Rise and Downfall of a Large Scale Scrum Implementation
We were at the forefront of scaling Scrum and Agile. Past tense. This talk will explore lessons learnt, and how to increase the probability of success for your scaling efforts.
To be clear, this is a failure story. However, failure inevitably leads to learning. And I would very much like to share my learnings with the wider agile-community.
This talk is divided into the following sections:
How we implemented Large Scale Scrum and were proud of it
What we tried that went well and you should try, too
Things we tried that didn't work - but may work for you
What we tried that failed - and you shouldn't try either
General advice on what to look for in scaling frameworks
