Peter Merel has an impressive résumé: XP pioneer, author of the original Wikipedia wiki-engine, and founder of XSCALE Alliance.
XSCALE Alliance follows de-scaling practices and values, where the goal is, among other things, to “enable [self-organizing teams] to self-manage and self-direct.” Merel takes us on a thought-provoking stroll through topics like:
- Frameworks as pattern languages
- A “damning statistic” that may have been overlooked in a recent VersionOne’s State of Agile Survey
- Throughput accounting
- YAGNI – “You aren’t going to need it”
- And – most interestingly to us – descaling in a business agility context
“How can we achieve alignment between lots of these little autonomous teams to be able to build something like a self-organizing value stream, or a self-directing portfolio? That’s really our challenge.”
Accenture | SolutionsIQ’s Adam Mattis hosts.
