Welcome to Platinum B.A.R.S. (Berriault Agile Roadmap System). This is a great opportunity to help enhance current agile teams, grow agile delivery behaviours to other teams, or start an agile transformation with a strong foundation on the WHY of being agile.
The value for the program includes.
Included: A private online community to continue support and knowledge sharing during the course and after completion.
Although the end product is to have a roadmap to the path of being agile you will be able to start work and implement changes after each section. You will discover quick hits that can make a difference right away.
What is in the roadmap?
It is a three-component system with three sub-components to achieve business and technical agility throughout the organization.
The roadmap is set up where you can start with a team, a department, or the entire enterprise. It allows attendees to grow agility organically and not try to force in change. The organic way of agility growth creates exponentially more value to everyone than just implementing an agile framework.
Component 1 - Foundation
Without a strong foundation in agility, there will be constant struggles. Whether it is between team members, teams, or departments without that foundational view of agility value will diminish.
Section 1 - Start
Whether you are about to do an agile transformation or have already implemented it there needs to be a baseline. This section here gets through the basic understanding of the right agile behaviours needed to succeed. It provides the ability to find the gaps or underlying issues causing frustrations
- Understanding agile values
Section 2 - Goals
Without goals, teams are a rudderless ship trying to navigate through their agile journey. Here we look at clarifying the right goals for the right teams to succeed.
- Understanding innovation
Section 3 - Design
Imagine an environment effectively designed based on strategy. No longer focused on the tactical. Producing value to the customers and to those within the organization.
- Start with Servant Leader
Component 2 - System
When talking about systems we do not go through what is being built. We talk about the system of how the work is done.
Section 1 - Pathway
After determining the goals now it is the time for the team to determine their pathway to get there.
- Understand needs over wants
Section 2 - Continuous improvement
To be agile means that there is a progression to improving value, to the customers as well as the organization as a whole. To find the improvements and measure the qualitative and quantitative methods are needed.
- Improvement identification process
Section 3 - Trust
In the previous component, the foundation of trust is built. Now we evolve and enhance it even more.
- Understanding the expectations of agile values
Component 3- Scale
This is not about SAFe©. This is about scaling the agile behaviours through the team and into the organization. At this point, the team will be running on all cylinders and achieving new limits of value add. Here we discuss working with other teams, internally and externally, to reach higher limits.
Section 1 - Quality
Quality of the product, service, work everything that is done quality is what everyone wants. They want to produce it and help everyone else succeed at it.
- Understanding changing priorities
Section 2 - Maturity
Although this section is called maturity in the end it is about evolution. Unlike CMMi and other maturity models being agile is about a continuous flow of improvements. There is no limit to what teams can achieve. There does need to be maturity in their discipline to foster evolution.
- What constitutes an agile environment
Section 3 - Scale
Now we set up the organic growth of agility. Teams and leadership will see the improvements and higher value achievement and wat the same thing.
- Have the right agile operating system for your organization
