Doing Agile (or the practices) maps to cycling activities like Leisure, Touring, Mountain or Road Biking. Some people get stuck too much about the practice/activity and not enjoying it when they are just starting out.
Being Agile (internalising the mindset) maps when a cyclist just gets out and ride, no matter the weather conditions or day/time. When this happens, any cycling activity becomes enjoyable as long as one is riding.
Let’s explore how collaborating to achieve a common understanding across our roles should be first and foremost in team settings instead of rushing into delivering work.
How can we better design the user experience of agile adoption?

From Classroom to Zoom - How to Adapt to Our New Virtual WorldAgile Montréal
This year we have had to reinvent ourselves. Gone are in-person interactions, only to be replaced by the cold glow of our computer monitors. The nature of virtual interaction is inherently different than in-person interaction, and this talk aims to explore just that. We look at how you should approach the two in different ways, and we aim to give you the tools and knowledge you need to successfully lead virtual meetings, training, and work-session with others.

Expedite-Plum Consulting: Change from Inside Out-Managing Cultural ChangeExpedite HR
At our April event, a panel chaired by Alison Kilduff and Ben Dowman of Plum Consulting looked at 'change from the inside-out - successfully managing cultural change' at our April event
The document summarizes key points from the book "Execution" by Larry Bossidy and Ram Charan about the importance of execution in business. It discusses that execution is the systematic process of rigorously discussing how to implement strategies and holding people accountable. Effective execution requires the right people, an execution-focused culture, and three core processes: the people process, strategy process, and operations process. The leader plays a critical role in driving execution through their involvement and establishing the right behaviors, culture, and processes to ensure strategies are implemented as planned.
Engage 2016 - Running a collaborative businessRoland Driesen
Do you know what your employees need to collaborate effectively? How do you ask the right questions for needs rather than functionality? Do you know the perceived company culture? Your company culture is the start point for your social business journey. Where do you stand now? Where do you need to go? What are the primary focus areas that would work for you? What approach is right for you? Through our specific developed survey held among all employees at your organization you get a better understanding of the perceived company culture and a better way to asses the collaboration need and current status of collaboration practices. From there on we plan your social business journey. We pick one of four specific flavors from Silverside’s 3G adoption approach to set the course that is right for you. We will demonstrate our social business culture test with findings from a customer, representing their company culture as a person, and the path forward to becoming a social business in the adoption approach suited to this culture.

Gleaning Insight from Information: A Strategy for Understanding Customer ValueEric Peabody
Lean design is predicated on identifying and delivering customer value. These values are deeply rooted within an individual or an organization and difficult to extract, by people trained in the design and construction but not in understanding the complexities of human behavior. To address this need, Taylor Design has evolved its model of practice by teaming a staff of strategists trained in the social sciences with its staff of architects and designers in the delivery of design services.
Revit for Small Projects: Is it worth the effort?Eric Peabody
This document discusses the benefits of using BIM (Building Information Modeling) on small projects. It outlines that BIM can help draw faster with families and keynotes, provide automatic coordination through elevation to plan coordination and drawing set creation. BIM also enables better coordination for projects with complex mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems through 3D modeling. Case studies demonstrate that even on tiny projects, BIM allowed drawing lines faster and using detail components. Larger projects saw benefits of automatic calculations, 3D coordination to prevent errors, and laser scanning for complex renovations. A study of three medical procedure rooms found that increasing BIM use reduced construction costs by up to 15%, change order costs by over 90%, and construction time by
A Formula for LEED Gold: Lab Remodels without Added Project CostsEric Peabody
There have been four LEED Lab Remodels completed in the UC/CSU/CCC systems; three at UCSF and one at UC Davis. This presentation discusses the results of a comparative analysis of the LEED submittals of all four projects and proposes a formula for achieving LEED Gold on lab remodels with minimal additional project costs. The formula we will be presenting is only one credit away from achieving LEED Platinum without significant cost increases. This work validates that sustainability is more tactical than costly. We will also discuss sustainability issues for lab remodels that go beyond current LEED metrics including frugal planning, energy zoning, and building fewer square feet. Most of these issues will apply broadly to other types of interior remodels in existing buildings.
Experimental BIM Use Comparison on Stanford Hospital Cath LabsEric Peabody
This presentation is a cost comparison between three nearly identical projects where the only variable is the use of BIM. The first cath lab was delivered using a traditional CAD approach, the second cath lab used industry standard BIM (modeling objects down to 2"), and the third cath lab modeled everything including studs and outlet boxes. The change order rates dropped to practically nothing but the costs were a bit surprising.
Stanford Hybrid OR - Interventional Radiology + Neurosurgery Eric Peabody
This hybrid operating room combines interventional radiology and neurosurgery with a Siemens bi-plane angiography system at its core. See how the staffing and procedures are set up to use the room for the different modalities. This project was delivered using 3D building information modeling (BIM) which is a process that parallels the work being done in the room itself. We use sophisticated 3D imaging to evaluate the building systems and then surgically remove and replace systems.
The document discusses how Building Information Modeling (BIM) and other technologies can reduce waste and risks in construction projects. It describes how BIM allows for 3D modeling, simulation, clash detection and coordination which can reduce waste in design, fabrication, and construction. By enabling more coordination and collaboration early on through BIM, the risks for architects, contractors and owners are reduced. When risks are reduced for all parties, it leads to lower overall project costs.
The construction industry is one of the only industries with declining productivity. Tools like BIM, IPD, and Lean aim to reverse this trend. Set-based Concurrent Design is a Lean alternative to the traditional iterative design loops and enables projects to be designed 10 to 15 times faster.
Leaning Project Delivery: Altering the Cost = Risk EquationEric Peabody
This document discusses how design and construction technologies can reduce risk and costs in construction projects. It presents how building information modeling (BIM), virtual simulation, 3D coordination, prefabrication, and integrated project delivery can improve efficiency by reducing errors, waste, and unknowns. While these techniques may increase the architect's exposure by taking on more coordination responsibilities, they can decrease overall project risk for owners and contractors, leading to reduced costs. The document argues that greater use of technology in design and construction allows all parties to share risk and realize the benefits of improved workflows and collaboration.

Most of us know Lean, and the emphasis on removing waste to deliver higher value. What’s been largely missing from the advancement of Lean from Japan to the US is the idea of respect for people as a foundation for that work. That will be our focus for today.
Note that this is going to be rapid-fire and is intended to just introduce some thoughts and concepts – if they want to go deeper, they can reach out to any one of us!
Let’s dig right in. Respect has a
Two twin pillars: Respect for people and continuous improvement
Script:
In large part, Toyota Motor Company is viewed as the founders of Lean as a production system. What fewer people know is that Lean thinking originated with a desire to be respectful of people in the Toyoda Automatic Loom works, which was founded in the 1920s.
Sakicchi Toyoda, the founder of Toyoda Loom Works, was frustrated. He thought that the looms were disrespectful to workers because they required people to stand and watch – if a thread broke they had to stop the machine manually and re-thread it to prevent defective cloth product. He wanted to give his workers higher-value jobs and pay them more money.
So, with his engineer and his people, they devised a way to stop the loom automatically. This was a great advance which was patented, licensed to Europe, and provided the funding for the Toyota Motor Manufacturing organization that we know today.
A Lean management system is based in part on tools and quality improvement methods made famous by Toyota in the manufacturing world, such as just-in-time, kaizen, one-piece flow, etc. These techniques helped spawn the “lean manufacturing” revolution.
But tools and techniques are not secret weapon for transforming a business. Toyota’s continued success at implementing these tools stems from a deeper business philosophy based on it’s understanding of people and human motivation. Its success is ultimately based on its ability to cultivate leadership, teams, and culture, to devise strategy, to build supplier relationships, and to maintain a learning organization.
Most attempts to implement lean have been fairly superficial. The reason is that most companies have focused too heavily on tools such as 5S and just-in-time, without understanding lean as an entire system that must permeate an organization’s culture.
Respect for people means different things to different people when we use that word in every day life. It has a very definitive meaning when we’re thinking about Lean.
Engage and empower the people closest to the work to see the current condition and find solutions to problems and standardize what’s working.
Focus on developing leaders & problem solvers.
This all sounds sort of soft, right?
But it’s not just kumbaya – Respect for people also means:
Challenge people. Set high expectations. You will tell people what you think of them when you ask of them something that’s very demanding; you are showing respect.
Hold people accountable. By doing that, you’re respecting their ability to get things done and telling them that you’re giving them work that is respected. The work is worth holding them accountable.
Demand discipline. You are expected to make problems visible. When you have standardized work, you are expected to use it. When you’re tackling a problem, you are expected to involve others and deeply understand the causes before jumping to solution.
Respecting people doesn't necessarily mean you must like them – but you must provide them value and demand the same!
