Mein Scrum ist kaputt | Agilität, Scrum, Kanban und mehrProduct Ownership Evolution Model (mit Tim Klein)
Sebastian und Ina sprechen mit Tim Klein vom Product Owner Podcast „Die Produktwerker“ über das Product Ownership Evolution Model (POEM) und das Product Ownership Context Canvas (POCC).

Danach geht es genauer um das POEM, welches dabei hilft, die aktuell gelebte und zukünftig angestrebte Ausgestaltung von Product Ownership zu visualisieren, zu diskutieren und so gemeinsam weiterzuentwickeln. Schließlich wird das POCC vorgestellt, welches eine Reflektion der jeweiligen Handlungsfelder ermöglicht.

Tim Hartwig)Tim hat uns vor ein paar Wochen mit einer ausführlichen Email mit vielen Fragen zum Thema Produktentwicklung und MVP angeschrieben. In der letzten Folge für dieses Jahr unterhalten wir uns mit ihm zusammen über das Thema und klären, wie man die Produktentwicklung gut visualisieren und verwalten kann. Außerdem werfen wir einen Blick auf das Minimum Viable Product (MVP) und ein paar seiner Eigenschaften und geben außerdem Hilfestellung dazu, wie man Scope Creep entgegenwirken kann.

2016-11-2538 minMein Scrum ist kaputt | Agilität, Scrum, Kanban und mehrBraucht ein Scrum Master Domänenwissen?Anders als geplant, geht es heute nicht um MVP (Sorry, Tim!), sondern um die Frage, ob ein Scrum Master Domänenwissen braucht. Dabei hangeln wir uns am Streitpunkt entlang, ob es von Vor- oder Nachteil ist, wenn sich der Scrum Master in der Domäne seines Teams auskennt. Dabei sprechen wir auch an, was das tatsächliche Problem sein kann, wenn das Team glaubt, der Scrum Master mache nur „Blümchenwiese“.
