Abstract:

The Scrum framework thrives in complex environments, where more is unknown than that is known. That requires decentralized decision-making and self-managing teams. This level of autonomy is incredibly powerful, yet just as incredibly difficult to install. The guys from the Self-Org Chefs are here to talk to us.

What you’ll discover in this show:

-        Self-management is a layered concept

-        In order for self-management to work, a great level of trust is needed

-        Leadership can make or break self-management in your environment

Abstract:

Scrum is lightweight framework; easy to understand, hard to master. It provides four formal events and one container event. It’s not prescriptive. But still, it’s pretty hard to use in practice. Just going through the motion is not going to help teams and organizations to reap the benefits Scrum can provide. Johannes Schartau and Christiaan Verwijs from The Liberators are here to talk to us about what they call “Zombie Scrum” is how you can cure it. 

What you’ll discover in this show:

-          Scrum Zombies can appear in every organization
-          The Zombie plague can be cured!
-          Zombie Scrum is not just a team problem

 Speakers:

Johannes Schartau

Organizational Consultant

I am an Agile Coach, international speaker, complexity and integral thinker, Liberating Structures user, and Zombie Scrum fighter.

Christiaan Verwijs

Co-Founder of The Liberators

I enjoy igniting positive change in teams and organizations. It is my strong belief that people should be empowered to drive change themselves, rather than being told by management or consultants how to change. My mission is to liberate the world from dehumanizing and demotivating workplaces by helping organizations find better ways to tap into the creativity, intelligence, and wisdom of people. I feel that this is the best way forward in this world of complex work. Based on my personal experience and my background in software engineering and organizational psychology, I have found both the Scrum Framework and Liberating Structures to be powerful ingredients here.
 
 On a more personal note, I live in Utrecht together with Lisanne and our crazy cat Fender. I enjoy painting, reading, and gaming. I also enjoy a good beer paired with a good burger.

Abstract:

Nothing quite captures emotions and the perception of value as just having a simple conversation. JIRA tickets full of details still cannot display what a face-to-face conversation can. But challenging times, like now with the pandemic going on, require a different approach. Jeff Patton joins us to share his insights!

What you’ll discover in this show:

-          COVID has shown that product delivery still continuous steadily

-          Political discussions within the organizations are hard to break

-          The point where conversations start to stop have a huge impact

Ever since the industrial revolution we've been getting more distanced from the value of people in the workspace. People are being called resourced and treated as such. A computer mouse is a resource. An office chair is a resource. People are people. In this episode, we're talking to Gunther Verheyen about we can humanize the workspace again.

Sprint Goals provide the single objective, the single focus, for the Sprint when we're talking about what's the most important thing to do. Often it's a misunderstood or hard thing to create. Why do we need one? Can we really create only 1, we're working on so many things?! Maarten Dalmijn is here to talk to us about why Sprint Goals are so important and how to deal with these questions. There is so much to say about it that he's even writing a book on this specific topic!

Formula 1 is a hypercompetitive sport, with over 400 million people tuning in every year. Margins are within tenths of a second, budgets going over 200 million dollars, and teams are larger than the average company. When it comes to Formula 1 teams, the ability to inspect and adapt is incredibly important. Former Formula 1 driver Giedo van der Garde talks to us about his experience.
