In this week's Podcast we're on to the penultimate Agile Principle, number 11: 'The best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing teams.'Amongst much more, we discuss:-How what should actually constitute a team is the sharing of a problem, not a manager.-The importance of employing a dynamic team approach, rather than a static one, to solving problems.-How the unique specificity of this principle is designed to get us away from the old 'phase' approach and avoid costly hand-offs.-Specific techniques to inspire a mutiny and become a self-organizing team, with some lessons from Stephen Bungay's 'The Art of Action', such as how to employ Direct Opportunism.-The Spotify model and the importance of shunning the easy route of adopting an off-the-shelf model.***SHOWNOTES:-The 12 Agile Principles: http://agilemanifesto.org/principles.html -Alistair Cockburn's mighty fine Koan for Agile development:"Management tells the workers to mutiny.The workers refuse"http://alistair.cockburn.us/Self-organization+means+mutiny -Stephen Bungay's brilliant book, 'The Art of Action': https://www.amazon.co.uk/Art-Action-Leaders-between-Actions/dp/1857885597/-The unique case of the General Electric plant in Durham, North Carolina:http://www.fastcompany.com/magazine/28/ge.html-Spotify's self-organised teams, not an off-the-shelf model to copy: https://labs.spotify.com/2014/03/27/spotify-engineering-culture-part-1/-Sign up to CITCON in Vienna, there aren't many spaces left: http://citconf.com/***We'd love to hear any thoughts, ideas or feedback you have regarding the show.Email us: [email protected]Tweet us: twitter.com/TShootingAgileAlso, if you'd like to leave us a review on iTunes (or just like and subscribe), you'll find us here: itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/troub…d1327456890?mt=2
