商品描述
Agile teams have been struggling with the concept of continuous improvement since the first Agile frameworks were developed, and still very little has been written about the practice of continuous improvement in Agile environments. Although team retrospectives have been prescribed and some practices have been introduced in order to implement and facilitate them, the truth is that most Agile teams are conducting dull retrospectives that end with a list of things that have been done wrong, just to repeat the same list two weeks later at the next meeting.
Instead of listing hundreds of Japanese-labeled tools, this book gives you practical insights into how to spot improvement opportunities, how to plan for improvement and how to engage everyone in your company in the Kaizen process. In addition, it will also provide you with 27 proven practices and 12 bonus activities to introduce into your retrospectives in order to keep them fresh, creative and exciting, so you can promise a team that, in a year’s time, no two retrospectives will be alike.
This book helps you as a manager, team leader, change agent or consultant in any type of organization to unleash the real power of Kaizen cultures – no matter what kind of organization, market, product, technology, vision, goal or size. It provides you with the background, tools and practical hints on how to engage your organization in a process of continuous quest for new and better ways of performing.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
敏捷團隊自從第一個敏捷框架被開發以來,一直在掙扎於持續改進的概念,但在敏捷環境中關於持續改進的實踐仍然很少有文獻可供參考。儘管團隊回顧會已被規定,並且引入了一些實踐來實施和促進這些會議,但事實是,大多數敏捷團隊進行的回顧會都顯得乏味,最終只會列出一堆錯誤的清單,並在兩週後的下一次會議上重複同樣的清單。
這本書並不會列出數百種標有日文的工具,而是提供了實用的見解,幫助你識別改進機會、規劃改進以及如何讓公司內的每個人參與到Kaizen過程中。此外,它還將提供27種經過驗證的實踐和12項額外活動,以便在你的回顧會中引入,保持其新鮮、創意和令人興奮,讓你能夠向團隊保證,在一年的時間內,沒有兩次回顧會會是相同的。
這本書幫助你作為經理、團隊領導、變革推動者或顧問,在任何類型的組織中釋放Kaizen文化的真正力量——無論是什麼樣的組織、市場、產品、技術、願景、目標或規模。它為你提供背景、工具和實用的提示,幫助你讓組織參與到持續尋求新方法和更好表現的過程中。
