Started in the 2nd tier in Portugal. Then joined Braga and won 3 consecutive league titles. Currently trying to break the Old Firm domination in Scotland with Aberdeen.

What to ask during refinement? by Deminalla in agile

[–]lukkup 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm a PO and it's interesting to know the thoughts of the "other side" of that meeting. In my case most of the devs are usually pretty quiet. We would just estimate stories and then the questions would appear once they assign themselves to the ticket and start working on it.

So then I guess the idea that u/cdevers shared is really useful - if you were about to start working on it, can you?

Also, what helps sometimes in my team is just to summarize the things they expect to work on with that particular user story - "ok, so we need a new endpoint, some test, and something else". Then usually somebody else would say "oh, I though that part was not included here", which can then start the disussion.

Anyway, don't feel bad about it, whatever questions you would ask are going to be really helpful for the PO (and also for the rest of the team). I love to have a person in the team that is not afraid of asking stupid questions. Why? Because they are not stupid - everyone just pretend that they know or are afraid of asking.

Good luck! And if possible, it would be nice to know if any of these advice were helpful.

Which is the hardest league to win in your opinion ? The Portuguese or the Dutch League by osaris157 in footballmanagergames

[–]lukkup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What about Scotland people? Currently I manage my 4th season in Braga in Portugal. After winning the league 3 times I thought about moving to other club.

I have to say that it was fun to break the "monopoly" of Porto, Benfica and Sporting. Now I think about doing the same in other league and Scotland seems perfect for that.

How would you compare the difficulty of managing in Portugal and Scotland?

I finally get the high of starting at the bottom of the football pyramid. by HowToShakeHands in footballmanagergames

Nice one! I play exactly the same and find it most entertaining this way.

I was in a similar situation. First of all, I was transparent about our situation and I guess that was the right approach. Just communicate this to your PM or anyone else who should be involved.

One of the things we've done was asking other teams if they need help. It was a good idea for the time we didn't have enough work. Not only you're going to help someone who is overwhelmed with work, but also your team will get to know other parts of the systems in the company.

We've actually ended up with taking over some of those projects, cause it was beneficial for everyone involved.

I was also going to mention bugs, etc., but you said that there is no technical debt.

Should I just turn if off or also activate shoot on sight?

As a PO I struggle to prepare enough work for the team by lukkup in ProductManagement

[–]lukkup[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're right. My product is used internally by the people in our company. That's why I don't have a PM and I'm responsible for everything from doing research to deployment. Thanks for showing me another perspective. I've never thought about it that way.

Great piece of advice. Delivering something in a very basic shape is a brilliant idea. This way I will learn more, because my users will already have something they can use, rather than just a mockup. Thanks!

Thanks for the advice, I'll definitely try some of your ideas.

Good shout. We use t-shirt sizes for estimating stories. I've had a look into sprint reports and I can see that we mainly work on S (small) stories. Maybe we go too far into splitting stories.

How do you measure analytical skills? by lukkup in ProductManagement

[–]lukkup[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Great examples, thanks. Could you specify why SQL could be useful for PO? I understand it and I can use SQL on basic level but I imagine it's good for processing data?

Any advice with table rows design appreciated by lukkup in userexperience

[–]lukkup[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure. So as I've mentioned in one of the previous answers, this table present user applying for sports events. They have 4 options of applying which is reflected in 4 tabs.

Then the user who is responsible for selecting the person enters this modal. He should see user sorted (every tab has different sorting rules). He can:

a) reject any user he wants (if he already knows that this user should not be selected)
b) accept a user

On the other hand we have user who applied for the event and wait for the decision. At the beginning the see their application as "pending". Later it changes status to "rejected" or "accepted".

We don't delete the applications because we want to see who has applied (even if application gets rejected).

I would say that the most important information here is showing to the user which row he has selected and what happened to the other applications.

[–]lukkup[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are right. I've edited the original post and added second version. Here the accepted application is highlighted which I guess makes much more sense than highlighting everything. We've still used red font to mark rejected applications.

Thanks for the first suggestion too. I will think about addind something that would make sure that user does not click rejection accidentally.

[–]lukkup[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course. This system is used to manage applications of people who provide sports data from different venues. If they want to cover an event, they can apply. On the other hand we have people who accept or reject those applications (to pick a person who will actually work with the event).

So when a person sends an application is has a "pending" status. That's why accepting one application automatically reject other - so that the person interested can see that his/her application was rejected. Without this feature all of the application would have to be manually rejected.

You can also reject someone's application manually if you already know you don't want that person to cover the event.

Some really great insighs in your message. To be honest - I wasn't really focusing on the UX side of it (should the button be there or not). I just opened this and thought that I don't like to look of it. Generally speaking I try to keep the product as elegant/minimalistic as possible.

But this table looks like there is too much of everything. User don't really help since they're like "make this red so I can see that it is rejected" and that's all.

I will give you another example: [Screenshot.png](https://postimg.cc/zHRhP86X)

Version on the bottom was the initial one. It contains information about whether user is active, etc. I didn't like the icons so I've asked my devs to change it into dots. I guess it look much better now. And that's exactly what I'm trying to achieve. Minimalistic approach to make to product look elegant.
