Re: [OSList] Agile culture - video (X-posted OS/GC-list)

[Michael Herman via OSList]

There are a few more interesting points along this curve, where I would
suggest that Agile has been growing up and beginning to learn that they've
been working in OS all along.  My own sense is that Agile, like OS, is a
naturally occurring human phenomenon, and we just have to get/keep out of
our own way.  I've found it an easy addition to my OS practice.

A few more bits of background.  And then an invitation.

After that first conference in 2002, the Agile Alliance has kept some form
of OS going at every conference since then, even as it's gotten maybe 10x
bigger than the original.  Then something called the Scrum Gathering,
another conference of 1000s also started using OS for a big chunk of one
day.  Those conferences are a long way from ongoing OS practice in
organization, but the 2007 one I facilitated stood out for me as the first
time I'd ever been walking around a conference, overhearing references to
"...open space..." where folks were talking about their organization/work
and not the conference event itself.

Along the way, Diana Larsen, as Alliance president, had Larry Peterson, and
later myself, facilitate Agile Alliance board retreats in a very OS sort of
way, sewing more seeds with active leaders in the community.  One of the
things that came out of that was the Agile Open program, where the Alliance
would advance seed money for regional OS Agile conferences.  Diana could
say more about how that worked.  What I've seen is that many agile practice
groups meet monthly and use an OS type of format sometimes, often or
always.  Many regional conferences have a big slice of OS as part of the
program, too.

I think Daniel and I first talked about Invitation and OS in 2010 or 2011,
and again maybe 2013 or 14.  Around that same time, Sandra Walsh was
working on a PhD in Ireland, studying the use of OS to initiate agile
projects.  She showed why OS was a better way to identify needs and vision
and distill them into technical requirements.  She called her approach
OpenXP (XP refers to one of the original bodies of agile practice called
Extreme Programming).

I was also part of Daniel's learning Agile group in 2015.  I found the
methods easy to learn, the local community easy to join, and by the end of
2016 I'd started doing some work as a Scrum Master and later Agile Coach.
I find when I stand in an organization, as an Agile Coach, my posture,
sensing, instincts, inclinations, challenges, approach, etc are exactly the
same as when I stand in the middle of an OS event.  The heart of both
practices is inviting!

In 2018 or so, Jutta Eckstein and John Buck wrote a book called BOSSA Nova,
which outlined their work to combine OS with some other methods for
company-wide agility (ready company-wide ongoing open space).  They
combined Beyond Budgeting, OS, Sociocracy, and Agile.
I was a contributor to that book and tried to help agilists understand the
difference(s) between "conference OS" and "organization OS."  One of the
stories shared was the story of what Walmart did with Daniel's OSA model,
in 30+ OS events.  A favorite I've posted previously to the OSLIST.

Which is all to say that Agile has been learning its way into OS for a long
time, almost as long as Agile has been "a thing" in itself.  And now it's
escaping IT into whole organizations and even work in communities.

If you've been facilitating OS, the Agile community is a vast network
people and body of practice where you'll likely find people who are
familiar, understand, and appreciate OS.  You might find skepticism too,
but not very much, I think.  I'd encourage anyone who's curious to check
MeetUp.com for public, monthly, agile groups/meetings near you.  They seem
to be almost everywhere.  Chicago must have at least five of them now, for
instance.

I'd be glad to help others get over any perceived "humps" or barriers to
learning more about Agile.  Ping me off list if you like.

Re: [OSList] Agile culture - video (X-posted OS/GC-list) the next step

[R Chaffe via OSList]

Certainly worth review.  It is a great “story” well illustrated.  The structure 
allows you to stop, discuss, move on and build a reaction/response in a 
constructive way.

So much of Open Space is the glue that holds such behaviour together.   Right 
now we need to brake the shackles of “winner take all” as the chaos in the 
Wider community is dominated by a few who seek total control.   Such stories 
rise about the normal debate level and pose challenges that can be discussed 
and consensus is a real outcome.

Too many people in the world feel they have no “voice” and as nations disappear 
under the sea or in the conflagration of wild fire.   Leaders choose to seek 
diversions from the real question of the sustainability of the whole world.

Videos like this provide choices and help move conversations to levels that can 
address the big issues rather than who has power.

Statesmanship is required, sorry I do not have a gender neutral way of 
describing this.  One reason is that it is so rare we do not have common nouns 
in our common conversations to describe these persons and their behaviour.

The video captures this tension and asks can we use these ideas on a global 
scale?  The answer is an emphatic YES.  Remember “the power of one” and the 
impact that each of us can make if we chose this “way less travelled”.  My 
limited mobility combined with my health issues requires that I work on myself 
and my small circle of friends.  My challenge to the young healthy and mobile 
of us will you give it a go?  The rewards are simply a healthy place to live 
well into the future.  The consequences are that in a very short time we will 
have nowhere to live and survival will become a life threatening activity.

Rob

Re: [OSList] Agile culture - video (X-posted OS/GC-list)

[Daniel Mezick via OSList]

Greetings to All, 

This is an interesting thread to say the least. Agile culture...


Regarding The Push or Infliction of Agile without Consent

Imposed Agile is now a worldwide epidemic. An epidemic of...closed space. 


2006

Martin Fowler, an Agile Manifesto signatory, warned about the folly and harm of 
imposing "agile" on people

The whole industry looks the other way, and still does to this day: 

"...Imposing an agile process from the outside strips the team of the 
self-determination which is at the heart of agile thinking.

"personally I'd rather have a team work in a non-agile manner they chose 
themselves than have my favorite agile practices imposed upon them.
"So I hope I've made clear that imposing agile methods is a very red flag." 
-Martin Fowler, 2006



2012

No one with a prominent voice except Martin Fowler (and maybe Ron Jeffries once 
in a while) wanted to talk about the folly and harm and horror of imposed 
"agile" practices back in 2012, or 2013, or 2014, or 2015. Too much money at 
stake !


In 2011/2012 I started experimenting, in client engagements, with 
"before-and-after OST" with 90 days of enterprise-level experimentation in the 
middle. By 2012 I had something working pretty good! The results were very 
strong for the client, although it did tend to reduce how long I needed to be 
there at very high bill rates...

...I started Tweeting a leading questions, questions like "don't the folks have 
to be truly engaged for any of this agile stuff to work? Don't they have to 
want it, for it to work?"


2013

As a result of those Tweets, in September of 2013 I received an invite to 
keynote the Global Scrum Gathering in Paris France, which I accepted. I 
delivered a speech called DARE TO INVITE which was description of OpenSpace 
Agility, aka "OSA". 

OSA creates 90 day waves of change punctuated by whole-group Open Space events 
that a) look back and inspect those results and b) look forward plan the next 
90-wave. With the whole enterprise. Every 90 days. 

It has since spread throughout the world. There are over 1000 people who have 
been trained in OSA. Based on OST, it is being used worldwide for enterprise 
agility at scale. 

The good news is: almost anywhere that whole-group Open Space is used at the 
enterprise level in Agile adoptions, the results are much better. You can see 
video testimonials from executives, managers, developers and UX people, here: 
https://openspaceagility.com/testimonial-videos/


2015

Around 2015 I taught some agile stuff online, for free, to people from OSLIST, 
under the auspices and authority of OSI-US. It was all by invitation to just a 
few people. I recall that Lisa Heft, Tricia and "a few others from around here" 
did attend those sessions. I taught the Agile fundamentals. Scrum. Kanban. Etc. 
At the time, the idea was to bring some OST people into the Agile space, to 
open it up a little bit. Eventually I even invited Tricia C. to help me out in 
some of my accounts, doing agile stuff with me here and there and even 
facilitating a big OSA-OST event at Intuit in Boston.

Even with this progress, things started to get worse. The imposition of Agile 
became a kind of epidemic. Agile quickly became mostly all about transactions. 
Some folks were making millions per year on coercive, forced-march "trance 
formations." (Many still are.)


2016

In 2016, I met Mike Beedle. Another Agile-Manifesto signatory. Unlike almost 
all the other prominent voices, Mike was 100% OK calling out all the imposed 
"agile" going around. Very few of the other prominent voices were saying 
anything. This is still the case today !



NOW...

Since 2016, there is widespread and growing acknowledgement that the agile 
world has actually degraded further. The good news is that there is a new 
generation, of new and open-minded leaders that are unapologetically ALWAYS 
using Open Space, usually inside OSA iterations, as a way to invite and engage 
everyone in the change, everyone, instead of "rolling it out" and inflicting 
Agile practices on teams and managers without their consent. 

OpenSpace Agility is not a Agile framework. It is an engagement model you ADD 
to your framework. And Open Space is the key and central element that makes it 
go. 



Open Source Licensing for Culture Tech:

OSA is a freely available engagement model you can add to whatever you are 
using. It is published under an open source license. Feel free: anyone can 
derive from it and even commercialize that derivation. For an example of this 
kind of open-source spread of OST and OSA, take a look at OpenSpaceBeta.com 
from Niels Pflaeging which derives from and is based upon the the foundations 
of OSA and the open source license: 

https://www.openspacebeta.com/license/

Open source licensing for culture technology is very important. You can learn 
more about that here, and affix your name to the Declaration On Progress: 

https://openleadershipnetwork.com/onprogress/

In the future,

just started laughing. "Guys," I said, "You do realize that you're making 
software in Open Space!"  My short explanation of that characterization is that 
in both Agile and OS, "We put all the most important stuff on the wall.  And 
then we get it done."

Fast forward to 2017, Mike Beedle, one of the original co-authors of the Agile 
Manifesto 
(agilemanifesto.org),
 launched a framework for (whole) Business or Enterprise Agility.  The 
foundation of that is an adapted "Business Model Canvas."  Mike and I used to 
muse about whether the 9-15 boxes on those canvases were so many small open 
spaces (on important dimensions of the work, or if it was really one big open 
space with a finite number of predictable tracks of work (e.g. purpose, 
customer, metrics, team practices, resources, governance, value delivery, and 
so on).  Either way, we always agreed that Mike's Enterprise Scrum canvas-based 
framework was surely a form of Ongoing Open Space.

Since then, in practice, I've found that following an OS meeting with work in 
an Enterprise Scrum canvas, the canvas being a way to keep the marketplace open 
and loosely organized going forward, is a somewhat more rigorous but also 
natural enough way to support "keeping the work going" after the OS.

Overall, what I like about the pairing of OS and Agile approaches is this:  The 
strong invitation, engagement, alignment that arises so quickly and easily in 
OS doesn't automatically lead into rigorous action, if the organization doesn't 
already have that rigor active in itself.  At the same time, Agile approaches 
bring an easy, natural rigor to work, but don't necessarily invite, engage and 
align.  Imposed, and Too Narrow (closed), understanding of Agile, Value and 
Transformation too often have Agile teams working very rigorously but not as 
smart and aligned as they really want/need to be.

Some combination of open (space) invitation and operational (agile) rigor, 
however, in the same/shared spirit of self-organization, is my favorite way to 
play these days.

I love your story, Michael. I’m another person who had the privilege of seeing 
Spotify close up a while back, been involved in events there with colleagues, 
and have enjoyed watching it grow over time. 

My connection with them began in 2012, and that came about because of another 
related idea, the Agile Fluency Model. The leaders were among the first to 
recognize the synergies of multiple good ideas.

Thanks for starting this thread, Thomas!

[OSList] Agile culture - video (X-posted OS/GC-list)

[Thomas Herrmann via OSList]

Dear friends in Open Space

I had an interesting meeting today with a person in a large IT company and I
was reminded about this video, I think I shared it here before but it’s
worth watching again – I noticed! This link leads to the full 25 min video,
about the Agile Culture in Spotify company. There are shorter versions too,
but I recommend the full if you are really interested. Lots of good stuff
and interesting to understanding more about this approach and how it can be
used in a healthy way (as it sounds). I know it can also be ”mis-used” just
like OST.

We had some great conversations and areas of collaboration we will explore
bringing OST and GC into that company. 

Wishing you lots of open space for fun during the coming weekend

Hugs
