Some concepts about agile

Daily station will

---

Everyone answers at the daily standing meeting / Three questions mentioned ：

1. Since the end of the last meeting , What have you done ？
2. From now on to the next meeting , What do you plan to do ？
3. What are the difficulties that stand in your way ？

This way of communication , Is it better than other ways of communication ？
It should be better .

• First , Formally speaking , It's more frequent , Once a day , In terms of time , There can be enough time in advance to expose problems . meanwhile 3 The first question is general 3 A sentence can be finished , The station will use very little time .
• secondly , In terms of content , It is important to realize the visibility of the project in progress 、 transparency , It can be done . We are talking about Sangong , Open 、 fair 、 justice , Back 2 I don't know how to arrange , But public ranking 1 There is no doubt about this , The first 1 Is to be public , Be able to dry in the sun . So is the implementation of the project , Through the stand will be , Realize the disclosure of project status 、 transparent 、 so . Such bad things will not happen in the soil .

Agile coach

Agile coach People who help a team adopt agile methods .
He will help everyone in the team learn a new attitude and way of thinking , And overcome spiritual 、 Emotional , There are also technical barriers that prevent teams from adopting agile methods .
Agile coaches work with everyone on the team , Not only help the latter understand “ What about? " To implement the new practices they want to adopt , And help the latter understand “ Why? " To do this . When anyone is asked to try something new at work , In the face of change, there will be natural rejection , Even fear , The coach will help the team overcome these emotions .
Agile coach Our goal is to help the team get better and more agile thinking .
A good coach will help the team choose a set of methods suitable for its existing thinking , And introduce the corresponding values to it in a way suitable for the team 、 Principles and practices . Coaches will help teams adopt their practices , Then use these practices to help the team learn and internalize values and principles , In order to slowly change the attitude of team members , At the same time, make them enter the correct way of thinking , So as to get a better result than “ something is better than nothing " Better results .
Agile coach Most of my time is spent helping people in my team change the way they work . This is a challenge for both the coach and the team , Because only the coach can see the overall situation . For the people in the team , They were asked to adopt a new set of working methods , But they don't necessarily know why they do it .

So is agile coaching a must ？
My opinion is not .
It's like you have a lawsuit , Is it necessary to hire a lawyer ？ No .
clean up the room , Ask a room dresser to plan and tidy , Is it necessary ？ No .
however , The lawyer 、 The room dresser certainly has its own value .
The same is true of agile coaches , He can help the team faster 、 Better access to agile , Get value . Someone led in and asked , Generally speaking , It is always better than self-study and exploration . this is it .
