Our Approach
We are invited to coach Senior Executives that want to embrace a Lean-Agile mindset. In return this enables us to develop a deep understanding of their strategic vision, objectives and ways of working.
We collaborate with key stakeholders to prioritise their desired business outcomes by value, urgency, risk mitigation and opportunity empowerment.
We facilitate programme road-map workshops with senior executives and the teams accountable for product management, system architecture, development, security and operations. We help teams ensure quality is built-into their daily routines from the start. We support the development of estimates for their capacity and the work required to deliver releases on demand. We make sure dependencies and risks are captured. We work with the teams to remove dependencies on the flow of work and to ensure all risks are resolved, owned, accepted and mitigated. We monitor Lean-Agile Portfolio Road-Maps to ensure they are coherent, based on business outcomes and fully aligned with corporate strategy.
We ensure transparency by facilitating regular Program Increment Workshops with stakeholders to demonstrate the working system, measure progress against desired business outcomes and provide opportunities for course correction, with minimum wasted effort. We maintain high visibility information radiators to help shine a floodlight on delivery achievements and any impediments to the realisation of business value.
