INNOVATION ROOTS | Webinar | Kanban Management Professional to Create Value, ...Innovation Roots
Session Title : Kanban Management Professional to Create Value, Create Service
Session Overview:
The purpose of your organisation is to create customers! Everything you do at work directly or indirectly affects the flow of value to the consumers of that work, and the likelihood they will become, stay, or stop being customers. We need to take the idea that knowledge work is a service seriously! This webinar introduces one of the key foundations of being a successful Kanban Management Professional, seeing and improving the network of services that enables your organisation to deliver value to customers.
Kanban defines three Service Delivery Principles that focus on this idea, and we'll look at them in more detail in this webinar. Thinking about the nature of the services we delivery, who we deliver them to, and what makes them fit for the customer's purpose, breaks through the purely procedural aspects of process to the motivations for, and mechanisms to, continually improve the way we work. We'll see that flow efficiency and lead time are an integral part of how customers experience our work.
This webinar introduces you to one of the elements of the Kanban Lens, as well as Kanban's principles and general practices. It will also set you on the road to find out more, and possibly to become a Kanban Management Professional (KMP).
Six Steps Towards Self Learning Teams and OrganizationsAndy Cleff
A framework that will propel your teams and organization on a path of self-learning and growth:
1. How to build an inventory of skills to sustain high performance
2. How to visualize the current and future states of the team skill set
3. How to prioritize "the learning backlog" and create conditions conducive to self-learning
4. Building learning communities at scale
5. How to measure outcomes of this experiment, to inspect and adapt the changing needs of the team and the organization
6. And how to making it all visible and amplify a culture of organizational learning
Talk given at Confoo16: Too many teams are working themselves to the bone day after day with no relief in sight. Too often, this unsustainable pace becomes permanent and work continues to pile on top of everything that's already in progress. Julia will share how Kanban helped teams at TBS and F5 Networks deliver more, reduce stress and tame the craziness of the new normal. Learn concepts you can adapt and apply to your context to make the everyday better!
The Fishbone (aka Cause & Effect or Ishikawa) Diagram is a seemingly simple method of conducting structured brainstorming around the root cause of a process problem. So why is it so hard to get it right? In this 1-hour Introductory Webinar we'll walk through some classic ways to build a Fishbone Diagram, we'll show you some of the common missteps and we'll provide examples of what they look like when they're properly executed. Join us for a guided tour of the Fishbone!
A Great Idea Isn't Enough for Successful Change - FinalKaiNexus
Presented by Mark Jaben, M.D., author of the book "Free the Brain"
Maybe you had expected more. Maybe it went ok, but you’d like it to go smoother. Maybe its gone well and you want to understand about how that happened for next time. Maybe you’d like change to be less of a hassle.
If so, this webinar is for you.
As a result of this webinar, you will understand:
Change is a verb, not a noun
The fundamental unit of change
Why your belief about what’s going on is not the result of what you think.
Why conflict is what you should expect and what you actually need for successful change
The choice to resist or engage is not an analytical one, so why approach it that way.
We are not wired to resist; we are wired to succeed.
An ideal change must work AND be workable; judging each uses different functions in the brain.

Why Are We Stuck? Getting Agile Teams On The Path To Continuous ImprovementAgile Velocity
When things are going well, it is difficult to find motivation to go from good to great.
As an Agile leader, it’s important to be able to identify the symptoms your team or team-of-teams start to exhibit when they get stuck – when their momentum for positive growth and change stalls or plateaus – and what to do about it.
Presented at Global Scrum Gathering Minneapolis, this session was a highly interactive workshop with group discussions, table talks and concept centers that provided you with a toolbox to identify symptoms of a stuck team, determine why they are stuck, activities to get them unstuck and highlight potential dysfunctions and over-correction patterns.

What learn by doing does not mean – Slides from the keynote delivered minutes ago by LEI CEO John Shook at the GBMP annual conference, Oct. 5, Worcester, MA.
Today’s companies are moving at a faster rate than they have ever moved before.
Companies are continually getting products out the door to keep up with demand, and more importantly to stay ahead of their competition.
Are you in that same position??
Applying Organizational Change and Leadership in Agile TransformationsCprime
It is no secret that when an organization chooses to transition to Agile methodologies, it requires an enormous commitment to leadership and change management. Even in prescriptive methods of Agile transitions, such as SAFe, I have found this subject matter deficient, especially in the area of practical application. This presentation is based on a training class I developed and conducted with executive leadership at American Airlines. It focuses on how to apply Dr. John Kotter’s 8-step model of change management and leadership to help transition an organization to support an Agile transformation. I have been involved in large scale Agile Transformations at Nokia, AT&T, American Airlines, Telogical Systems and VCE. I have successfully applied the principles of this process at several companies, most recently at American Airlines IT division to train executives in Agile Change Management.

Do you want to be a manager (are you sure)Ron Lichty
Managing programmers is hard! Becoming a successful manager requires a drastic change of focus. There are expectations to consider before making a leap to the “dark side.”
The transition from programmer to manager is made particularly challenging by the dramatic difference between what made us successful as programmers and what it takes to successfully manage others. In addition, programmers are an interesting management challenge.
We tend to be free spirits, playful, curious, and (very) independent.
How can you ease the transition into management? What’s management really about? What will you give up?
Bio:
Ron Lichty wants to make software development better worldwide by advancing the practice of software development management. He has been alternating between consulting with and managing software development and product organizations for 25 years, almost all of those spent untangling the knots in software development and transforming chaos to clarity, the last 20 of those in the era of Agile. Originally a programmer, he earned several patents and wrote two popular programming books before being hired into his first management role by Apple Computer, which nurtured his managerial growth in both development and product management roles.
Principal and owner of Ron Lichty Consulting, Inc. (www.RonLichty.com), Ron has repeatedly been brought in as an acting CTO and interim vice president of engineering to solve development team challenges. He has trained teams in Scrum, transitioned teams from waterfall and iterative methodologies to agile, coached teams already using agile to make their software development "hum", and trained managers in managing software people and teams. In his continued search for effective best practices, Ron co-authors the Study of Product Team Performance (http://www.ronlichty.com/study.html).
Ron's most recent book is Managing the Unmanageable: Rules, Tools, and Insights for Managing Software People and Teams - http://www.ManagingTheUnmanageable.net. Published by Addison Wesley as both book and video training, it has been compared by reviewers to software development classics, The Mythical Man-Month and Peopleware.
During Ron's first three years at Charles Schwab, he led software development of the first investor tools on Schwab.com, playing a role in transforming the bricks-and-mortar discount brokerage into a premier name in online financial services. He was promoted to Schwab vice president while leading his CIO’s three-year technology initiative to migrate software development from any-language-goes to a single, cost-effective platform company-wide and nurturing Schwab's nascent efforts to leverage early Agile approaches. He has led products and development across a wide range of domains for companies of all sizes, from startups to the Fortune 500, including Fujitsu, Razorfish, Stanford, and Apple.
Ron co-chairs the Silicon Valley Engineering Leadership Community.

How to Navigate a VUCA World with Personal AgilityPeter Stevens
What plans did you make last year? How many were still valid after the COVID crisis hit? Whether for your company, your team or yourself, the WUCA world challenges you to manage risks, find energy and purpose, overcome setbacks and achieve long term goals. How to find and hold direction when everything is changing.
Zehn Risiken, welche Ihr Projekt in eine Katastrophe verwandeln könnenPeter Stevens
Murphy war ein Optimist. Alles, was passieren kann, wird passieren und dazu gehören auch die Risiken, die Ihr Projekt zum Erliegen bringen können - es sei denn, Sie ergreifen Massnahmen um sicherzustellen, dass sie nicht passieren. Ein Digitalisierungsprojekt ist letztendlich ein Softwareprojekt. Wie unterscheiden sich die Risiken eines Softwareprojekts von denjenigen eines Bauprojekts? Dieser Vortrag gibt Antwort und zeigt auf, wie das Beschaffungskonzept besser in Einklang mit dem Lieferkonzept zu bringen ist.
Agile Baden/Finding Purpose in Chaos with Personal AgilityPeter Stevens
The Covid19 has caused much of the economy to shut down, caused many people to work from home (while taking care of their kids!), and caused many people to rethink what they do and how they do it. The world is coming to an end. Or is it a great opportunity? Or both?
We’ll look at how finding purpose can help you face the future without fear and how personal agility can help find purpose of move forward despite the challenges around you.
Geeignetste Vertragsform für EntwicklungsprojektePeter Stevens
Jedes Projekt ist ein Sprung ins Unbekannte und Murphy war ein Optimist. Alles, was passieren kann, wird passieren. Scrum und andere agile Frameworks wurden entwickelt, um Risiken zu verringern und die Erfolgswahrscheinlichkeit von Softwareentwicklungsprojekten zu erhöhen.
Viele Entwicklungsarbeiten werden heutzutage outgesourced. Ein guter Vertrag unterstützt eine gute Zusammenarbeit zwischen den Vertragspartnern. Hindernisse, welche im Vertrag verankert sind, sind kaum zu beseitigen. Was für Alternativen gibt es und welche führen am ehesten zu einem erfolgreichen Abschluss?

Update! Ten Things to Tell Management About Scrum and AgilePeter Stevens
Last year, I shared 10 key points the leaders need to know about Scrum and Agile. Since then, I have worked on two transitions. What works, what doesn't, and how would I update the advice from last year?
Some of the things you do have meaning. Some don't. These six questions identify what has meaning for you and what doesn't. My talk at #AceConf 2018 in Krakow and for the Discuss Agile Group in May 2018.
Scrum and Personal Agility are simple frameworks for getting good at getting the right things done. Scrum is team-based framework, Personal Agility is an individual or pair-oriented framework. How are they similar? And how does Personal Agility help you in contexts where Scrum is not appropriate?
How to do more that matters: From personal satisfaction to professional successPeter Stevens
Why are organizations challenged by agile transitions? How can you get better at doing what matters, both for your own benefit and for more success at work? Peter Stevens explains the simple tools of personal agility and closes the loop between personal and organizational agility.
How to do more that matters: From personal satisfaction to professional successPeter Stevens
What really matters? This question gives you context for making decisions about your life and your projects? How can you do more that matters? How can you have achieve results at work?

How would we define Scrum? How could we convince people to do Scrum? I believe that agreements are more powerful than rules. I also believe that Scrum implements patterns that most of us have experienced in our own most successful projects. Let's test that belief and see how we can apply that to facilitating Scrum adoption. During this interactive workshop, we:
• Share and reflect on the experiences from our own best projects
• Look for patterns in those projects
• Compare Scrum with our own best experiences
• Explore an agreement-based adoption strategy
The workshop also includes some additional food for thought: What if we considered the Scrum Flow as a series of opportunities to ask ourselves powerful questions?
What if Scrum had no rules? How would we define it? What if there were no Scrum? How would we create
it? Scrum is based on successful patterns for product development. During this workshop, we will
reflect and share the experiences from our own best projects, and look for patterns in those projects.
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.

• Law of the Customer
• Focus on customer needs, both existing customers, and even more importantly, new
customers and new markets
• Law of the Network
• Information flows without friction through the organization to seize opportunities or fix
problems
• Law of Small Teams
• Get business and technology working together efficiently to create customer-centric
products

32. “Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but
most of these were largely concerned with the movements
of small green pieces of paper, which is odd because on
the whole it wasn’t the small green pieces of paper that
