#ModernProductManagent

Many of our #agile practices are from a previous era. They represent the best thing we could do at the time with what we knew.

Yet we are continuing to discover better ways of delivering products (and not just software). With these better ways, there is no clear done point of a feature. It is an evolving and changing target. (Other than sunsetting it.)

#BetterWaysOfWorking #ModernProductManagent #ProductOM #AdaptiveOM

making a thing, creating an output of some sort, is not our goal. Instead, success is the extent to which we achieve an outcome and help our customers achieve an outcome they seek. Make it easier to connect to family and friends, make it easier to find healthy food in a supermarket-these are outcomes that create value for the customer and, if delivered correctly, to the business in turn. This is the new definition of a product or service that is "done." And it's an evolving target.

OKRs are a hot trend in businesses today. But are mostly misapplied and turn into yet another reductionist command and control mechanism.

Cagan has some advice on how to get the benefits from this technology.

#ModernProductManagent #ManagementInnovation #BettetWaysOfWorking #AdaptiveOM

So, in terms of actually getting the benefits of OKRs, there are three critical prerequisites:
- Move from the feature team model to the empowered product team model
- Stop doing manager objectives and individual objectives, and instead focus on team objectives
- Leaders need to step up and do their part to turn product strategy into action

Shared objectives handled best by fluid teaming. Hmm, now if only there was an operating model to support this idea! Enter #FaST. Designed to support the needs of #ModernProductManagent. A new #Agile method for the next wave of #agility and #product management.

Another form of shared team objective is when multiple teams temporarily combine their talents to solve a particularly hard problem. Especially on problems that benefit from a range of different skills brought to bear, bringing the teams together can often provide the knowledge and synergy required to quickly come up with an effective solution.

if you think that by moving to #agile you've already done some form of digital transformation, I am sorry to tell you, but you haven't even gotten started. ~ Marty Cagan

#ModernProductManagent

Yes - flexible teams. #FaSTAgile #ModernProductManagent

Why is this feature in the backlog? (I.e. share with us the why and not just the what. What assumptions testing was done to put this in the backlog.) #ModernProductManagent

Why are we locked into a process and not allowed to experiment?

Why, why, why, why, why?

Spread a system mindset. Keep asking why
