I speak with Bob about his CleanCoders.com video series.  If you code or or know someone that does these videos can be a valuable resource for continued evolution. 

As always entertaining ... at least to me.

Enjoy

I speak with Mary and Ellen about their book Discover to Deliver.  Creating a Structured Conversation about the discovery process.  If you want to build the right thing you need to get people together and explore the space, find the value and find a way to confirm.

They evaluate the dimensions of features along the following dimensions:

• User
• Action
• Data  
• Control
• Interface
• Environment
• Quality

I love the fact that they went for a visual management, lean startup and agile delivery to pull this book together.

Karl and I chat about Kanban and Visual Management.  For those listeners who are familiar with my podcast you will know that Visual Management on physical boards is a topic that I am personally interested in and love helping my clients with.  

Karl thinks about kanban boards with the following acronym T.I.P.

• Token - The representational piece that moves through the process, different types may be used
• Inscription - Graphics and words on the card representing what needs to be done
• Placement - Where it is within the process and the space of the board

Enjoy the podcast.

In this episode I speak with Kent McDonald regarding his work in Agile business analysis, our lab at the conference, his books and his work as the chair of Agile 2013.  I have worked with Kent for several years and find his talent, humor and pragmatism a wonderful addition to any project.

Enjoy our talk and say hello to him at Agile 2013. 

An insightful keynote on adaptive leadership by Jim Highsmith: co-author of the Agile Manifesto, founding member of the Agile Alliance, prolific author, and industry thought leader.

• Why Agile - Envision a Responsive Organization

Jeff Morgan and I talk about his work with Cucumber and his creation of many gems.  He is a great guy to chat with and I need to make it to Cleavland to work on the boat with him.  He and I run into each other at conferences and occasionaly on client sites.

Hope you enjoy.

I speak with Tom and Dustin regarding the work they have done to roll out agile within Nationwide. I worked with them both in the past and it is extrordinarily gratifying to see the seeds of your labor grown into such a giant tree.  They have created the right ballance of structure that allows them to bring up teams and agility to allow those teams to innovate.

I hope you enjoy.

I speak with Diana Larsen and James Shore at the Agile 2012 conference about their recently released Agile Fluency model.  This model looks at team and organizational Agile adoption and provides a framework for looking at where you are and where you want to be.

I always enjoy talking with Arlo about his open data work and the strange coincidence that he and Ward Cunningham are both working on this problem.  He chats about his work with big data, his penchant for starting with XP as the initial set of agile practices for teams to allow tight feedback and real agility.

This interview has been on disk for a while but I hope you enjoy.  As you can tell he is an angry, angry, bitter man.
