We discuss five tips for helping your teams adopt more intermediate level practices, as well as hearing feedback from an engineering perspective on each of those tips (what works in reality, challenges you may face, ways to further improve that practice).
This episode features Brajendra Yadav and Sean Coleman, two Agile practitioners who have been working in fintech, insurance and banking companies in Hong Kong for many years.
The tips discussed are: Vary the basic practices, set up a self-assessment framework, have meaningful retrospectives, set clear working agreements, and visualise all aspects of performance.
We interview Jelena Uljankina and hear about her journey to becoming an Agile coach. She tells us about how she got started, how small wins encourage positivity, getting the most out of JIRA, the importance of Sprint Goals, and how she varies her coaching approach for different markets across Asia.
We chat to Claudia Wong and Tim Mohrbach to learn about how their Agile teams have managed to keep going strong, despite the difficulties brought about due to COVID-19.
We speak with Kevin Liu and Julien Chabe about their experiences with starting Agile transformation initiatives in large organisations in Hong Kong. We discuss the roles played by different levels of management, success metrics, frameworks and how to sustain the change.
