Agile Practices using Jira Atlassian

The more we meet software development organizations, the more we see how Jira, the most popular ALM tool out there, is being misused.  Abusing the tool is quite easy actually… Paraphrasing Tolstoy’s words from Anna Karenina, “Good Jira implementations are all alike but unhappy implementations are all unhappy in their own way”. (In AgileSparks we keep a warm place for the classics). We have seen many cases where the abuse of the tool caused frustrations and inconsistencies with the Agile mindset that put at risk the ability to benefit from Agile practices adopted by the organization.

Comparing and choosing scaled agile approaches (or not scaling at all? )

The subject of my talk today was “Introduction to Lean/Agile scaling approaches” where talked about why scaling approaches are necessary and when to actually try to de-scale as well as gave a very brief introduction to a couple of the key frameworks we typically use – SAFe, Large Scale Scrum, Spotify’s approach, Connected kanbans.  I then finished with some decision criteria questions to ask yourself as you’re starting this journey.

Sustainable, Successful, and Repeatable – Elad Amit

Over the past couple of years, my colleagues and I have led dozens of implementations in a variety of companies. As we closed the second year of our company we began noticing the problems and costs incurred by the fact that we each worked differently. E.g. miscommunications, differences in outcomes, and rework done between implementations. We decided it was time we go and analyze our past implementations for common goals and methods of operation.

Kanban at Pelephone – Case Study

I will be talking about:

* The problems that we wanted to solve (some are still with us) and how the Kanban mindset helped us define the change and then implement it

* what challenges we encountered along the way
