Tired of playing the guessing game with deadlines?

Sticking your finger in the air and picking random dates just doesn't cut it when stakeholders ask: “When will it be done?”.

Are you overburdened with endless meetings, debating story points, converting them into hours, or dissecting velocity charts, only to find your predictions still missing the mark?

If deadlines or contractual commitments are part of your world, there’s a better way.

At our next Agile Minds Romania online meetup, Lorenzo Santoro & Benjamin Huser-Berta will share their journey of moving from outdated planning methods to probabilistic forecasting powered by Monte Carlo simulations.

They’ll also dive into how this shift has impacted Developers, Product Owners and other stakeholders.

Ready to take your planning game to the next level?

🚀 Meetup Recap 22.10.2024: Overcoming Scaling Challenges in Multi-Team Development!

We had an awesome session yesterday evening with Adrian-Emil SUCIU, diving into scaling and multi-team development. If you missed it, don’t worry—we’ve got you covered with a quick recap or you can watch the session on Youtube: https://youtu.be/CTgOyY1e-7s

What is Scaling?

It’s not just about growing teams or products—scaling means more complexity and communication hurdles. We talked about how this impacts both people and processes.

Why is Scaling Hard?

Mistakes happen in complex environments. We discussed common traps like throwing more people at problems ("Mythical Man-Month" 🧑‍💻) and anti-patterns like big teams and fragmented work.

Cynefin Framework, by Dave Snowden

We explored how work falls into Clear, Complicated, Complex, or Chaotic quadrants and how each needs a different approach to scaling.

Real Scenarios, Real Solutions

We tackled real issues like No Clear Vision or Poor Communication and brainstormed how these problems impact teams. The solutions? Things like clearer vision and consistent communication (sounds simple, right? But it’s a game-changer!). We also discussed how leadership misalignment or ignoring company culture can completely derail scaling efforts.

Key Takeaways:

🚀 Business Agility: Stay flexible to keep delivering value.

🚌 The Bus Factor: Spread knowledge, avoid bottlenecks.

🌀 Cynefin Framework, by Dave Snowden: We used this powerful tool to figure out where our work falls—Clear, Complicated, Complex, or Chaotic—and how to approach each situation differently while scaling.

📖 "The Mythical Man-Month: Essays on Software Engineering", Frederick P. Brooks Jr.: Adding more people doesn’t fix late projects.

📖 "Switch" by Chip Heath & Dan Heath: Change is hard, but this book provides some solid strategies for overcoming resistance and leading teams through transformation.
