Agile coaching is essential knowledge for every knowledge worker, including management and teams. It is the opposite of believing that agile coaching is for change agents because everyone is responsible for the change. So everyone needs to learn the art of agile coaching. I divide agile coaching into three broad categories.

Finally I got a perfect plan to execute agile software project. I was looking for long and finally found after lots of hard work and great inputs from Agile EXPERTS (over social networking sites). Don’t laugh. Let’s see what exactly our plan look like. I will run through each word to ensure I have understood it well (like an expert). What is agile? Still confused? Methodology, Framework or Mindset? I don’t know but why should I care as long as I believe in agile manifesto for software development. Agile manifesto for software development? Isn’t agile applicable everywhere? May be but I don’t care as long as my purpose is to develop software product. Because I have not seen agile principles getting applied in other areas so far. Agile principles? Yes there are 12 but unfortunately (or conveniently) many ignore those and focus only on 4 values. What is Project? Definition as per PMBOK “It’s a temporary endeavor undertaken to create a unique product, service or result. A project is temporary in that it has defined beginning and end in time, and therefore defined scope and resources.” How does it matter? Project is temporary endeavor so we always try to meet timeline to deliver committed scope. But what if we are running behind schedule in meeting scope? Probably I will start rushing and may crash (quality will suffer). To avoid failure further in meeting deadlines and scope what else can be done? May hire watcher to watch progress (introducing more metrics) and a pusher to push people to meet commitment (command and control). So basically Agile and Project Management looks oxymoron to me. Either I am agile or managing project. So what I should do? What about changing mindset from project to product? Will this help? Moment I say product, 1st thing that comes in mind is customer satisfaction and better quality. So what? So I may start thinking of having happy customers by delivering better quality product and caring customer’s real needs. This will help me to build right product by validating my assumptions as frequent as possible. In way it will help me to be agile automatically. This sounds interesting. Isn’t it? Perfect Execution Plan? Is it possible? May be but only if I understand plan vs planning. I need frequent planning and not perfect plan to make my customer happy. Because understanding of customer’s need requires frequent validation of assumption so frequent planning will help rather than perfect plan. Execution? No because execution sounds like predefined plan so what about building? Building carefully each and every features that makes more sense to my happy customers. Basically customers need emerge over the period so my processes to cater those may emerge as well so why to have predefined plan or pre-configured mindset. Now look at the heading. Do you think having a perfect plan for executing software project make sense? Isn’t it myth for developing software product? Better to have emergent processes to develop great software product. Ah! That’s make more sense to me. What about you? Still stuck with agile project management? *image – courtesy..
Why assessment needed? Assessment is important to design approach for agile adoption and helpful for organization to measure effectiveness. Purpose should be to identify improvement areas and should evolve over the period. But many time organizations have to prepare budget for agile adoption in advance to get approval for expenses from board. They engage vendors to perform assessment to estimate cost. There is no harm in doing it as long as vendor act as facilitator than judge. Although I personally believe that need of agility should get established before assessment start so result get aligned with need. Only assessment may not help in understanding reality at ground. Arguments given in support of assessment always get liked with estimation of implementation cost. Some estimate needed for budgetary approval if organization culture demands. Another argument is to design customized training, coaching and mentoring based on reality as every organization culture is different. How to design assessment? What will be the parameters for assessment? I believe at the highest level, the Assessment approach should assesses agility on four dimensions: Revenue of an organization (Top Level) Operating cost of an organization (Bottom Level) Customer satisfaction (CSAT) Employee Satisfaction (ESAT) Every further assessments must be linked with above dimensions. Assessment should be helpful in identifying improvement areas (one time/ continuous). Must be owned by leaders and team collectively. Facilitators should help to assess by innovative ideas. Another area needed attention is the way of collecting data. Data should get generate automatically by creative sessions, games and activities etc. How these assessments can be designed pointing back to above four dimensions? Enterprise Agility (Top Line, Bottom Line, CSAT, ESAT) – culture, structure, transparency, learning, innovation and social Suggested activities – Causal loop diagram, Impact Mapping, Skilled Facilitator workshop and some game related to context switching, queueing theory etc. Business Agility (Top Line, CSAT) – customer engagement, collaboration, time to market, service and revenue Suggested activities – Impact mapping, game for time to market, empirical process control and prioritization etc. Team Agility (Bottom Line, ESAT) – team building, automation, innovation, technical Excellency, learning and sharing Suggested activities – Game related to 5 dysfunctions of team, working without titles, test first vs code first, emergent design and value stream mapping etc. Samples metrics that can be further modified based on organization culture. Team Agility:- Team is meeting daily to assess progress Team members trust on each other Team owns success and failure as team Team owns code collectively and not individually Team members estimate PBIs collectively Everyone in team has gone through basic agile workshop Everyone agreed to work in self-managing team Everyone understand the value of collaboration Team conducting regular retrospective to improve processes Team care about whole product and not just individual goal Business Agility:- Everyone from team joining Product Backlog Refinement Business representative attending Refinement Session PBIs are ready for development prior to development start Business representative available for clarification whenever team wanted Business representative joins Planning session Team always define clear goal for development during Planning Business representative understand cost of rework Business representative care..
