Why use a Value Stream Map, How to create As-Is and To-Be maps, two types of VSMs (Operational and Development), and how VSMs can help you organize your teams
Updated version at https://www.slideshare.net/GiulioRoggero/kanban-board-82363781
Do you have a team that works on both project and maintenance? Do you need to organize your team activities? Do you have a lot of activities in parallel and the time to market it's a problem? With a Kanban board and an Agile approach you can solve your problems!
Take a look of the animation of the slides to discover how it works.
Where can Kanban be embedded in the organizational context? Sounds like an easy question, however, it is not always easy to answer - especially in bigger organizations. In this session I will introduce the Kanban Flight Levels model which provides an overview of the different fields of application of Kanban and helps to understand the implications for the organizational context. Furthermore, the model helps to clarify where to start with your Kanban change initiative: on team level, on the value stream, or on portfolio level - every level has it's own challenges, pros and cons.
Leading a large-scale agile transformation isn’t about adopting a new set of attitudes, processes, and behaviors at the team level… it’s about helping your company deliver faster to market, and developing the ability to respond to a rapidly-changing competitive landscape. First and foremost, it’s about achieving business agility. Business agility comes from people having clarity of purpose, a willingness to be held accountable, and the ability to achieve measurable outcomes. Unfortunately, almost everything in modern organizations gets in the way of teams acting with any sort of autonomy. In most companies, achieving business agility requires significant organizational change. Join @Mike Cottmeyer live from #Agile2017 during this workshop.

This is a presentation on "Lean & Agile Organizational Leadership: History, Theory, Models, & Popular Ideas," which are emerging models for managing high-risk, time-sensitive R&D-oriented new product development (NPD) projects with demanding customers and fast-changing market conditions (at the enterprise, portfolio, and program levels). It establishes the context, provide a definition, and describe the value-system for lean and agile methods, principles, and core ideas. It provides a brief history and comparative analysis of agile methods (i.e., Crystal Methods, Scrum, Dynamic Systems Development Method, Feature Driven Development, and Extreme Programming), project management models (i.e., Radical, Adaptive, Extreme, Agile, and Simplified Agile), and portfolio frameworks (i.e., Enterprise Scrum, Scaled Agile Framework, Large Scale Scrum, Disciplined Agile Delivery, and Recipes for Agile Governance). Then it provides multiple histories of the fields of organizational leadership, administration, and management over the last 100 years. It then introduces, delves into, describes, and provides a brief survey and comparative analysis of emerging theories, models, and methods of lean and agile leadership (i.e., Agile, Employee, Radical, Lean, and Leadership 3.0). Finally, it closes with an expose of the top organizational change paradigms most closely aligned with the field of lean and agile development, project management, and portfolio management methodologies (along with a unique summary of the major tenets, principles, and practices of lean & agile organizational leadership). This briefing has been warmly received by multiple U.S. government agencies, contractors, and university audiences throughout Baltimore-Washington, DC.

Leading a large-scale agile transformation isn’t about adopting a new set of attitudes, processes, and behaviors at the team level… it’s about helping your company deliver faster to market, and developing the ability to respond to a rapidly-changing competitive landscape.

Unfortunately, almost everything in modern organizations gets in the way of teams acting with any sort of autonomy. In most companies, achieving business agility requires significant organizational change.
Agile transformation necessitates a fundamental rethinking of how your company organizes for delivery, how it delivers value to its customers, and how it plans and measures outcomes. Agile transformation is about building enabling structures, aligning the flow of work, and measuring for outcomes based progress. It's about breaking dependencies. The reality is that this kind of change can only be led from the top. This talk will explore how executives can define an idealized end-state for the transformation, build a fiscally responsible iterative and incremental plan to realize that end-state, as well as techniques for tracking progress and managing change.
Agile IT Operatinos - Getting to Daily ReleasesLeadingAgile
Getting to Daily Releases with Agile IT Operations. Devin Hedge, Enterprise Transformation Consultant talks to a group at Triagile about the Six Key Areas to focus on when attempting to transform IT Operations with Lean and Agile principles. The talk covers Service Engineering, IT Operations, and the Tier 1 Support/NOC organizations. Kanban, Service Management (ITSM), and what it means to have a DevOps orientation.
Deploying Hoshin Kanri as a Competitive WeaponGrant Crow
This presentation evaluates the Hoshin Kanri concept, what it is, how it works, what can go wrong and how to make Hoshin really work.
Slide 3: Most people familiar with Hoshin Kanri will know that it translates from Japanese into a "Vision Compass". More importantly, Hoshin is gaining traction due to its recognition of the need to link direction (strategy formulation) with management (implementation).
Slide 4: A key feature of Hoshin Kanri is the concept of Breakthrough Objectives. The concept encourages aggressive objectives together with a structured method for cascading these and breaking them down into manageable pieces.
Slides 5 and 6 address common responses from executives one might encounter when trying to introduce Hoshin Kanri together with the symptoms suggesting that Hoshin Planning is required. The symptoms listed will strike a chord with many readers and represent the product of poor strategy execution.
Slide 8 identifies some of the many leading organizations using Hoshin as their strategy execution methodology. The majority of organizations that we at i-nexus are talking to (particularly in the USA) are either considering implementing Hoshin Kanri or have already made a start.
Slide 9 identifies the value of having a strong strategy execution system by tracking share price performance.
Slides 11 and 12 introduce the link between Hoshin Kanri, and in particular the X matrix concept, and Balanced Scorecards. The traditional Balanced Scorecard clearly introduced value by looking at business metrics from more than purely a financial perspective. In contrast however, the X matrix is a far more robust tool for supporting strategy implementation. The various faces of the X matrix (South, West, North and East) detail the WHAT, HOW FAR, HOW and HOW MUCH of the strategy. Having said that, the X matrix is by no means universally popular as a Hoshin tool and is regarded by some CEO's as too complex. It is clearly a tool more likely to provide value in organizations that are more mature in their strategy execution journey.
Slide 13 shows an example of how the i-nexus software supports both the Hoshin X matrix and Scorecards.
Slide 15 identifies the critical role of the bowling chart in linking between the X matrix and action plans and its use a key management tool to track achievement and lack thereof against goals.
Slide 17 identifies "culture change" as a key barrier to effective Hoshin. Many of our customers do find that the greater transparency achieved with i-nexus can be seen as a threat. This needs to be managed carefully with problems (red traffic lights) seen as discussion points rather than failure.
Slide 22 provides an example of an A3 report. Many i-nexus customers find visual management of progress to be key to obtaining commitment to Hoshin.
Finally slide 24 looks at the value of Hoshin countermeasures in enabling early identification and resolution of barriers to progress.

For decades now, "management" has been synonymous with managing people. Meanwhile, processes, the lifeblood of an organization, remain largely unmanaged. In this webinar, Karen shares her views on why we need to change our thinking and her practical how-to's for making this vital pivot.
We are doing Agile well..We have been Agile now.. Is it just an assumption or do we have data to support it? Do metrics add any value or they are just a fad? Good metrics affirm & reinforce Agile principles. They open up the conversation and help the teams to improve. They are not only for management, it is for everyone who wants to inspect and adapt.
So this presentation is about how metrics can be used effectively in Agile to enable transparency and improve the overall efficiency at the team/ program and portfolio level.
Adaptive Strategy Combining OKR and Lean Portfolio ManagementEmiliano Soldi
Uncertainties and market volatility are today the norm
Setting a vision and strategic plans able to survive to such a situation is a complicated exercise for any companies
C-Levels must navigate this continual and perpetual changes; they must provide themselves with tools capable of tackling this complexity, adapt quickly, engage and keep the whole company connected
Exploiting the huge potential of OKRs and Lean Portfolio Management and then connecting them to exploit each other, is the best response to face these challenges
Exploring Agile Transformation and Scaling PatternsMike Cottmeyer
The goal of any enterprise agile adoption strategy is NOT to adopt agile. Companies adopt agile to achieve better business outcomes. Large organizations have no time for dogma and one-size-fits-all thinking when it comes to introducing agile practices. These companies need pragmatic guidance for safely and incrementally introducing structure, principles, and ultimately practices that will result in greater long term, sustainable business results. This talk will introduce a framework for safely, pragmatically, and incrementally introducing agile to help you achieve your business goals.
Agile Product Management: Getting from Backlog to ValueLeadingAgile
What does it take to create a backlog, build software, release features, and finally deliver value to your customers? From estimation to prioritization, to understanding an end-state vision of an organization, this deck helps you understand the value you're delivering to your users. Learn more about the principles of Agile Product Management in this slide deck from LeadingAgile, Senior Vice President and Executive Consultant, Adam Asch.
Lean software engineering emphasizes continuous delivery of high quality applications. Ken Pugh explains the principles and practices that form the basis of lean software development―concentrating on developing a continuous flow by eliminating delays and loopbacks; delivering quickly by developing in small batches; emphasizing high quality which decreases delays due to defect repair; making policies, process and progress transparent; optimizing the whole rather than individual steps; and becoming more efficient by decreasing waste. Ken describes lean’s emphasis on cycle time, rather than resource utilization, and demonstrates the value stream map which helps you visualize the development cycle flow to identify bottlenecks. He explores the differences between push and pull flow, describes how lean thinking shows up in agile processes including Scrum and Extreme Programming, and discusses how lean can be applied to the entire workflow—not just the development portion. Ken concludes with a discussion of how you can begin your lean transformation.

In software engineering, the right architecture is essential for robust, scalable platforms. Wix has undergone a pivotal shift from event sourcing to a CRUD-based model for its microservices. This talk will chart the course of this pivotal journey.
Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.

6. Silo Focus
• Misses
• Lead Time/Cycle Time – no one managing the pipeline
• Coordination across teams
• Effects of upstream groups on my teams
• Effects of my teams on downstream groups

9. What’s the big deal?
• Requirements slow
• Not responsive to customer
• Can’t satisfy urgent needs
• Business needs are constantly changing – requirements go stale
• Testing delayed
• Debugging is much more difficult/costly
• Synchronizing
• Postponed merges are much more complicated
• Non Value work appears
• More work is in progress
• More to track
• More to understand
• More coordination meetings
• Queues develop
• queue management is non value adding work
Jim.brisson@agilecoaching.org
It’s less efficient
Ensuring everyone’s busy
is the wrong answer
10. Where will we get better return
Get better at
what you do
Reduce delays
between steps
Jim.brisson@agilecoaching.org
11. Busy
• We can all be very busy
• But lots of work can be waiting
• Most companies don’t manage their development pipeline well at all
Jim.brisson@agilecoaching.org
12. Scrum Team process can
be efficient
• Many orgs, with Agile practices, have
resolved many problems within teams
• Cross Functional Teams
• Short Sprints
• Continuous integration
Jim.brisson@agilecoaching.org
13. But work before after and across less so
• Portfolio Management
• Dependencies
• Organizational structure
• Environments
• Test Phases
• Shared resources
Jim.brisson@agilecoaching.org
15. Charter
• Executive Support
• Promise that changing/eliminating roles will NOT result in job loss
Jim.brisson@agilecoaching.org
16. Basic Steps
• Get executive support
• Decide where begin and end
• Staff accordingly
• Refine Charter – how you’ll work, inputs and outputs, when you’re done …
• Create initial VS Map
• Gemba
• walk the process – the team should talk directly to process doers
• Get agreement on AS-IS process
• Agree on problem areas to address
• With appropriate stakeholders – brainstorm ways to improve process
• Propose solutions (To-Be) process
• Experiment, Measure, Adjust (PDCA)
• Iterate
Jim.brisson@agilecoaching.org
19. Define Processes
• We are not process mapping
• High Level
• Minimal or no branching
• Not creating a user journey
• Not concerned with mapping customer happiness
• Main Process Steps
• Clues
• Handoffs
• Wait Times

38. Operational vs. Development Value Streams
There are two types of Value Streams:
System
1. Operational Value Streams
Used to deliver end Customer value
2. Development Value Streams
Used to build the systems and capabilities
that enable operational Value Streams
Our focus is the latter, but to understand the latter,
you first have to understand the former.
System System System System
39. Examples of an Operational Value Stream
Hospital
patient
services
Consumer
bank loans
Note: Sometimes the Operation and Development Value Streams are the same. Example: SaaS vendor that develops and deploys an end-user solution
Setup:
Have people identify their space
If using flip chart paper, they may need a space as big as two flip chart pages wide by two flip chart pages high
