I'm a geek who loves agile teams and guiding their development to hyper-productivity through self-organisation within complex boundaries. I'm not afraid to write a bit of code either.

Using Cost of Delay to de-scale your organisation through decentralised decision making
30 Mins
Talk
Intermediate
It isn’t enough to break down our portfolio into small pieces and execute them in isolation from one another. We must acknowledge that variance in knowledge work is a fact of life, specialists are scarce, people find new jobs, life happens. Rather than think of an organisation as individual parts to be managed, think of it as a living organism which adapts and responds as a whole.
By empowering people to take decisions based on objective data linked to a shared vision people are not simply playing a game according to a set of rules, they are responsible for the game.
Don Reinertsen in his seminal book "The Principles of Product Development Flow" states:
"If you only quantify one thing, quantify the Cost of Delay. "
In this talk I will present how the Cost of Delay can be derived from data your organisation has lying around how you can super charge decision making speed and consequently the flow of value.
