Shane Harrison, business focused change agent specializing in enterprise-level digital Lean Agile transformations, takes PI planning to the next level. Harrison offers tips and tricks on how to execute with a higher success rate.

He advocates for aligning PI objectives with solid plans; socialization is only successful when the teams understand the context and vision of the plan. He says, “I’m always looking for the teams to get into a state of flow…any interruption to the team disrupts the flow.”

For leadership guests at PI planning, Harrison recommends an “eyes open, ears open, mouth shut” approach – an observation exercise rather than interaction with the teams.
