The workplace is often a very serious place to be in. Face all tightened up, shoulders raised, and way too few smiles. Humour can do so much for people’s motivation and general atmosphere. Sanjeev NC creates wonderful content on serious topics and is one of the geniuses behind Supermeme.ai, an AI machine that generates memes on business content. He joins Sander to talk about Humour in the Workspace.   What you’ll discover in this show:–        How Supermeme.ai can help your business  –        The wonderful videos and other content by Sanjeev –        What a smile can doSanjeev NCSupermeme.ai - AI memes | Office Meetings TikTok Videos | Product @ SuperOps.ai | Business HumorA generalist, by default. I truly believe in the generalist vision and I'm working on building a wide array of skills in the first 10 years of my career. I started my career in customer support, then transitioned into sales, then moved into marketing, and now a product manager. I started selling when I was in support, started speaking at conferences when I was in sales, and started building products when I was in marketing. The transition was natural.   I want to change the way technology is being supported right now and I believe that I will one day make a team of Customer Experience Engineers whose prime focus would actually be to focus on great customer experience rather than their individual roles (Sales, Pre Sales, Support, Marketing or Success). Contact Sanjeev: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sanjeev-nc/  Sander Dur (host)Scrum Master, Agile Coach, trainer, and podcast host for ‘Mastering Agility”Sander Dur is a Professional Scrum Trainer at Scrum.org, podcast host of Mastering Agility, Professional Scrum Master, and Lead Agile Consultant and trainer at Xebia.

This week we have a cross-episode with the guys from the Agile Wire! After some pleasantries, we jump into the topic of psychological safety in the workplace. How important this can be for teams and organizations to enable a level of comfort for actual conflict to emerge. Here in the Midwest sometimes we struggle with giving feedback to each other. Thoughts about enabling the ability to bring your whole self to work.Focus on problems and not individuals.COIN Feedback modelContextObservationImpactsNext stepsLeading by example. Discussing how things are going to be when there is conflict. Structure follows culture – examples of some structures that we’ve seen companies employ in order to facilitate openness and transparency.We jump into values and how different teams and organizations that use them. All too often they are meaningless posters set up on a wall, or a conversation in onboarding, and rarely else. Tying back to structures, if we don’t build the systems to highlight and reinforce the values we should expect them to erode over time.Bring your whole self to work. It means you’re the same person at home that you are at work. It shouldn’t feel like you’re meeting a whole new person when you engage outside of work. From a business perspective is it valuable to have your employees waste their thinking capital trying to be a different person at work when they could be applying that towards your business goals?Support the showContact us at:Masteringagility.orghttps://xebia.com/academy/nl/trainers/sander-durhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jamessammons/https://www.linkedin.com/in/sanderdur/Hosted by Ausha.

After a few days of following a course, they are now the experts of agility. But does that really support you and your organization in creating the right value? True power comes from empowerment.

In 2001, a group of people with all different styles of developing software came together in a cabin in Utah to find commonalities in all their individual styles. They already knew that traditional, waterfall approached project couldn’t cut it anymore, but what would? The Agile Manifesto was written in that cabin. A manifesto that would have a massive impact on the way we develop products. Arie van Bennekum, part of that group. joins us today to discuss how they got to their agreement in the first place, what he feels is the state of it after 20 years, and how to move forward.  What you’ll discover in this show:-        The manifesto is a fundamental set of principles when working with business agility -        Agility has no end state.

What happens when it’s created, who’s going to clean up?Luke Hohmann joins us today to talk about FirstRoot, and what the impact and potential are of participatory budgeting.

In last week’s episode, Heidi Helfand talked to us about her book “Dynamic Reteaming”. Dynamic Reteaming has great potential to provide when treated correctly. We took the Tuckman model and stable teams for granted for decades. Now Dynamic Reteaming is taking over in complex domains.The thing with theory is, though, that theory does not always map well in practice. Theory is picture-perfect, while practice almost never is. Chris Smith, Head of Product Delivery at Redgate Software, provides a great case study of how this can work in practice!  What you’ll discover in this show:-        What format Redgate uses to do Dynamic Reteaming-        How softskills come to play when working with trust-        What benefits were uncovered at Redgate  Speakers:Chris SmithHead of Product Delivery at Redgate SoftwareChris is Head of Product Delivery at Redgate.

Do you know how most organizations and frameworks advocate for keeping stable teams? Where there is little change in team composition? Today we’re talking about doing the exact opposite. Where a change in team structure is welcome.Heidi Helfand, the author of the book Dynamic Reteaming, sits down with us to discuss the benefits that could be achieved by having more occurring change, rather than keeping things the way they are.  What you’ll discover in this show:-        How Dynamic Reteaming relates to the Tuckman model-        What the effect is on the delivery of value-        What potential could be missed when keeping teams the way they are   Speakers:Heidi HelfandAuthor of Dynamic ReteamingHeidi Helfand is the author of the book Dynamic Reteaming.

Peter Drucker famously said: “You can’t improve what you can’t measure”. Measurements and metrics are incredibly useful when it comes to product improvement, having the desire to get a better market position or just improvement of yourself as an individual. But then the next challenge; what to measure? And why?Magdalena Firlit, Agile Transformation Consultant and Professional Scrum Trainer, talks to us about the PAL-EBM (Professional Agile Leadership Management with Evidence-Based Management) framework. Patricia Kong was a guest earlier this year to talk about EBM, but how does it relate to leadership?  What you’ll discover in this show:-        You can start creating metrics at any time-        It’s a dialogue between (top-level) management and teams, not a top-down approach-        Measuring less than all four Key Value Areas leaves out great potential data   Speakers:Magdalena FirlitAgile Transformation ConsultantI am a Professional Scrum Trainer, Agile transformation consultant, trainer, mentor, life and business coach (graduated postgraduate university course in coaching (ICF compliant) and training. I am also a lecturer at the Universities teaching a postgraduate course for managers “Holilider”, Introduction to Agile and Agile Leadership. I gained many years of professional experience, working for several companies, observing their Agility path. I specialize in Agile transformation. I cooperate with organizations of various sizes (large, medium, small, start-ups) and with all levels – from teams to C-level. It is most important to me to understand company needs, why do they want to change, what benefits does the transformation brings.Contact Magdalenahttps://magdalenafirlit.com/agileinthespotlight.comhttps://www.youtube.com/c/MagdalenaFirlitAgileInTheSpotlight/featuredhttps://twitter.com/magda_firlithttps://www.linkedin.com/in/magdalenafirlit/Sander Dur (host)Scrum Master, Agile Coach, trainer, and podcast host for ‘Mastering Agility”Sander Dur is a business agility enthusiast, with a passion for people.

Ever since the industrial revolution, we’ve been working with bosses and managers. Two/three decades ago, business agility started to take over the way organizations have been developing their products and thinking about how to overcome the challenges they’re facing. Now we’re in the second half of 2021, and David Pereira sees a massive impediment in making an agile transformation stick. In today’s show, David discusses what he sees could potentially introduce the end of Scrum.  What you’ll discover in this show:-        The current state of Scrum implementations could be improved-        Leadership and management plays a crucial role in that-        Letting go of command and control is keeping organizations from advancing Speakers:David PereiraHead of Product ManagementI am a passionate Product Leader with ten years of product management experience. Over the last years, I led many product teams in successful endeavors.  Some highlights of my journey are: • Reinventing the route planning for thousands of people over Brazil. I led this project from concept to go-live. It resulted in 4M USD cost saving with a 200K USD investment. • Innovate the secondhand car market in Brazil. We created a business of 200M USD per year. I was responsible for three Product Teams. I led them in discovering solutions that innovated this market. • Exponential marketplace growth: from 500K € to 45M € revenue per year. My role was to find alternatives on how to scale the business, I was the Product Owner of it.  Curiosity drives me daily. My biggest fear is the comfort zone. Curiosity spurs action; knowledge kills it.   One of my hobbies is writing articles. I share my ideas on Medium, and I'm an editor at Serious Scrum.Contact David:https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidavpereira/Sander Dur (host)Scrum Master, Agile Coach, trainer, and podcast host for ‘Mastering Agility”Sander Dur is a business agility enthusiast, with a passion for people.

People are complex. When we work with other people for a while, the probability that some form of conflict will arise goes up. Conflict can be truly uncomfortable. However, no progress is without conflict. It’s the way we handle it that creates that progress. Constructive disagreements with the right support can be very powerful. Communication is key. But it could go sideways real fast, too.In this episode of Mastering Agility, Tricia Broderick (leadership and organizational advisor, founder at Ignite) is passionately open about what conflict does to her, how teams and organizations can use it, and a whole lot more! What you’ll discover in this show:-        The difference between drama and conflict-        Conflict, when handled correctly, is useful in your evolution as a team-        What to do with feedback that’s not that clear   Speakers:Tricia BroderickFounder at Ignite insight + innovation Tricia Broderick is a leadership and organizational advisor.
