Problem Bag:

We have a Product Mgr who’s supportive of Agile in theory, but wont do the work we need him to do. How do we manage that? eg not being available for to discuss stories (often away) & the highest priority work is the customer who screams loudest… rather than product progression, we do a lot of tweaks & minor bug fixes. Yes we do showcases, after each 2 wk sprint. Alternatively, is that a problem, or are we as a team expecting too much? (just to turn it around!) 🙂 – Phil Kan

Scrum GuideBack to our usual revolutionists Craig, Tony and Renee take a look over Craig’s recent escapades at Agile 2011 and STANZ.

And so much time was spent on referring to this book or that book that we just had to link what books we unwittingly covered in what we like to call Tony’s Oprah Winfrey Bookclub!

Quotes:

“Some tribes are stuck. They embrace the status quo and drown out any tribe member who dares to question authority and the accepted order.”  – Seth Godin, Tribes

“Agile projects are like guided missiles, the customer discovers what they want, the developers discover how to build it and the things change along the way.” –  Henrik Kniberg
