improvement. In this workshop, Sonja Kresojevic will share lessons learned from an award-winning Lean Enterprise transformation program at Pearson that will enable you to kick off and significantly accelerate your own organization's Lean Enterprise journey. She will uncover how proven approaches embodied in Lean Startup, Agile, and Adaptive Portfolio Management can be combined into a single cohesive framework that can serve as catalyst for powerful shifts in your organization.You will leave the workshop with an example of transformation roadmap ready to stimulate wide-ranging conversations and drive focused action, as soon as you return to your office.

We first look at what scaling is about and how Safe helps in scaling agile projects.
Cost of Delay: An Economic Approach to Decision MakingRoger Turnau
Cost of Delay is a lightweight approach to feature and product prioritization that asks a simple question: how much does it cost you not to have something? Reinertsen has said that Cost of Delay is the most important thing to quantify when producing a product. Great, but how do you start? How do you assign a dollar amount to something you have not built yet? How do we make sure that our teams focus on building the most important thing right now? This talk will give you the tools you need to understand Cost of Delay, as well as a set of techniques, from simple proxies to more sophisticated real-dollar analyses to help you understand the impact of delays on your organization.
Modern Professional Scrum using Flow and Kanban - Agile and Beyond Detroit 2019Yuval Yeret
Should you use Scrum or Kanban? You don’t have to choose: Scrum teams improve when they look at flows inside and outside their sprints from a Lean/Kanban perspective. In this session we will talk about Kanban-related myths prevalent in the Scrum world and identify common ground between them. We will look at ways to bring Kanban flow into your Scrum: the Kanban-based Sprint/product backlog, flow-based daily Scrum, visualizing aging work, and flow-based Sprint planning .We will describe ways to wrap Scrum with a Kanban flow system, and how DevOps fits into this picture.
You’ll leave with a better understanding of how Scrum, Kanban, and DevOps relate to each other and with ideas for experiments to try when back at work.

Agile 2013 - Lean Change for Enabling Agile TransformationsAlexis Hui
Experience report summarizing our experiences with agile transformation in mid-large sized IT organizations and challenges we faced with current methods available. As a result, we saw a need for a better change approach to help us and others in the agile community with agile transformations. Borrowing thinking and tools from Lean Startup, Kanban and Kotter we have defined a structured framework known as Lean Change. The premise behind our thinking is that successful agile transformation requires learning and feedback as the keys for success. Lean Change is founded on three concepts, co-creation of changes through negotiated change, experiment based objectives using minimum viable changes, and validated learning to guide changes through a structured validation lifecycle.

XBOSoft runs through the Top 10 Agile Metrics revealing the most fundamental data points Agile methodology requires to work effectively, and will put you on the highly targeted path to successful implementation of your Agile processes.
XBOSoft and Go2Group run through the top data points you should be measuring in your Agile Workflow. We’ll show you what to track, when and how often, and most importantly – why. Many believe that metrics are useless, but unless you measure, how can you systematically improve or know how you are doing? And with velocity as an overarching objective in agile, you should be tracking other things so that you know what else you could be impacting by going faster. But, with all the metrics so readily available to us today, how do we filter through to the most meaningful?
Having reviewed a number of Agile adoption approaches by big consulting companies given to organizations within the Kingdom, it's clear that many of them don't have the appropriate backgrounds to perform Agile transformations.
This session will discuss the Agile transformation adoption roadmap from real practitioners with numerous Agile adoptions in Saudi Arabia.
We will discuss what to try, what not to avoid, and some general things to consider.

Achieving differential value - Kano model
• Must-have features (bed,
bathroom, desk, clean)
• Linear features (the more the
better)
• Exciters and delighters (Customers
do not know until they see)
4. Confidential C
Rules for differential features
• Invest in MMFs, but never overinvest in a
feature that is already commoditized.
• Drive innovation by having the courage to
invest in exciters.
• If resources do not allow you to compete on
the current playing field, change the playing
field.

Delay —Don Reinertsen

Change in time ~= change in money

What is Cost of delay?
• Cost of Delay is a way of communicating the impact
of time on the outcomes we hope to achieve
• To make decisions, we need to understand not just how
valuable something is, but how urgent it is
16. Confidential C
Long-life products – peak “affected”
Unfair competitive advantage or other network effect
Facebook and SnapChat, or Cola brands and PC market
17. Confidential C
Long life cycle, peak value “unaffected” by delay
Established organizations – Automating a process,
improving efficiency, reducing cost of time.
23. Confidential C
User-Business Value
The potential value in
the eyes of the user
What is the revenue
impact on our
business?
Do our users prefer
this over that?
Potential penalty
24. Confidential C
Time criticality
How does the
business value decay
over time?
Will they wait for us
or move to another
solution?
Is there a fixed
deadline?
Effect on customer
satisfaction
25. Confidential C
Risk reduction / Opportunity enablement
What else does this
do for our business?
Is there value in the
information we will
receive? - Security
Does it decrease
