There is no 1 way of working or 1 way to improve ways of working, only antipatterns & patterns that have been observed more often than not to hinder or help the delivery of Better Value Sooner Safer Happier. Use them as inspiration & experiment to find what works for you. #BVSSH

Our EMEA meetup returns from Summer Break with a fantastic event... Agile HR in a Nutshell with Pia-Maria Thorén @piamia2 Author of Agile People: A Radical Approach for HR & Managers (That Leads to Motivated Employees) #BVSSH #AgileHR #BusinessAgility meetup.com/sooner-safer-h…

The words 'convince' & 'resistance' should not enter the vocabulary. Start with why and invite over inflict Get behind the natural champions, start where there is pull. Prove benefits in context, starting small and communicate, communicate, communicate. Change is social #BVSSH

Nested outcomes are represented vertically, from multi-year strategic intent down to daily stories Aligned OKRs (multi year, annual, quarterly) provide strategic alignment and a fast feedback loop. Note align, not cascade. Teams of teams and teams author their own OKRs #BVSSH

Only two seats left for our May 26/27th BVSSH Business Agility Fundamentals Training...grab them while you can! soonersaferhappier.com/training/ #BVSSH

Soonest time to value, to learning, with the cheapest cost of intelligent failure. Over a sunk cost fallacy, late learning and an expensive cost of failure. #BVSSH

Leadership behaviour will make it or break it. Be a leader, not a commander. Role model desired behaviours and accompany colleagues on the journey. Be the change that you wish to see. #BVSSH

Join us at our next EMEA meetup... Kieran Neeson Director at Waters Corporation shares his Team of Teams' journey of experimentation with Better Value Sooner Safer Happier #BVSSH #OKRs #BusinessAgility #Lean #Agility #NorthStar #ValueStream meetup.com/sooner-safer-h…

Agile is not the goal. Neither is Lean or DevOps. Focus on Outcomes. Better Value Sooner Safer Happier is the goal. #BVSSH

Business architecture = people architecture = technical architecture = business architecture … Antipattern: org design without consideration of the flow of value or the technical architecture. #BVSSH

Amazing talk by @jonsmart @BVSSH_ ... "Culture eats everything for breakfast" 👍 #SEACON2022

Don't let Monday get you down! Pick up a book and a cuppa instead.

Observation: people can have experienced better ways of working at other organisations and yet are still unable to change things for the better at their current organisation. Enablers: incentive, support and safety. #BVSSH

"When we started...the outcome we were working towards was about getting knowledge out of the heads of individuals. But what I feel that we’ve actually done is create high-performing, autonomous teams that take ownership of their work." @TeamTopologies medium.com/humans-of-xero…

If you catch yourself saying "the business", try saying "our business" instead #BVSSH

Antipattern: Agile Maturity Model. There is no 5 out of 5. There is no done. An org can be 'doing Agile' and the outcomes not improve. Agile, Lean, DevOps are a means to an end, figuratively-speaking tools in the toolbox, not the goal. Pattern: Focus on the Outcomes. #BVSSH

@c_combe @jonsmart Could you pass this on @c_combe? We hope it helps :)

3Ms of OKRs: Mindset, Mission and Measurement. Mindset: Emergent over Deterministic. Empowering. Mission: Outcome over Output. Inspirational. Measurement: Movement & Behaviour. Leading & Lagging. An OK OKR needs all three. #BVSSH
