SPaMCAST 435 - Allan Kelly, #NoProjects, Value


Listen Later

The Software Process and Measurement Cast 435 features our interview with Allan Kelly.  Our discussion touched on the concepts behind #NoProjects.  Allan describes how the concept of a project leads to a number of unintended consequences.  Those consequences aren’t pretty. Allan makes digital development teams more effective and improves delivery with continuous agile approaches to reduce delay and risk while increasing value delivered. He helps teams and smaller companies - including start-ups and scale-ups - with advice, coaching and training. Managers, product and technical staff are all involved in his improvements. He is the originator of Retrospective Dialogue Sheets and Value Poker, the author of four books, including "Xanpan - team-centric Agile Software Development" and "Business Patterns for Software Developers". On Twitter he is @allankellynet. Re-Read Saturday News This week we tackle Chapter 8 of Carol Dweck’s : The New Psychology of Success (buy your copy and read along).  Chapter 8, titled “Changing Mindsets.” The whole concept of mindsets would be an interesting footnote if we did not believe they could change. Chapter 8 drives home the point that has been made multiple times in the book, that mindsets are malleable with self-awareness and a lot of effort. The question of whether all people want to be that self-aware will be addressed next week as we wrap up our re-read. We are quickly closing in on the end of our re-read of Mindset.  I anticipate one more week.   The next book in the series will be ). After my recent interview with Jeff Dalton on , I realized that I had only read extracts from Holacracy by Brian J. Robertson, therefore we will read (first time for me) the whole book together. Every week we discuss a chapter then consider the implications of what we have “read” from the point of view of both someone pursuing an organizational transformation and using the material when coaching teams.   Remember to buy a copy of Carol Dweck’s and start the re-read from the beginning! Visit the to participate in this and previous re-reads. Next SPaMCAST The next Software Process and Measurement Cast will feature our essay on incremental change approaches.  We will also have columns from Jeremy Berriault. Jeremy blogs at  and Jon M Quigley who brings his column, the Alpha and Omega of Product Development, to the Cast. One of the places you can find Jon is at .
