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...

Example Manifesto

Hola! Time for an early evening coffee! I've just had an amazing lunch and I need my espresso! Few weeks ago I attended a Kanban Training which allowed to acquire an interesting insight of the change management method.  As a personal experiment, I'm just trying to remember everything I learned from those days...

We are still babies. We understand things better from examples. Real-life ones if possible - since Agile is a way of life, right? Try to provide lots of theories, lots of references or many "speeches". If you take 10 minutes of your time to explain something that can be done using an example in less... You are wasting your time. You won't get anybody's attention. It doesn't matter how precise is your explanation if you don't "get" the peop...

Stand-up for your rights!

Hola there! How is the weekend going coffee-lovers? Weather in Málaga is so good! And I went to see Malaga FC playing Spanish Cup and we won  the game! (we destroyed Deportivo) I cannot complain! Malaga FC is just awesome! Focusing. The daily stand-up, daily scrum or just stand-up is considered to be the most important meeting of the Scrum world. But why? And why not? Many not very-scrum teams usually think that this meeting is just useless and reduce the concentration as to be thought as a break or an interruption which breaks the rhythm. Obviously I quite disagree with it. What would you expect I was going to say? :) It is just a short daily meeting where we have to know what we did the day before, what are we doing tomorrow and what are our blockers. The method to extract this information is via focusing on the individuals. The individuals themselves will be acting as a part of the cake - that is the team - and in orders will speak 1-by-1 about their own progress. ...
