Ende 2017 meldete ich mich zum ersten Mal zur „Professional Scrum Master III“-Prüfung an. Ich wollte beweisen, dass ich mich mittlerweile richtig gut mit Scrum auskenne. Insgeheim spielte ich bereits mit dem Gedanken, irgendwann einmal Scrum Trainer zu werden. Die Prüfung stellt die Einstiegshürde für Trainer dar. Ich folgte dem gängigen Rat aus Scrum Foren: Bis zur Prüfung las ich jedes Buch über Scrum, das es auf dem Markt gab.

Meteorologists are better at predicting the weather than project managers are at delivering projects. About a third of projects are delivered on time, on budget, and with the desired scope. By contrast, a seven-day forecast is accurate about 80% of the time. So why is project success so elusive? Intentionality is lacking.

Framing work as problems to solve encourages individuals to think creatively and generate innovative solutions. Implementing solutions based on this problem-solving approach involves experimentation. Instead of relying on a single solution, teams test their ideas on a smaller scale, gather feedback, and refine their approach based on the results. This iterative process allows for continuous improvement and refinement of solutions.

We could probably debate for a good long time whether it’s harder to introduce a new piece of technology to a small organization or a large one. With a large organization, you likely have a lot more users to onboard — but you also have a potentially larger team of champions who can help push the transition forward. With a smaller organization, that change management might come down to a small team or even just one person.

Great to read that Canva is developing many, many of its managers with the brilliant capability of coaching. Run via their internal leadership academy, Canva is equipping their people with these skills to help with: 1️⃣ delivering actionable feedback 2️⃣ managing hybrid teams, and 3️⃣ building trust among staffers. What a wonderful opportunity for managers who may have had little or no formalised experience with coaching - except being on the receiving end of it, and it not being that great!

According to Wellingtone’s State of Project Management Report, 50% of project managers waste at least one day each month manually piecing together status reports. This manual work isn’t just time-consuming—it’s risky. If you can’t monitor your portfolio in real time, you’ll only catch problems like cost overruns or resource conflicts after they’ve already impacted your projects and profits.

People sometimes refer to the one-off meetings that happen outside of weekly refinement meetings as pre-refinement. I get it. It's hard to find language to talk about that. But there is no such thing as pre-refinement. Instead, all work associated with adding order, size and detail to items in the Product Backlog is refinement, whether it takes place in a meeting or whether it's work done by an individual outside of a meeting.

‘When you lose ‘em, you’ve lost ‘em for good!’ said the shouty presenter at the leadership conference. And that’s not true. It almost sounds like a threat that you need to keep people hooked in or you’ll lose them. But we all lose focus and attention, all the time. As leaders, speakers, trainers or facilitators, we can’t hold people’s engagement all of the time.

Effective cross-functional collaboration and communication heavily influence product launch success. Research shows that as many as 70% of product launches fail due to inadequate coordination among stakeholders, including supply chain, product management, legal, marketing, and change control teams (Gartner, 2022). The 2023 Supply Chain Insights Report highlights that 60% of supply chain disruptions are caused by poor communication and misalignment among cross-functional teams.
