How Value Streams Can Highlight Relationships And Relationships Can Lower Fear with Al Shalloway
June 17, 2021 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm EDT
Al Shalloway, Steve Tendon, and Joshua Barnes will discuss an interesting observation that fear drives people into sub-optimization and protecting their silos.
Value Stream Management focuses on the whole and the relationship between the different parties in the value stream. By attending to the workflows and not the people in them, fear can be reduced because it becomes a larger team that is creating the work.
Why UN-Common Sense
As popular as Agile is, its success rate is not particularly high. Your three hosts believe this is because most organizations are being led by cargo cult and echo chambers. Many brilliant and proven concepts are not in any of the more popular approaches. This has resulted in a huge gap between what is possible and what is being achieved. The Uncommon Sense sessions will present many concepts that organizations should be using but that are not popular while also uncover myths present in popular methods that are holding organizations back.
The hosts of Uncommon sense are either creators of cutting edge, but proven approaches (Al, Steve) or an experienced trainer / practitioner in Agile methods. This will ensure you get both the theory and the practice of the methods being described.
