Scale collaboration, not process.If you're trying to use agile and lean at the program level, you've heard of several approaches, all about scaling processes.

Learn to collaborate around deliverables, not meetings. Learn which measurements to use and how to use those measures to help people deliver more of what you want (value) and less of what you don't want (work in progress). Create an environment of servant leadership and small-world networks. Learn to enable autonomy, collaboration, and exploration across the organization and deliver your product.Scale collaboration with agile and lean program management and deliver your product.

You'll increase your productivity, track your progress, evaluate your work, gain feedback, and throw out what doesn't work while building on your successes. Learn from your past career to optimize for your next step. Full of tips, stories, and humor, you'll apply practical techniques to take control of the most important project you'll ever work on: find your next best job.
KNOWLEDGE WORKERS - our geeks - are different from skill-based staff, which makes hiring great ones elusive at best. But whether you're a manager or team member, this is the single most important decision you can make due to its long-lasting impact. Because GREAT GEEKS adapt their knowledge to your context, one developer or technical manager is NOT interchangeable with another. HIRING THE RIGHT GEEKS, the ones who ¿t your culture, requires you to analyze your culture, determine your problems, and de¿ne the essential qualities you want in your candidates. HIRING GEEKS THAT FIT removes the guesswork from the hiring process, reduces your risk for costly hiring mistakes...and allows you to ¿nd the absolute best person for the job. So, strategize, analyze, and hire the best! Hiring Geeks That Fit will help you: 1. Understand your culture to build a strong hiring foundation. 2. Develop the best hiring strategy. 3. Analyze your open position. What's really essential? 4. Develop effective ads for different mediums, like social media and user groups. 5. Develop behavior-description questions to differentiate the talkers from those who've actually done work that's relevant to your needs. 6. Use those questions in phone-screens, in-person interviews, and references. 7. Treat candidates with respect, so even those you reject are potential referrals. 8. Create great ¿rst-day hire experiences so your new hire doesn't keep looking. . . AND MUCH MORE!
