Back to the future

Hola amigos! It's been a long month and finally we are about to complete the last day of these 31 days agile blog experience! Since today is the last day of the year I'll get a Victoria beer ! I was thinking of what is the best way to end the blog. What about inspecting and adapting the blog itself so I can take actions to improve if this experience is repeated in the future? Sounds like a retrospective! Trying first of all to be constructive...  The Prime Directive "Regardless of what we discover, we understand and truly believe that everyone did the best job they could, given what they knew at the time, their skills and abilities, the resources available, and the situation at hand." Should I raise my hand to and say: "I agree". Quite obvious. So do I :-) What went wrong? Most of the entries were not deepened. In order to keep the easy-going style, not very long, I feel that some of the posts could have a longer content.  Difficulti...

Sa-tis-fac-tion!

Hola Hola! Maybe not the right time for a coffee. No. There's always a good time for it. Agile coaching is tough. Very tough. Essentially we (people) are... tough. You need to have a strategy (your epic) and a full set of tactics (user stories) that align to a common goal. Within my career. When providing Agile coaching, this is structured in few phases: 1. Understanding of the current situation and who the people are and behave. This is a continuos work since people are not predictable and you cannot even draft an immutable plan. However, we need to start from a point, let's say our sprint 0. We will be learning as we go. Last week for instance. Our starting point was the understanding of our evolution as a team and an individual brief profile description .  " We know how we are (Now!) and what brought us here" 2.

We don't need no education

Hola! A long fun weekend is coming! So I am preparing myself with a big cup of coffee! Education is important. I assume that we agree in this and I don't have to bring valid reasons on why this is important. So, sticking to the point, there are several methods: - Self-teaching . Reading, writing, webinars, researching, attending meetups for instance... the world is not enough! - " Microwave-teaching ". While working is another way if you are under a company that has a nice "try" and "fail" culture in the atmosphere. "We can make the invest of trying something that nobody knows what it is, but we can assume the loss in learning and trying, no matter if it doesn't help us". The action of stimulating your creativity is indeed a success by definition although it is just you alone in the dark. - Training (external or internal) . No discussion on how useful they are. Just a comment. You may have spent your last 8-10 years on a topic th...
