What is Agile? - What are the roles in Agile development? How do we implement or scale with Agile? Which Agile processes should I use in my case?
There are so many questions about Agile, so in a series of Meetups, we will try to uncover as many aspects of Agile as possible, in order to provide the full overview of Agility in organisations. The form will be a combination of presentations and discussions, so everyone has a chance to address their thoughts on the matter.
In the first chapter, we had a more "general" talk about what Agile software development is, and the value behind it. What does it mean to be Agile? - In the second chapter we looked into the Product Owner role and the many expectations and responsibilities that comes along with the "titel" - and in the third chapter we turned our focus towards the Scrum Master, his role, responsibilities and the ceremonies in SCRUM.
Fourth chapter where about the Feedback loop, and the importance on being able to reach upon changes.
In this fifth chapter we focussed on growing with Agile. What happens when one development team isn't enough to deliver the requirements of your product, and you need to scale? In the chapter we covered the following topics:
• Scaling with Agile
• LESS
• SAFE

21. KEYWORDS ABOUT LESS
▸ Focused on directing the attention of all of the teams onto
the whole product instead of “my part”
▸ Basically single-team Scrum scaled up
▸ a single Product Backlog (because it’s for a product, not a team)
▸ one Definition of Done for all teams
▸ one Potentially Shippable Product Increment at the end of each Sprint
▸ one Product Owner
▸ many complete, cross-functional teams (with no single-specialist teams)
▸ one Sprint
▸ In LeSS all Teams are in a common Sprint to deliver a
common shippable product, every Sprint

36. MAKE PEOPLE AWESOME
HOW CAN WE MAKE PEOPLE AWESOME. THIS INCLUDES THE PEOPLE WHO
USE, MAKE, BUY, SELL OR FUND OUR PRODUCTS OR SERVICES. WE LEARN
THEIR CONTEXT AND PAIN POINTS, WHAT HOLDS THEM BACK AND WHAT
THEY ASPIRE TO ACHIEVE. HOW CAN WE MAKE THEM AWESOME?
DELIVER VALUE CONTINUOUSLY
ANYTHING THAT ISN’T DELIVERED ISN’T HELPING ANYONE
BECOME MORE AWESOME OR SAFE. IN MODERN AGILE WE ASK
OURSELVES, “HOW COULD VALUABLE WORK BE DELIVERED
FASTER?”
EXPERIMENT & LEARN RAPIDLY
YOU CAN’T MAKE PEOPLE AWESOME OR SAFER IF YOU AREN’T
LEARNING. WE LEARN RAPIDLY BY EXPERIMENTING FREQUENTLY.
WE MAKE OUR EXPERIMENTS “SAFE TO FAIL” SO WE ARE NOT
AFRAID TO CONDUCT MORE EXPERIMENTS.
MAKE SAFETY A PREREQUISITE
SAFETY IS BOTH A BASIC HUMAN NEED AND A KEY TO UNLOCKING HIGH
PERFORMANCE. WE ACTIVELY MAKE SAFETY A PREREQUISITE BY
ESTABLISHING SAFETY BEFORE ENGAGING IN ANY HAZARDOUS WORK. WE
PROTECT PEOPLE’S TIME, INFORMATION, REPUTATION, MONEY, HEALTH AND
RELATIONSHIPS. AND WE ENDEAVOR TO MAKE OUR COLLABORATIONS,
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES RESILIENT AND SAFE.
