Join 📚 Felicity's Weekly Book Highlights
A batch of the best highlights from what Felicity's read, .
In two-track agile, two tracks of work act in coordination. The first track is the experiment track. This team uses all the sense and respond techniques described in this book to take on the high-uncertainty portions of the work and figure out what solution works best. From there, the solution can be passed off to a second track—the production track—and this team implements the solution in a robust way. This arrangement works best when the hand-off between the teams is not a document, specification, or contract, but rather a working prototype that has been produced in the final delivery technology.
Sense and Respond
Jeff Gothelf, Josh Seiden
Upon evaluating the main challenges faced by the product management team, I identified a few issues: they had no easy access to data; the strategy and roadmap planning cadences were taking a huge amount of time; and there were no consistent templates across the organization. The product managers were eager to apply their training, but they felt stuck. Product leaders felt stuck, too. They couldn’t reconcile the roadmaps at scale.
