Tips on Implementing Agile

Things that can destroy Agile

  • Dont get caught up in functional silos (boxes)

eg: Marketing, Engieering, Quality, Manufacturing divisions

  • Functions > Requirements
  • Leader should optimize the transition to Agile
  • Change is difficult: Crawl > Walk > Run
  • First define previous work culture, then define what it needs to be

How to track transition

  • Agile works with user stories replacing the marketing requirements document
  • Observe the number of user stories added - this is a good metric

Agile with a small "a" (agile):

  • Sprints
  • A mechanism to track progress so that it is visible and transparent
  • Indication of accomplishment
