The Agile Industrial Complex and Imposing Agile Practices w/ Mike Cottmeyer

Earlier this fall at the 2018 Large Scale Scrum Conference in NYC, Ellen Gottesdiener and Andy Repton led a session called “What is Our Product” (https://less.works/sessions/2018-less-conference-new-york-what-is-our-product-88). During the course of their presentation they showcased many of the tools they use with clients to determine what the product they are building actually is. In this interview Ellen and Andy explain why this question is not as easy to understand as it seems and why it is so critical to product success. During the course of our conversation they walk through some of the tools they use to help clients deepen their understanding of the product, how to make sure it is strategically aligned, and how this can even be done with massive organizations that are developing infrastructure products.

Scaling Product Development with Ellen Gottesdiener and Andy Repton

Ellen Gottesdiener, a product coach, author, and CEO of EBG Consulting, shares her wisdom about marrying product management with Agile principles and practices. She speculates a future where there will be a “blending of disciplines where you don’t necessarily have a business area and a technology area”, just one product team with interdisciplinary team members. Her piece of advice to product people: Have strategic awareness of your product in the marketplace or “big view”, and get rid of junk in the backlog.

Gottesdiener also takes us down the memory lane to the beginnings of the Agile Conference – she has attended every one of them since Salt Lake City. She reminds us of the women who have had a large impact on the Agile community from the very beginning.

Infusing Product Management with Agile Principles and Practices - Ellen Gottesdiener | 1909

This is the Engineering Culture Podcast, from the people behind InfoQ.com and the QCon conferences.
In this podcast recorded at Agile 2019, Shane Hastie, Lead Editor for Culture & Methods, spoke to Bas Vodde, one of the formulators of Large Scale Scrum (LeSS) about how LeSS is designed to descale an organisation rather than scaling up to cope with complexity 

Why listen to this podcast:

•	LeSS is based on the idea of de-scaling and reducing complexity rather than scaling to cope with complexity
•	A characteristic of LeSS adoptions is that the concepts of projects and programs tend to completely disappear in favour of product-based working
•	With LeSS, you have always one Product Owner for the entire product.  Product owners per team are considered to be an exceptionally bad idea from a LeSS perspective
•	LeSS is based on having largely stable, cross-functional teams working on customer centric functionality
•	 LeSS is based on a set of ten principles which guide the approach, and then imperical feedback based on experiments and constant learning

Bas Vodde on LeSS, LeSS Huge and Descaling for Agility
