Things I miss.....

Things I miss....

1. A display of committed vs achieved.
2. A view to what is blocking.
3. An integration that happens on every logical point as opposed to complete story point.
4. An ambiguous requirement that you encountered mid way.
5. A design that evolves with audit.
6. A user story that is sliced enough to know what is achievable and when.
7. A glimpse to non-availability that is blocking.
8. A list of leftovers every 2 weeks
9. A list of leftover gulped every 2 weeks.
10. An impediment found early
11. A build that says all is right and ready to go.
12. Board that truly reveals the work in progress.
13. A retrospective that truly reveals the good, the bad and the ugly
14. A loud shout of "Yes I have done it"
15. A call to review small things that build up large blocks
16. A scrum where huddling is allowed
17. A demonstration that comes with high value feedback
18. A contribution of how best it can be done.
19. A list we call "Technical Debt"
20. A process that is looked to be improved and evolved.
21. An estimate that cuddles the requirement
22. A practice that cares for User experience more than technology
23. An attitude that says "Customers are not Gods"
24. A High Five
25. A WOW
26. A Great Idea
27. A "That's Kewl"
28. A "Why not?"
29. Clarity of what is to be achieved and why
30. A Goal, that's just not completing a story point
31. A pat for an orthodox approach
32. A non traditional success pattern


I miss "Agile...." I really do.....

From the old books... Curated a list of things that a agile developer would always miss. My part is here.. what is yours?

  1. A lot of things we bring under a frame, and pre-assumption and pre-justice, make it narrow.
    We at times look beyond the frame.
    We at times correct it,
    We at times reached our goal
    We at times shouted about success…
    But all that tells us we [could] do not keep things all the time.
    Again, it reminds me of being disciplined, discipline in every manner. We know being disciplined with “time” plays an important role, to all successful stories.

    Finally Agile = discipline

    1. Absolutely Balaji. A key element to any development models success is the discipline and self discipline.....
