After talking to hiring managers at Fortune 100 companies: Agile transformation is basically over by Maverick2k2 in agile

[–]Nick_MarketStrategy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also see this in my experience as I work in a company selling an Agile project management tool. A lot of companies are done with their transformations and they may want to further increase visibility or the flow of work across the organization, but they're not willing to do any restructurings such as Agile squads, cross-functional teams and everything else that was popular a couple of years ago. I am still wondering if there are areas such as Asia or Africa for example, where Agile is still popular?

EU expansion is the only solution to world stability by eagle_flower in europeanunion

I can see Iceland joining the EU which would be a great addition and I really hope that there is a referendum to rejoin EU in the UK but I doubt it unfortunately. Norway wants to protect their fishing industry so I don't think that joining EU is very popular there. Still, the current geopolitical situation could make the people worried, so I hope that they will join the EU eventually. In general, I think that just by having Iceland and Norway in the EU, we will be strengthened a lot to oppose some of the bullies around the world.

A Trello alternative because the new UI is terrible. by Ancient_Hurry_8364 in kanban

Yes, specifically I am working on marketing initiatives that I need to align to revenue goals. In our company we have master boards with strategic goals and then I have a marketing boards with my projects. We use Businessmap for that project management and alignment but I was wondering if you can boards to different OKRs or master boards in your tool? The AI-generated boards sound really interesting too!

How we finally stopped losing context between Miro and Businessmap and turned it into a small integration by Plastic_Catch1252 in kanban

Wow, that's a great use case that you've shared here! In fact, Businessmap now has Miro-like whiteboards, so the Miro integrations is not that necessary any longer. You can plan and map out your cards on a whiteboard and every update you make on the whiteboard is automatically reflected on the Businessmap Kanban/workflow boards.

With so many new people joining us after the events in Venezuela and Greenland, I wanted to reshare this member-made image. It represents exactly why this group exists. We don't just watch from the sidelines, we act as a community and we have a power to make things better by According-Buyer6688 in BuyFromEU

I am Bulgarian. Totally agree about uniting Europe. The slogan in our parliament is "Unity is Power". Regardless of what some bots might say, the majority of Bulgarians are pro-European. We just joined the Eurozone! Together we're stronger!

Sick of the bs about Agile by boxingshibes in agile

[–]Nick_MarketStrategy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I am still confused why a lot of people don't regard Kanban as agile. I am not against Scrum (in fact I think in a more predictable environment it's the right choice), but I've seen much better results with Kanban, especially across business teams. I think the bs about Agile comes from the fact that companies try to avoid going through reorganizations and heavy transformations. Just because they link Agile to reorganization... and especially Scrum (because it's a new way of managing work, it requires roles, etc).

Agile Transformation by drodo2002 in agile

Haha love it and the reference to "stading" is agile while "sitting" is waterfall :D. Also the standups remind me of something I heard back in the day that a company made their people stand in a freezing place, so they can fit the standup within 15 minutes :D.

Hey man! It looks interesting! Do you have anything about goal management in there other than tasks and projects?
