As global competitiveness comes to the software development industry, the search is on for a better way to create first-class software rapidly, repeatedly, and reliably. Lean initiatives in manufacturing, logistics, and services have led to dramatic improvements in cost, quality and delivery time; can they do the same for software development? The short answer is “Absolutely!”
Of the many methods that have arisen to improve software development, Lean is emerging as one that is grounded in decades of work understanding how to make processes better. Lean thinking focuses on giving customers what they want, when and where the want it, without a wasted motion or wasted minute.
This intensive two day workshop is particularly aimed at leaders such as project managers, department managers, team leads, scrum masters.
We will help you apply lean principles such as Rapid Response, Constant Learning, Built-in Quality, Local Responsibility and Global Optimization to software development.
What you will learn:
- How to look at your process from a customer's point of view and identify waste.
- What's wrong with software testing and what you have to do to fix it.
- How to frame risk and rethink scheduling to permit confident promise-dating and reliable delivery.
- The traits of people who work in the most effective system development organizations.
- The leadership roles that support the lean framework.
- Tools for solving problems that everyone in the organization can use.
- How to change when change is hard.
- How Kanban can be used to drive evolutionary process improvement.
