Team Topologies in action - early results from industry - DOES London Virtual...Matthew Skelton
A talk given at DevOps Enterprise Summit Virtual 2020
---
Since the book Team Topologies was published in 2019, organizations around the world have started to adopt Team Topologies principles and practices like Stream-aligned teams, modern platforms, well-defined team interactions, and team cognitive load as a key driver for fast software delivery and operations.
We will look at examples from these organizations:
* Gjensidige Insurance, a leading Nordic insurance company with 4000 employees and business in the Nordic and Baltic countries, uses the four fundamental team types to clarify team responsibilities and interactions and is moving towards several “thinnest viable platforms” with Stream-aligned teams as internal customers
* PureGym is Britain’s largest gym chain - the first to gain over 1 million members. As PureGym expanded, so did the need for software to enable their members to book and manage gym sessions. Since 2019, PureGym has re-aligned its teams and team interactions based on Team Topologies patterns, helping to scale the engineering teams and improve flow.
* uSwitch / RVU, one of the UK’s leading consumer price comparison websites, has grown a modern platform from scratch, allowing stream-aligned teams to focus on consumers needs, offloading infrastructure provisioning concerns to the platform which also provides cross-cutting services around scalability, security and data management
* Visma is one of the leading software development companies in Europe with nearly 1 million customers in 21 countries. Team Topologies has helped to define and accelerate a transformation begun in 2015 to improve service ownership and speed of changes.
* Wealth Wizards is a UK company making financial advice affordable and accessible to everyone through online tools and apps. The engineering division at Wealth Wizards has used the Team Topologies ideas around team cognitive load to help right-size their teams and align teams to the most important flows of business change.
For each of these examples, we explore how the ideas and patterns in Team Topologies were useful to the organization and the results of the changes.

Comment intégrer l'UX ( user experience ) dans les projets agiles ( exemple scrum ) ?
Workshop organisé par MB alliance en partenariat avec Jasmin Hall Coworking Space.
Management 3.0 : vers des leaders plus « agiles »? A l'occasion d'une rencontre de l'incubateur TheArk, Prof. Jean-Pierre Rey évoque cette question importante à l'heure ou faire preuve « d’agilité managériale » est l’une des tendances de la nouvelle gestion des entreprises et des start-up.
Understanding Roles on an Agile ProjectKent McDonald
The ideal agile team is a self organizing, dedicated, cross functional group that has all the skills necessary to deliver a solution that solves their customer’s problem. As a result, the list of roles on an agile team is fairly short generally consisting of roles such as Scrum Master, Product Owner, and the Team. Given all that, many project managers wonder where they fit in. They may act as the Product Owner if they have the skill set and decision making authority to determine what the product should contain. They may become the Scrum Master if they are able to practice servant leadership and act as a coach and facilitator. They may become part of the team and help develop or test. They may focus on coordinating the efforts of multiple agile teams to support the broader goals of a large program. They may not be a good fit for an agile environment at all. Join Kent McDonald as he describes the Product Owner and Scrum Master roles in an agile environment and discusses the various ways that project managers can assess their skill sets and project characteristics to determine where they fit into the picture.
Petit-déjeuner OCTO Technology - Vers l'enteprise AgileOCTO Technology
Vous pouvez revoir ce petit-déjeuner sur notre webTV OCTO à l'adresse suivante http://tv.octo.com/videos/petit-dejeuner-octo-technology-vers-lentreprise-agile/
Une fois passées les premières expérimentations sur les méthodes agiles, une question s’impose de façon récurrente : comment changer d'échelle et devenir une entreprise Agile ?
Bien sûr, il ne s'agit pas de savoir lancer un énième projet en Scrum mais plutôt de répondre aux questions suivantes :
Qu’est ce qu’une entreprise Agile ?
L'entreprise Agile chez moi, est-ce que cela fait sens ? Jusqu’où dois-je ou puis-je aller ?
Comment assurer un pilotage de mon portefeuille projets et de mes budgets ?
Comment engager cette transformation? Quels sont les écueils à éviter ?
En répondant à ces questions, OCTO vous propose un chemin.
Nous ne parlerons pas directement de Scrum, Software Craftsmanship, Lean Startup, ou autre Devops, mais bien de la manière de créer une alchimie réunissant ces ingrédients au travers de la gouvernance, de l'organisation, des pratiques de management et de la culture d’entreprise.
Au delà du partage des bonnes pratiques et des Frameworks d'entreprise, ce petit déjeuner sera l'occasion confronter les retours d’expérience chez nos clients dans différents domaines (banque, eCommerce, télécoms, pure players du web).
La deuxième partie de ce petit déjeuner réunira des acteurs de la transformation agile chez Société Générale et Viadeo autour d'une table ronde.
Avec ce petit déjeuner, nous avons l'ambition de vous fournir une base de réflexion et d'action pour transformer votre organisation en entreprise apprenante.
Ce séminaire s’adresse à tous ceux qui ont envie d’aller plus loin sur l'agilité : marketing, chefs de produits, architectes, geeks, managers ou responsables DSI.
Dynamisez vos réunions grâce à la facilitation - Blog reussir-son-entreprise.frNovup
La « facilitation » pour rendre les choses plus simple et faire des salariés des acteurs du changement.
C'est aussi révéler et optimiser les leviers de l’intelligence collective pour :
- rendre plus facile le travail collaboratif d’un groupe
- aider le collectif à construire des solutions par lui-même
En résumé, la facilitation c'est :
- animer : ateliers créatifs, ludiques et productifs
- comprendre : ré impliquer et remotiver les personnes
- construire : répondre aux enjeux de l’entreprise
- diagnostiquer : retrouver l’efficacité et le plaisir au travail
Bienvenue aux personnes qui sentent qu’il est temps d’amorcer une transformation en douceur et en profondeur dans une organisation, mais ne savent pas comment s’y prendre.
Cette histoire sera contée du point de vue d'un amateur de théâtre d'improvisation, discipline que je pratique depuis 2010. Je vous raconterai ainsi comment j'ai mis à profit les principes de l'improvisation, au service d'une diffusion de l'agilité, par exemple chez un leader des télécommunications.
Vous repartirez avec quelques techniques originales pour enclencher un changement quel que soit votre niveau hiérarchique. Je vous révélerai les techniques issues du théâtre d'improvisation que j'ai transposées dans ces contextes incertains afin de continuer d'avancer efficacement.
Ce talk inédit sera la version longue et interactive, de l'histoire publiée dans Rupture Douce saison 3.
Keynote Agile Tour Montpellier - Scaling AgilityLaurent Sarrazin
Avec sa "Petite Poucette", Michel SERRE nous a (r)éveillé sur une réalité du 21ème siècle : la complexité est omniprésente. Elle est même exponentielle, si bien qu'elle nous fait vivre un troisième chamboulement dans l'évolution de l'humanité. Qu'on le veuille ou non, cette situation met un terme à un cycle : l'hégémonie des systèmes prédictifs. So ... what's next ? Et bien, il existe une proposition déjà bien rodée : l'agilité, qui se présente comme une solution éprouvée pour accueillir et profiter de la complexité du 21ème siècle. Vous, qui souhaitez très probablement jouer un rôle dans l'économie actuelle et celle de demain, je viens vous proposer quelques clés pour que vous vous invitiez au mariage du (21ème) siècle : celui de la complexité et de l'agilité... Bien sûr, vous êtes aussi libre de nourrir les étagères de Darwin (vous savez, celles où il collectionnait les espèces disparues ;)".
Les 10 buzzwords du hipster agile - Session Agile FranceChristopher Parola
Présentation réalisée dans le cadre d'Agile France : http://2014.conference-agile.fr/sessions/les-dix-buzzwords-du-hipster-agile.html
Depuis ces douze derniers mois, trop de buzzwords utilisés à contre sens à la machine à café défrisent nos moustaches de Hipsters Agiles.
On les a toutes entendues :
"On est hyper agile, on sait monter une VM en deux jours" "On est agile depuis longtemps, mais on n'appelait pas ça comme ça" "Mon MVP, c'est la somme de mes MMF de l'itération zéro" "L'agile dans un grand groupe ? Facile, il suffit de faire des Feature Teams"
Toute cette jargonite peut vous aider à briller en société, mais employés à mauvais escient, ils peuvent être à l'origine de contre sens désastreux pour les projets.
Nous essaierons en toute humilité - mais non sans prétention - de ré expliquer l'origine de ces notions en s'appuyant sur des sources historiques et concrètes.
Et vous, c'est quoi vos buzzwords ?

Good practices to accelerate agile team knowledge sharing by Mikhail PoduretsLuxoftAgilePractice
Next webinars: http://www.luxoft.com/agile-lean-webinars-schedule
Video: https://youtu.be/LfmCUxfk988
We all are the knowledge workers. When we manage, write code, test code, create architecture or plan the project we work more with our brains rather than with our hands. In this case the availability of knowledge and expertise, the understanding of team members’ experiences, competences and commitments is vital for the project success.
This webinar covers the ways to better knowledge sharing:
* Tacit and explicit knowledge
* Good practices for Agile documentation
* Practices to make knowledge explicit like code review, pair programming and the community of practice
* Information refrigerators and radiators

Building shared understanding in a scaled and distributed Agile environment is a challenge. The big picture view of a product is often lost, team members in one location are not aware of activities in other locations, and everyone is using their own standards – all while common misunderstandings of the User Story concept create an even bigger mess.
At Luxoft Agile Practice, we have developed a special tool for discussing and documenting User Stories. We call it User Story Canvas.
From this presentation of my webinar you will find out about:
Walt Disney Model for creative thinking and effective conversations - Think out of the box, apply your dreams onto practice and mitigate risks
Cartesian Coordinates technique for decision-making - Explore the idea from various sides to achieve better results
Pro-Con Analysis of the situation - What are the benefits and disadvantages?
COIN and STAR feedback models - How to give feedback that people listen to it?
Gradients of Consensus - There are different Yes’s and various No’s

Михаил Подурец. Почему Agile не работает (на самом деле нет). Agiledays2017LuxoftAgilePractice
Каждый уважающий себя Agile-coach рано или поздно должен высказаться на эту тему:
— АААА! Оно у нас не работает
— Ваш Скрам у нас невозможен
— Как вы предлагаете делать нам интеграционное тестирование внутри спринта, если оно занимает месяц!? О_о
Спокойно! На докладе мы разберем, почему оно не работает, и как на самом деле оно должно работать.
Презентация с доклада на AgileDays 2017. Скоро будет видео
Что такое групповая динамика и зачем про нее знать фасилитатору?LuxoftAgilePractice
Бывала ли у вас такая ситуация с командой, когда вы не понимали, чем вызван спад ее производительности или возросшее количество внутрикомандных конфликтов? На прошлой неделе еще все дружно работали, а на этой начался какой-то разлад и шатание.
Одной из причин такой метаморфозы может быть переход команды из стадии формирования в стадию штормления. Как это определить и что с этим делать, мы рассмотрим на вебинаре на примере модели командной динамики Брюса Такмана.
Модель Такмана - это, конечно, не единственный способ описания процессов, которые происходят с командой, компанией или социумом в целом. Для рассмотрения более глубокий, экзистенциальных потоков изменений можно использовать модель Спиральной Динамики. Эта модель может ответить не только на философские, но и на такие утилитарные вопросы как:
В чем причина бюрократии на проекте или в компании?
Каким сотрудникам будет сложно работать в Agile среде?
Почему участники одной команды могут действовать против друг друга и напоминать коллектив из басни “лебедь, рак и щука”?
Каким руководителям сложно увольнять сотрудникам и проводить дисциплинарные беседы с подчиненными?
Каким командам подойдет и принесет пользу Скрам фреймворк.
На вебинаре мы детально, но быстро, разберем две вышеперечисленные модели и еще один подход, который помогает последовательно сформировать команду из группы специалистов.

Презентация к вебинару - https://youtu.be/VqarmllTKD4
Вебинар из серии вебинаров ICAgile Agile Team Facilitation, которая состоит из 7 вебинаров о фасилитации Agile команд. Будем рассматривать техники, которые помогают командам проводить совместные обсуждение и принимать решения.
О чем узнаете на вебинаре?
2 техники для “обсуждения-дискусcии", они обе хорошо подойдут как для малых (4-5 человек) так и для больших (12-14 человек) команд. Плюсы и минусы этих техник, особенности и возможности их трансформации под ваши рабочие условия.
2 техники для “обсуждения-обратной связи". Одна из них довольно распространенная и она мне не очень нравится своей банальностью, а вторую вы вряд ли знаете, она интереснее, но и сложнее в применении.
1 техника для “обсуждения-анализа”, называется “Декартовы Координаты”, часто применяется в индивидуальном коучинге, но в 99% упускается одна интересная деталь при ее использовании, на вебинаре я про нее расскажу.
2 техники для голосования, про точко-голосование вы все, конечно, уже в курсе, я расскажу еще две простые техники, может, они вам тоже знакомы. Я бы хотела больше остановиться даже не на самих техниках, а на том, как можно манипулировать будущими результатами голосования еще до самого голосования.
Продолжая тему манипуляций, мы рассмотрим валидность мажоритарного способа принятия решений и познакомимся с другими, возможно, более подходящими для ваших команд, подходами.

Третий вебинар из серии вебинаров ICAgile Agile Team Facilitation, которая состоит из 7 вебинаров о фасилитации Agile команд. Будем рассматривать техники и инструменты, которые повышают уровень сотрудничества в команде. Поговорим про особенности их применения, случаи, когда они работают, а когда нет.
Сопротивление изменениям. Как помочь команде пережить процессную трансформацию.LuxoftAgilePractice
В своей работе Agile коуча я часто сталкиваюсь не с тем, что какая-то практика не работает или какой-то фреймворк не приносит пользы, а с тем, что команда не хочет пробовать ничего нового, особенно если "особых проблем на проекте нет". Если нет проблем - стоит искать возможности. Мир (и особенно IT область) постоянно меняется. "Чтобы оставаться на месте, нужно бежать, а чтобы двигаться немного вперед, нужно бежать в два раза быстрее" Льюис Кэрролл.
В своем докладе я рассмотрю коучинговые и фасилитационные подходы, которые помогает мне уговорить/убедить команду попробовать новые практики и которые также снижают травматичность перемен для участников команд.
Presentation of webinar "Overview of Function Point Analysis"
On this webinar we investigated on a very high-level estimation in function points. It is introductory webinar and it provides basics on this estimation method. During the webinar we went over following topics:
Theoretical information on FP (Project estimation model, History, Concept, Pro and Con);
Practical information of FP (Application Boundary, Type of count, Application Elements and transactions, Formulas, Non-functional requirements);
Examples and Exercises;
Next steps and recommended materials.
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.

Facilitation & Facilitator Stance
https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/recording-webinar-facilitation-facilitator-stance-svetlana
Facilitation
is a set of activities that helps a group of people to understand their common objectives
and assists them to achieve it within a reasonable time box and without
destructive confrontations.
Facilitator
is someone who helps a group of people understand their common objectives and
assists them to plan how to achieve these objectives; in doing so, the facilitator remains
"neutral" meaning he/she does not take a particular position in the discussion
