This document provides an overview of agile project iterations in 3 parts. It discusses iteration planning, including prioritizing the backlog, estimating tasks, and creating an iteration backlog. It describes daily activities like scrums, testing, and continuous integration during the build phase. Metrics like burnup/down charts and cycle time are covered for monitoring progress. Retrospectives and continuous improvement are emphasized for inspecting and adapting between iterations.
The document discusses Agile development, which is a group of software development methodologies based on iterative development and collaboration between cross-functional teams. Agile development aims to reduce time to market, delivery risk, and costs through an iterative delivery process and applying lean production principles. It allows for requirements and solutions to evolve through collaboration. Agile development methodologies include Scrum, FDD, XP, and others.

CampDevOps keynote - DevOps: Using 'Lean' to eliminate BottlenecksSanjeev Sharma
This document summarizes Sanjeev Sharma's presentation on adopting DevOps practices to eliminate bottlenecks using Lean principles. The presentation covers: 1) viewing DevOps through a "Lean" lens to reduce waste and improve flow, 2) addressing bottlenecks with techniques like shifting left testing, full stack deployment, and emphasizing culture and people; and 3) resources for DevOps assessments and further information. The overall message is that DevOps can help optimize software delivery through collaboration, automation, and continuous feedback.
This document provides an introduction to agile principles and practices. It discusses that agile values responding to change, continuous delivery, collaboration between teams, and delivering working software frequently through iterative development. It outlines three common agile practices: continuous feedback through testing, test-driven development, and continuous integration. The document emphasizes failing fast and delivering minimum viable products to adapt to changing needs.
DevOps Kaizen: Find and Fix What is Really Behind Your Problemsdev2ops
This document provides an overview of DevOps Kaizen, which is a methodology for continuous improvement in DevOps. It discusses how Kaizen focuses on continuously improving the flow of work through scientific problem-solving approaches and total workforce engagement. The document outlines elements of a DevOps Kaizen program, including making work processes visible, planning improvements, and overcoming barriers to change. Techniques for process mapping, identifying inefficiencies, and creating improvement plans are also presented.
Without Self-Service Operations, the Cloud is Just Expensive Hosting 2.0 - (a...dev2ops
The document discusses how without self-service operations, the cloud becomes expensive hosting 2.0. It argues that conventional cloud wisdom about time and cost savings may not be realized due to legacy processes and tooling that prevent organizations from fully taking advantage of cloud capabilities. It advocates for cross-functional delivery teams, turning information flow into artifact flow to reduce handoffs, and inserting verification points to drive feedback loops and continuous delivery.
This session is an overview on what DevOps is (to me) and how it impacts traditional organizations the most. DevOps is way more than just continuous delivery! From an Agile (synergetic) mindset, DevOps takes a step beyond and focusses on automation, collaboration and learning. Apart from that I also look forward to what oppurtunities lie ahead when implementing DevOps.
On March 2nd I presented this DevOps Unraveled session for abt 40 IT-managers at business university Nyenrode. This was part of the Masterclass Agile management
(Dutch website http://www.executiveeducation.nl/open-programmas/programmadetails/masterclass-agile-management/sectie/introductie.html ).

Why Everyone Needs DevOps Now: 15 Year Study Of High Performing Technology OrgsGene Kim
This presentation describes my interpretation of the Why and How of DevOps, and the key findings from my 15 year study of high-performing IT organizations, and how they simultaneously deliver stellar service levels and rapid implementation of new features into the production environment.
Organizations employing DevOps practices such as Google, Amazon, Facebook, Etsy and Twitter are routinely deploying code into production hundreds, or even thousands, of times per day, while providing world-class availability, reliability and security. In contrast, most organizations struggle to do releases more every nine months.
He will present how these high-performing organizations achieve this fast flow of work through Product Management and Development, through QA and Infosec, and into IT Operations. By doing so, other organizations can now replicate the extraordinary culture and outcomes enabling their organization to win in the marketplace.
"The Lean Mindset": Mary & Tom Poppendieck's Keynote at AgileDayChile 2013ChileAgil

DevOpsDays Austin: Helping Horses Become Unicorns, Chef's Operations Maturity...Matt Ray
This document outlines Chef's Operations Maturity Model, which provides a roadmap for organizations to improve their operational maturity and move from being like horses to being like unicorns (highly automated and resilient). It discusses key areas of operational maturity like hardware management, operating system management, incident management, and postmortem analysis. Each area is broken down into levels of maturity from ad-hoc processes to fully automated continuous delivery. The goal is to help organizations understand where they are at and identify steps to improve areas like mean time to recovery and time to production. Ultimately, adopting the right culture is emphasized as more important than any specific technologies.
Agile 2014- Metrics driven development and devopsKarthik Gaekwad
There are many facets of devops, and we will spend our time in this presentation focusing on collecting and using metrics (business, application, system, etc.) and building a metrics driven culture in organizations.
We will define how we have seen devops progress in our organizations and how we’ve realized that different teams in our organizations can find common ground when teams (who have different roles) can work well together when they use metrics as the common language.
Karthik will talk about how we are using the principles from the Lean Startup to define our development cycles, sprints and using metrics to quantify how successful the products we are trying to come out with in R&D. Initially we started practicing devops on the dev and ops side of the house but realized this was still a black box to the business side of the house, so we pivoted to what our business actually understood, and that was metrics; today, we focus more on metrics (business and system level), and can fail or succeed fast to achieve our business goals faster than before.
Ernest will go into detail on how a large, mature SaaS organization uses metrics in conjunction with distributed agile development and DevOps to guide their development at scale. How much a product is used, how much each feature is used, and how much value each user gets out of it are key drivers for a business strategy - and it’s all information that’s emitted by a system. He'll show how large companies have invested time in collecting and using these metrics to guide their decisions and influence their culture.
Software Craftsmanship - It's an ImperativeFadi Stephan
The document discusses the history and principles of software craftsmanship. It outlines how software craftsmanship values not only working software but well-crafted software, and focuses on steadily adding value through a community of professionals. The document presents the Manifesto of Software Craftsmanship and its emphasis on technical excellence, good design, automation, clean code, and continuous improvement.
The document discusses testing in Agile environments. It covers traditional vs Agile testing approaches, the role of testers in Agile projects, and specific technical skills for Agile testers. In Agile, testing is iterative and incremental, occurring alongside development. Testers collaborate with developers to help define requirements and acceptance criteria, automate tests, and find bugs through exploratory testing. Their role focuses more on communication and facilitating quality than traditional documentation-heavy testing.
This document provides 10 tips for taking control of software delivery through DevOps practices before it is too late. The tips include over-communicating your DevOps plan, defining the pace of your applications, killing dependencies at all costs, not creating new "legacy" applications, and setting a high bar for new initiatives. An example project is used to illustrate how good DevOps intentions can deteriorate over time due to project pressures. Ensuring your methodology encourages DevOps is emphasized to avoid creating new legacy applications.
Software Craftsmanship VS Software EngineeringAndy Maleh
Software craftsmanship and software engineering both aim to deliver high-quality, reliable software, but differ in their approaches. Software engineering focuses on macro goals and processes, while craftsmanship emphasizes mastering skills through experience. Both are used at Groupon, where engineering practices like architecture, testing and iteration are combined with craftsmanship techniques including apprenticeships and pair programming.
The document discusses applying Scrum principles to manufacturing. It provides examples of how Scrum has been used successfully in manufacturing companies to improve agility, reduce costs, and speed up product development. Specifically, it recommends adopting Scrum teams as lean cells, using contract-first design, shortening supply chains, and keeping manufacturing lines flexible to enable continuous improvement. It addresses common objections to applying Scrum in manufacturing and provides examples of companies that have leveraged agile manufacturing practices.
Matt tesauro Lessons from DevOps: Taking DevOps practices into your AppSec Li...Matt Tesauro
Bruce Lee once said “Don’t get set into one form, adapt it and build your own, and let it grow, be like water“.
AppSec needs to look beyond itself for answers to solving problems since we live in a world of every increasing numbers of apps. Technology and apps have invaded our lives, so how to you lead a security counter-insurgency? One way is to look at the key tenants of DevOps and apply those that make sense to your approach to AppSec. Something has to change as the application landscape is already changing around us.

Software Craftsmanship vs Software Engineering (Lightning Talk)Andy Maleh
The recent emergence of the Software Craftsmanship movement in the last decade has been accompanied with quite a bit of confusion on what the movement is exactly about and whether it adds any value beyond previous software development movements, such as Agile and Software Engineering. In this short talk, Andy Maleh will define Software Craftsmanship, compare and contrast to Software Engineering, and provide examples on how both disciplines are playing out at the Groupon software development environment.
This document discusses ScrumOps, which combines Scrum and DevOps practices. It defines DevOps as enabling organizations to quickly and safely develop, test, deploy, and operate software through collaboration between development and operations teams. Key DevOps principles discussed include continuous integration, delivery, feedback, and improvement. The document recommends practices like infrastructure as code, automation, and measurement to establish a collaborative culture between Dev and Ops.
The world of IT is shifting rapidly towards DevOps with analysts predicting the majority of companies will adopt DevOps practices in the next few years. In fact, in a recent study on DevOps by International Data Corp. (IDC), they believe that DevOps will be adopted (in either practice or discipline) by 80% of Global 1000 organizations by 2019!
Forming a DevOps team seems like a natural step, but the idea of creating a dedicated DevOps team has ignited anger in the community. Why? What's the concern? Is a DevOps team evil? Completely necessary? A necessary Evil?
Join IBM UrbanCode's Eric Minick to learn the pitfalls of creating bad DevOps teams, and successful approaches of good ones. Along the way, we’ll explore other heresies such as using tools to change culture.

Benefits of Agile Software Development for Senior ManagementDavid Updike
This is a presentation to Senior and Executive Managers which is used to explain how Agile Software Development processes and practices benefit them, their organization and their customers.
This document discusses truths and misconceptions about agile software development. It begins by establishing that agile is more than a high-level concept, and discusses differences between traditional project management and agile principles. Key differences between agile methodologies like Scrum and XP are outlined. The document then addresses common misconceptions about agile and Scrum, establishing truths around topics like planning, fixed-date projects, risk management, rework, and the role of metrics and documentation in Scrum.
The document provides an overview of Agile software development using Scrum. It describes Scrum as an Agile framework that focuses on delivering business value through short iterative development cycles called sprints. Key aspects of Scrum include self-organizing cross-functional teams, prioritized product backlogs maintained by a Product Owner, and regular sprint planning, daily standup, review and retrospective meetings facilitated by a Scrum Master.
Presentation about the basics of Agile Methodologies and how they can be applied to Scientific Research. This presentation later evolved into the Agile Research method. June 2008

DevOps and SAFe adoption is not easy. This session will discuss a real world DevOps/SAFe transformation and the lessons learned by exploring how a Fortune 100 company transformed from a traditional software shop to an Agile one.
The document provides an overview of agile development, including its definition, principles, types of agile methodologies, lifecycle, tools, and suitability for different types of projects. Agile development is an iterative approach that emphasizes early delivery of working software, collaboration between self-organizing cross-functional teams, and the ability to rapidly respond to changes in requirements. Some common agile methodologies discussed include Scrum, eXtreme Programming, and Lean Development.
1. Methodologies differ for each project and team, so a single methodology does not fit all. Managers need guidance to help teams create their own methodology using an evidence-based approach.
2. Methodologies have both formal parts like processes and meetings, as well as important informal parts like team collaboration. Simply mixing practices haphazardly is not effective.
3. Pattern languages can help by describing what works and what doesn't for a given context, explaining tradeoffs, and allowing the methodology to evolve with changing needs based on evidence.
The document discusses the concept of risk and risk management process in developing PROTON's Intranet. It identifies 10 risks related to requirements, hardware, skills, performance, attrition, technology change, underestimating size and cost, and organizational decisions. It also lists some risk management best practices and tools like RAD, QA, version control, disaster recovery and business continuity planning.
The document provides an overview of agile development, including its principles, types of agile methods, tools that support agile development, and when projects are well-suited to agile. It defines agile development as an iterative approach performed by self-organizing teams to produce high-quality software through early delivery and response to changing needs. The principles emphasize things like customer satisfaction, frequent delivery, collaboration, trusting motivated individuals, and responding to change.
The document discusses the principles and practices of extreme programming (XP), an agile software development methodology. It outlines 12 core practices of XP including planning games, small releases, simple design, testing, pair programming, and continuous integration. Benefits include frequent feedback, adapting to change, and delivering working software early. Challenges involve customer availability and determining appropriate levels of documentation and planning.
Lean UX integrates UX design into Agile development by following a process of declaring assumptions, creating minimum viable products (MVPs), running experiments with users, and incorporating feedback into subsequent sprints. The process involves cross-functional teams collaborating to understand problems, develop initial solutions, test prototypes with users, analyze results, and refine ideas. User feedback is gathered continuously to guide iterative design improvements within each 2-week sprint cycle.

Agile for (and in) Marketing - An Agile Business Management Community WhitepaperEvan Leybourn
There is a growing trend towards business agility; the adoption of agile and lean practices across the enterprise. This is nowhere more evident than in marketing. Marketing divisions across the world have starting to adopt iterative and adaptive processes while encouraging self-organising teams and empowered individuals.
The Agile Business Management Community is a grassroots organisation dedicated to the development and promotion of agile and lean outside IT. Our members are respected professionals in their fields and span the globe.
These are some of our observations and experiences on agile for (and in) marketing.
Traditional business models are failing to keep up with the needs of the modern economy. While business has never been predictable, technological and cultural change is occurring at faster rates than ever before. In this climate, modern enterprises live or die on their ability to adapt – which is where Business Agility comes in. Business Agility provides a context for organisations to embrace change; changing how to think, changing how to work and changing how to interact.
Whether you’ve heard of Holocracy or Teal Organisations; it seems that lean and agile business models are gaining interest across different business sectors. This presentation will provide engaging and enlightening stories of Agile beyond IT; from lean startups to large enterprises. These will be reinforced with practical approaches for the design and leadership of teams, divisions and businesses across 4 key domains.

Whether you’ve heard of Holocracy or Teal Organisations; it seems that lean and agile business models are gaining interest across different business sectors. This presentation will provide engaging and enlightening stories of Agile beyond IT; from lean startups to large enterprises. These will be reinforced with practical approaches for the design and leadership of teams, divisions and businesses across 4 key domains;
1. The Structure of an Agile Organisation - Efficient, transparent and collaborative techniques to manage cross-functional, self-organising and potentially self-managing teams.
2. You, the Agile Manager - What makes a good agile manager and how do their responsibilities change?
3. Integrated Customer Engagement - Collaboration and communication techniques to build trust and deliver Customer needs efficiently, with minimal waste, and to everyone’s satisfaction.
4. Work, the Agile Way - Managing all types of business functions, from software, HR, finance to legal, by using Just-In-Time planning and incremental or continuous delivery processes.
All too often we’ve been measuring activity and cost, not outcomes and value. And it’s important to understand that an organisation that plans for growth outcomes (without binding a team to a specific output) can fundamentally adapt to a changing market. By creating clearly defined, non-conflicting, outcomes and common working principles senior management can delegate the “how” to their teams, while retaining ownership of the “what” and “why”.
This interactive presentation will help participants define the real outcomes and associated measures for their work and teams. Participants will come to understand that outcomes can be complex, interdependent and occasionally conflicting. Therefore we will create 3 elements;
1. the profile of the outcome,
2. the relationship between outcomes, and
3. the principles that align work across all outcomes
If you need to run a project you've already failedEvan Leybourn
By definition, an IT project is a temporary structure to govern and deliver a complex change (such as a new product or platform) into an organisation. However, to be truly competitive, an organisation needs to be able to deliver a continuous stream of change. Managed properly, this negates the need for a project and the associated cost overheads.
This is fundamentally what #noprojects is. The approach, structure, tactics and techniques available to successfully deliver continuous change. At its core, #noprojects is predicated on the alignment of activities to outcomes, measured by value, constrained by guiding principles and supported by continuous delivery technologies.
This presentation will introduce you to #noprojects. You will learn how to define an outcome and create an Outcome Profile. You will also learn how to manage change within the context of an outcome through the Activity Canvas.
This document appears to be from a workshop on soft skills in software presented by Evan Leybourn. It discusses various aspects of communication, collaboration, and cooperation. Examples include communicating concisely and non-verbally, the cultural aspects of collaboration, and how cooperation requires trust, skills, and negotiated outcomes. Interactive exercises are also referenced to demonstrate these soft skills in practice.

Agile Business Intelligence - course notesEvan Leybourn
The document provides an introduction to agile methods for business intelligence projects. It discusses the Agile Manifesto and lean principles, common agile methods, and key aspects of agile such as iterative design and continuous stakeholder engagement. It also describes types of waste in production workflows and common misconceptions about agile. The document outlines the typical roles in an agile business intelligence team and discusses characteristics like being cross-functional and self-empowered. It provides examples of team roles and differentiates between interested and committed roles. Finally, it discusses Deming's 14 points for lean managers.
This document discusses various contract models for software development projects, including time and materials, outcome-based, fixed cost, fixed scope, and fixed time and scope contracts. It provides examples of each contract type and discusses how to plan, estimate, deliver, and measure when using different contract models. The key message is that different contract types provide different levels of predictability for cost and schedule while balancing flexibility, and that customer collaboration is more important than contracts alone.
Pair trading* is a technique to improve the productivity and quality of stock trading (or any type of financial trading, e.g. commodities). In pair trading, two traders share a single workstation. The trader at the keyboard (usually called the driver) actively trades, while the second trader (called the observer or navigator) is reviewing, advising, thinking through problems and generally sanity checking the first. These two roles switch on a regular basis (e.g. every 1/2 hour). The pairs also swap partners every day.
Pairing is one of the most valuable techniques you can bring your business, yet it is initially counter intuitive. It is hard to convince management that pairing will do anything but double your costs. In actual fact, most empirical studies show a significant increase in quality for a small (15-20%) cost overhead as compared to individuals working independently.
Inbox Zero, is a simple mechanism to prioritise and process a complex set of, unstructured and varied, activities. Defect Zero uses the same idea to manage and resolve defects, technical debt and other un-plannable activities.
Adaptable Engineering: 3D Printing and AgileEvan Leybourn
Agile has been very successful in the software industry, where the cost of change is relatively low; creating an environment for adaptable teams, projects and products. Meanwhile, in other industries, engineering in particular, traditional development approaches hold sway due to the significantly higher cost involved in product change. For an Agile engineering approach to be successful, the cost of change – both in people and fabrication – needs to be reduced. This is where 3D printing technologies come in.
This interactive session will examine many of the issues faced when applying Agile to physical-engineering product development. It will show how 3D printing technologies can decrease the iterative design cycle time, reduce the barrier to entry, and support the creation of highly complex products or prototypes through modular development.
Participate in the real-time development and printing of a product using agile approaches and get a basic understanding of how to use 3D modelling and printing tools. Discover how 3D printing can, and is, being used to develop engineering products.

If you like the ideas raised in this presentation, don't forget to check out my latest book, Directing the Agile Organisation (http://theagiledirector.com/book).
Based on common agile management methods, this presentation will demonstrate the processes and workflows required to manage a Business Intelligence team or project in a flexible, iterative and agile manner. We will also examine the open source technologies that assist in supporting and automating the processes.
These processes draw on the underlying principles of agile and utilises a combination of Scrum, Test Driven Development, Feature Driven Design and XP. These methods can be applied in both a low maturity environment to develop business intelligence capability, or a high maturity environment to encourage greater customer engagement.
This document discusses agile practices at scale and is divided into four domains: 1) The Agile Manager Mindset which emphasizes embracing failure and change. 2) Integrated Customer Engagement. 3) The Structure of an Agile Organization including team-based development and organizational change management. 4) Work the Agile Way including modular design, risk management, and agile metrics like ensuring quality control tests occur each iteration and requirements are estimated and delivered. The document promotes Evan Leybourn's book "Directing the Agile Organization" and provides contact information.
