Sprint Goal

PORTFOLIO

Release and Value Stream => Roadmap

QUALITY Evangelists

COMMUNITY Engagement

• Processes ChM, IM, RM, SLA • Trust not control based organization • Agile at Scale, requires Trust at Scale

• Environment for secure experiments

People and INTERACTIONS

• API (stable, REST, versioned, JSON, HTTP Statuses) • Frontend and Backend separation • Release and Continuous Deployment

• Joint Operations

• Scrum rejection and come back • Slow changes before initial production release • Need for more quality awareness • Procurement process slows you down • Transparent Retrospective failure

Problems

Afterwords

• Agile is not a destination, it’s a direction • Coach and Change Leaders - with passion for change • Management - trust and no fear of change • Agile > Scrum, but stay Scrum as much as you can • if Prince 2 then not Scrum and Kanban • Evolution not Revolution
