Engineering Culture by InfoQ

In this podcast recorded at Agile 2019, Shane Hastie, Lead Editor for Culture & Methods, spoke to Scott Ambler of Disciplined Agile about the DA toolkit and taking agile beyond software devlopment Why listen to this podcast • Disciplined Agile is a toolkit which provides a view of agile adoption at four levels – software development, DevOps, IT departments and whole enterprise • The toolkit provides context and questions to help you to make better choices for the specific context each team is working in and to do process improvement • Consistency across teams should not be a goal of agile adoption – each team is different, and they must inspect and adapt in ways that work best for their context. There is no one size fits all • Guided continuous improvement gives teams and organisations a head start on improvement by identifying patterns that have worked elsewhere, showing the choices available and the trade-offs that need to be made between different approaches • Good governance is all about motivation, enablement, monitoring and transparency, ideally with an automated framework – not bureaucracy and manual checks. Transparency over false predictability More on this: Quick scan our curated show notes on InfoQ https://bit.ly/3fwQyiZ You can also subscribe to the InfoQ newsletter to receive weekly updates on the hottest topics from professional software development. bit.ly/24x3IVq Subscribe: www.youtube.com/infoq Like InfoQ on Facebook: bit.ly/2jmlyG8 Follow on Twitter: twitter.com/InfoQ Follow on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/infoq Check the landing page on InfoQ: https://bit.ly/3fwQyiZ
