Scrum# Webinar Series, Part III:
September 2
Scrum# at the Enterprise 11am PDT
This webinar discusses why
Scrum works and how Lean's metaphor of Fast-Flexible-Flow can be used to modify
standard Scrum practices as needed. Additionally, Scrum#'s enterprise view and
Lean Management philosophy will be the basis for creating an Enterprise/Organization
wide team to manage dependencies across teams without command and control. This
webinar covers:
·
Why Scrum works
·
How Lean-Thinking can identify root cause of problems
·
How to use Lean-Thinking to eliminate delays
·
Breaking down the silos between development and Quality Assurance
·
How to coordinate multiple development teams so that they work
together - going beyond Scrum-of-Scrums
Avoiding Coupling and Using Mocks in Agile Environments 1pm PDT
While full up-front designs are
not the proper approach in virtually all agile projects, no design up front can
also be a problem. This webinar discusses some techniques for decoupling
modules early on. In other words, although we may not know how things will
change, we often know of dependencies between modules that will morph over
time. This webinar presents three case studies:
·
Decoupling informational dependencies between components
·
How to define the API for a component being built by one group and
used by another
·
Using mocks to never be blocked - avoiding delays caused by
dependencies of different tiers
