Prioritization Between Teams

Avoiding Orthodoxy

Session Host: Moss Collum

- Avoiding rule-bound-ness
- How to recognize habits that are no longer needed?
- Helping teams notice constraints, look to principles
- Measuring value of practices
- Consistency vs. Orthodoxy
- "It might be hard because you're doing it wrong."
- Team driven (BUT, team often doesn't know the best direction)
- Team priorities vs. organizational priorities (BUT, change can't be imposed from above)
- Agile at the organizational level: recognizing the individuality of teams
- Decentralization
- Importance of external feedback mechanisms
- But standardization from above can also create huge benefits
- Management as a team
- "Red Robin's experiment with radical transparency"
