In this podcast, I talk with Søren Pedersen. We talk about teams, value streams, and leveraging agile to improve how teams deliver value. We started with the definition of a team and then got into the practical nitty-gritty of defining value streams and coaching teams.

Re-Read Saturday News
This week...I am hiking in the woods without my laptop, albeit I do have my copy of Monotasking by Staffan Nöteberg. I am continuing to focus on using shortlists, which has been a fairly easy transition and also implementing both the panorama cues and panorama sessions. The panorama cues and sessions have been useful up to the point that my dairy becomes wall-to-wall meetings. I am trying to devise an approach for using panorama sessions in this scenario. Suggestions? While I am out in the woods I have re-published the summary of one of the most popular Re-reads, The Goal. We will be back to Monotasking by Staffan Nöteberg next week.

Next SPaMCAST
The next Software Process and Measurement Cast will feature an essay on prioritization. The order work is done is a reflection of priority. There is often a difference between assigned priority and the real priority based on when teams start and complete a piece of work.
We will also have a visit to the QA Corner with Jeremy Berriault.
