This updated version of the presentation corrects an error on the summary slide, which should have read: "Staff liquidity – allocate high skilled, multi-skilled staff after less flexible staff"
In traditional business enterprises, supervisors and managers need to get approval for any decision. This causes delay and stagnation. Using holacracy, decisions are made based on collaboration with peers who have insight and knowledge of the problem and the solution. Information can be extracted to make a sound business decision. This engages everyone to take ownership of the problem so that business can succeed without delay. Management sets the boundaries and limitations so that the organization is not placed into jeopardy. This a new way of thinking so that the human talent is engaged and empowered, companies are more profitable, and customers are satisfied with the improve delivery of service or output of product. In the health and safety consulting business, our staff of CIHs and CSPs define the problems and develop the solutions so that business can be more sustainable by lowering their risk and limiting their liability. It also helps meet regulatory obligations and insurance requirements.
How Kanban, Lean and Agile helped us to save a hospital in Bandung, Indonesia. Twice!
As an IT consultant with a lot of kanban, lean and agile experience I was interested to see if I could use that knowledge when working for the Salvation Army Health Foundation in Indonesia.
I got ample opportunity to try.
In this talk I will describe how the basic ideas of Kanban, Lean and Agile helped us to save a hospital from bankruptcy (or worse!). Twice.
In using these principles and ideas in a total different setting I gained a much deeper understanding of them, and also needed to find other ways to describe and apply the practices I've taken for granted in "our" culture and setting.

Сегодня целеустремленные сотрудники требуют от организаций осмысленных и интересных задач, а заказчики — качественных продуктов и услуг. Для коммерческих компаний лозунг «адаптируйся или умри» никогда не был столь актуальным. Самоорганизация широко используется как способ достижения гибкости. Но как применить ее ко всей организации и как убедиться в том, что результат достигнут и организация стала эффективной? Как перейти от делегирования к распределенной ответственности? И от процедур к прозрачной оценке эффективности?
Цель этого доклада — дать представление о том, как Холакратия может помочь построить самоорганизующуюся и целеустремленную компанию.
Holacracy® can be described as an ‘operating system’ for organizations. An alternative for the traditional hierarchy. It supports purpose-driven organizations with structured and efficient meetings, clarity on roles and how decisions are made and how power is distributed. With Holacracy anyone from anywhere in the organization can rapidly process any tension into positive change. It’s an agile approach to organizational governance and development.

33 Expert Tips on the Social Media Trends You Should Watch Out for in 2017Constant Contact
Social media is one of the most important marketing tools your small business has to reach your audience because that’s where your customers spend their time.
But, as a small business owner, do you really have the time to post multiple times on multiple networks every day or keep up with the changes in social media marketing trends? According to one study, 64% of small businesses monitor their business social media marketing once a week!
You can be successful on social media and save time this year if you focus only on the networks and trends that work and appeal to your audience. To make it easier on you, we decided to seek advice from 33 experts. We asked them: What is the one social media trend small businesses and marketers should watch out for in 2017?

Presents an overview of the _Kanban Litmus Test_, a series of four questions that go to the heart of an organisation's use of Kanban. Essential knowledge for coaches, managers and practitioners alike to ensure you realise all of Kanban's promised benefits.
Kanban starts with the processes, roles and policies you're using now. This means you can be using the Kanban Method but not yet have a process that effectively limits work in progress, let alone brings all the expected benefits of Kanban such as improved lead times, throughput and quality. How then do you know if you are really applying Kanban well? The answer is the _Litmus Test_ a series of 4 questions (and supplementaries) that drills into the way your organisation is using Kanban. This presentation will explain what the Litmus Test is and how it can guide adopters of the method to move step by step through the elements. The Litmus Test links many aspects of Kanban together, such as the nature of true kanban systems, the reasons and business benefits of deferred commitment, the opportunities for increasing customer satisfaction through effective forecasting and classes of service, and the new business models opened up by deep Kanban implementations.
This talk highlights one of the lesser known aspects of Kanban, described in *Essential Kanban Condensed*, the French edition of which became available in the week of the conference - see http://leankanban.com/frguide

Powering New Digital Experiences With Content ModelingRebecca Deery
Our clients are at the forefront of digital transformation, and our company leads the way in making those transformations possible. But who creates the strategy behind the content that we are all here to transform? Content strategists! In partnership with UX, Analytics, and of course our endlessly creative developers. It's not always easy to find a way to combine our expertise and make it all happen for our clients—especially when we are scattered across the globe. We will share how content modeling has become the intersection that enables us all to realize the future of content development. We'll share the ways that Content Modeling is transforming our practice by making seamless, new, data-driven, omni-channel experiences a reality. We will review/define Content Modeling terms, its purpose, and especially its inter-disciplinary demands. We'll present use cases showing how content modeling brings to life cutting-edge and sustainable, cross-channel digital experiences.
Time is an Asset, Delay is a Cost: Applying qualitative and quantitative analysis for competitive advantage
abstract
In competitive product development, time often trumps cost and value. While cost of delay is now a part of our vocabulary, how to use it is less understood. Hear the historical context of time-agility strategies, have equations and qualitative approaches demystified - make more effective decisions.
description
While cost of delay has become a fashionable topic for Agile practitioners, agreement as to the correct way to apply it has been harder to find. This presentation will look to the historical use of time and agility to create winning strategies. It examines proposals to quantify cost of delay in product management contexts, and explains the justifications for the resulting formulae and archetypes - where appropriate giving the limitation of their applicability and when to apply different approaches. Finally the presentation looks to the synthesis of these ideas to use quantitative calculations and qualitative analysis in formulating product investment and development strategies.

Building Contextual Personas through Scenario Planning (PCTO 2016)Jesse Emmanuel Rosario
Personas are an integral part of the User Experience (UX) design process. They provide insights on who our users are, their habits, and the goals relative to the product being built.
Although they put a face and a story to multiple users, traditional personas have yet to take the leap from being behaviourally-driven artifacts to one that is sensitive to a product/service's business context/futures as well.
If successful products are the result of a product and market “fit”, can we build personas that deliver both behavioural and business insight? Can strategic foresight methods help? If so, how?

Portfolio management: Balancing Irrefutable Demand with Cost of Delay #agilec...Andy Carmichael
Portfolio management is about balancing and hedging risk, as opportunities or threats are assessed, positions reviewed, and investment or dis-investment decisions are made. Why then is the focus of information flowing to portfolio managers primarily about schedule, scope and budget rather than value realisation? Why is success still judged by on-time-on-scope-on-budget rather than investment criteria such as yield and duration?
This presentation explores one reason: that the paradigm of the project, with its (usually annual) cycle of proposal, plan, implementation and delivery, is over-constrained for solving the complex domain where many portfolio managers operate – multiple overlapping products in competitive markets. Projects do not facilitate the dynamic monitoring of product applicability and profitability. Where “small change” processes are introduced to enable greater responsiveness, the cost and impact of such work may not even be visible at portfolio-management level. The presentation looks at the alternative paradigm of “value-flow”, particularly its realisation in Lean and Kanban approaches. It explains the concept of a kanban system and how it can be applied at product/programme level, covering many services that deliver value within the organisation and to its customers. It explains “irrefutable demand” – the perception that individual services receive work requests that cannot be refused – and how this works against flow, predictable deliveries and ultimately productivity. The primacy of time in investment decision-making is also stressed, particularly the importance of reducing “Lead Time” to reduce risk, and of understanding “cost of delay” as an economic basis for rational work scheduling.
User Experience is the result of the evolution of a discipline based on Frederick Taylor’s turn-of-the-20th-century book, The Principles of Scientific Management (1911).
My story tells,
1) How User Experience has evolved as the integration of multiple disciplines
2) How user’s needs and expectations are the keystones of successful projects and products.
3) What we can all do to make UX even better

Micro Manchester Meetup: "The Seven (More) Deadly Sins of Microservices"Daniel Bryant
There is trouble brewing in the land of microservices – today’s shiny technology is tomorrow’s legacy, and there is concern that we will all be dealing with spaghetti services in 2018…
It is often a sign of an architectural approach’s maturity that in addition to the emergence of well established principles and practices, that anti-patterns also begin to be identified and classified. In this talk we introduce the 2016 edition of the seven deadly sins that if left unchecked could easily ruin your next microservices project…
Similar to LKCE16 - Irrefutable Demand by Andy Carmichael (20)
Companies are multiplying initiatives to evolve their organization and ways of working to cope with the new challenges of competitive advantage – including how to leverage the potential of digital technologies. These efforts go by various names – Lean and Agile are the most popular, but we also hear about holacracy, the polycratic organization and exponential organizations. Beyond the name tags and labels, the real issue is a revolution in the role of management. Without this revolution, the new technologies don’t deliver on their promise, the organization just gets more complicated when the Agile paraphernalia is added on top of the structure and processes -- and productivity keeps declining while people disengage. Drawing on his contribution to the development of organization theory and his consulting work with more than 500 organizations, Yves Morieux will discuss the practical role of managers, their duties and ways to add value for the new organization to create profitable growth.
Based on empiricism and many case studies, the Kanban Maturity Model offers organizations pragmatic guidance about which of about 150 sub-practices within the Kanban method are aligned with their organizational maturity levels. It maps those practices to observable business outcomes using seven levels of maturity and aids evolution of processes. When it comes to evolution, Wardley Maps can show the state of evolution of components within a value stream in relation to a predefined anchor and helps with gaining situational awareness. In my talk I will show how Wardley Maps and the Kanban Maturity Model overlap and how you can use both in combination to assess how to choose appropriate methods and practices for the context you’re in.
Most companies claiming to, or wanting to, be agile, start at the team level. Often this involves adopting a model or framework that either only has those parts, or ignoring the Program and Stategy level changes. At best this inspires a change journey, but more often this yields little impact on the long term business metrics. In this session I will draw in my different experiences, as a Business Manager, Product Lead, and Coach designing effective orgs at Spotify, to demonstrate how the 3 lenses of Systems, Science and Sapiens, help in gather broader perspective, which ultimately leads to more effective, longer lasting, impact.

At Pushwoosh, we struggled to implement WIP limits for Upstream. Product managers generated tons of new(very important) features, queue before downstream development was full. Even though we had regular replenishment meetings where product managers and business picked things we should do next, it didn’ t help much.Managers were constantly fighting with each other, behind - the - scenes games and manipulations took place from time to time.Decisions were based on how convincing and impressive features’ presentation were or because someone worked out a deal with decision makers.At the same time, our CEO was often dissatisfied with the fact that improvements / features he requested were not implemented. On top of that, our development team had a conflict with the product team since PMs blamed developers that they cannot fulfil all their requests, while developers complained that the product team tries to push their features to development, no matter what, bypassing all agreements and processes.

Wer hat dies nicht auch schon erlebt – jedes Jahr findet sie statt – die Jahresplanung der Unternehmung. Ziele, die von „Oben“ vorgegeben werden, von der „Mitte“ mit konkreten Maßnahmen unterfüttert werden, welche wiederum zu einem Jahres-Portfolio führen, welches „Unten“ nur noch umsetzen muss.
Und dabei ist man doch soooo agil! < /br>
Nun ja, der Weg ist nie leicht.REWE Digital hat im letzten Jahr ein paar Veränderungen vorgenommen und organisiert inzwischen zum Beispiel ihr Portfolio mit Kanban.In unserem Erfahrungsbericht wollen wir unseren Weg von der Top - Down Jahres - & Portfolioplanung hinzu einer Bottom - Up und schließlich rollierenden Portfolioplanung teilen.
Das zweite Veränderungsprinzip von Kanban ('Vereinbare evolutionäre Prozessverbesserungen') mag den Eindruck erwecken, dass ein Mandat für eine Kanban-Initiative - sobald einmal vereinbart - verlässlich und stabil ist. Dieser Vortrag beleuchtet Situationen, in denen diese Annahme nicht gilt. Solche Situationen können unter anderem dann entstehen, wenn ein Mandat unwissentlich auf einer Illusion von Verständnis (etwa durch gemeinsam verwendete und verschieden interpretierte Vokabeln) beruht hat und diese Illusion im Laufe der Zeit offensichtlich wird. Der Vortrag nennt mögliche Konsequenzen und betont die Notwendigkeit einer ständigen und gleichzeitig ethisch begründeten Suche nach einem immer wieder neuen Mandat für Kanban. Er beschreibt den Umgang mit solchen Situationen aus der Erfahrungswelt des Vortragenden; eine Vielzahl von Anekdoten illustriert dabei mögliche Symptome eines fehlenden Mandats, ethische Spannungsfelder und auf leisen Sohlen wiederentdeckte Mandate in der Praxis.

Some companies motivate people with perks, ultimately draining motivation. Here’s a scientific explanation & some hands-on options for enabling true motivation.
This type is called autonomous motivation(AM).It’ s the inner engine that enables employees to produce exceptional results, act as intrapreneurs & handle stiff challenges with grace.Research shows, AM shouldn’ t be confused with intrinsic motivation or fun. < /br> High AM results in a reduced operational risk, as it lowers the probability of work - related accidents & decreases the error rate.An increased AM will lead to healthier employees & improve outcome quality.Yet, the most important effect: it enables people to think & work productively in complex contexts. < /br> I’ ll speak about the psychology of motivation & its 3 enablers.True agility, as it is embodied in the agile principles, spurs these 3 enablers.When they’ re mishandled, though, highly motivated teams can turn into passive groups of people who don’ t mind producing waste.
The Kanban Maturity Model democratizes successful Agile transformation. It enables faster, better results without the high costs and extreme failure rate associated with the conventional path to Agile.

Regardless of your starting conditions, the Kanban Maturity Model can help you improve collaboration, trust, team work, service delivery, customer satisfaction, business agility, risk management and economic performance. David’s talk explains how KMM helps you understand your context and choose appropriate Kanban practices. Your circumstances are unique. You need pragmatic, actionable, evidence-based guidance that works. The KMM codifies a decade of Kanban coaching experience and delivers it in a consumable package that will democratize business agility. KMM: successful evolutionary change for professional service businesses of every size and maturity level.

In 2017 we set out to become 'the best and coolest DevOps team in Switzerland'. Our ambition for the next three year was, and still is, to:
* reduce the number of critical incidents by 50 % every year
* reduce the cost for centralised quality assurance by 60 %
* reduce the amount of central leadership positions to 5 %
'We' means a team of approx 1.400 people working in software development in a large complex organisation, a leading telecommunications provider in Switzerland.
This is an experience report of our continuous transformation.
Das Wertschriftenabwicklungsvolumen der wichtigsten Kantonalbank in der Schweiz hat sich in den letzten drei Jahren beinahe verdoppelt. Im Backoffice hatte man sich zum Ziel gesetzt, diesen Anstieg ohne zusätzliche Ressourcen zu meistern. Dieses ambitionierte Ziel war der Startschuss einer Reise auf dem Pfad der kontinuierlichen Verbesserung. Innovationen zielgerichteter und schneller umsetzen zu können war die Motivation, die Grundprinzipien von Kanban waren der Kompass. Mit einem Rucksack voller Leidenschaft wurde gestartet zu neuen Denkweisen, zu eigenverantwortlichem Handeln und inspirierender Zusammenarbeit. Mit Erfolg!
Starting in early 2019 our stakeholders told us that delivering two epics per week is way too low. We then did a deep analysis of our problems using systems mappings and we derived actions from it. In my talk we take a look at these systems mappings, the derived actions, and their effects by using real data of our three level Kanban system. On our way towards operational excellence it is surprising which elements have an impact on WIP, throughput, cycle time and how this affects operating costs and the value we deliver to our customers.

Um die eigenen Leadership-Fähigkeiten auszubauen und selbst Führung für sich und andere zu übernehmen, gibt es einen Dschungel an Optionen. Das macht es nicht leichter, seinen eigenen Weg zu Wirksamkeit zu finden. Da stellt sich die Frage, auf welche konkreten Praktiken man sich dabei konzentrieren kann. So entstand die Idee, die sechs Kanban-Praktiken, die meistens auf Teams, per Portfolio-Kanban oder bezogen auf die ganze Organsiation angewendet werden, aus dem Blickwinkel der Selbstführung zu betrachten. Dieser Vortrag vermittelt Möglichkeiten, wie sich die sechs Kanban-Praktiken als Inspiration für wirksame (Selbst-)Führung nutzen lassen.

Piloting Scrum teams in enterprise usually goes pretty well. You isolate your best people in dedicated teams focusing on the same new product without any interruption. You have demo sessions in the spotlight of top management every two weeks. How can it possibly go wrong?
The problem begins when the management asks you to scale your success through the rest of the company.You then learn it the hard way that Scrum of Scrum is not enough, Spotify model is chaotic, SAFe is too much and LeSS is too ideal.You were told Agile is a mindset and you need to create your own blueprint but you are lost in the ocean of scaled agile frameworks.
This talk tells our story of how we put together a set of fundamental tools in The House of Enterprise Agility to help our enterprise client improve their business agility. Many of them have very little to do with information technology.If you are looking for inspiration to create your own enterprise agile blueprint, this talk might interest you.
Immer mehr Organisationen setzen Flight Levels als ein Denkmodell ein, damit das Unternehmen agil am Markt agieren kann.

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.
Specific ServPoints should be tailored for restaurants in all food service segments. Your ServPoints should be the centerpiece of brand delivery training (guest service) and align with your brand position and marketing initiatives, especially in high-labor-cost conditions.
