Working to the Cake-limit
September 10, 2012
When team transition from an iteration-based (i.e. Scrum) to a more flow-based (i.e. Kanban) approach to software development they often stand 3 big risks; no planning, no retrospectives and no celebrations. Which, when you look at it, just leaves work work work.
Exactly - I wouldn’t want that either.
In this post I’ll show you a little trick I picked up to handle the last one; no celebrations. I know I’ve stolen it from somewhere, but for the life of me I cannot remember where. Please enlighten me and I’ll attribute you accordingly. [UPDATE] I picked this thing up from Joakim Sundén (see comments). Yet another thing he has thought me. Thanks dude! In iteration based approaches to software development there’s a natural end point, goal for the current work; the end of the sprint or iteration. That’s one of the really great things about Scrum I think....
