Agile for Humans with Ryan Ripley and Todd Miller

YDS: What are the Characteristics of a High Performing Scrum Team?

Todd and Ryan address a question about handling unplanned work that is not measured in Sprint planning and affects a team's predictability in meeting Sprint goals. They recommend holding back capacity back in Sprint planning to account for the unplanned work and plan realistically rather than at 100% capacity. They suggest cutting capacity in half if about half of the work in a Sprint is unplanned. They also caution against equating predictability with maintaining the same velocity or throughput and recommend measuring unplanned work transparently and gathering data on it.

YDS: How Does a Scrum Team Handle Unplanned Work?

The video discusses who should facilitate a Sprint review in a Scrum team. Todd and Ryan believe the Product Owner should be involved in the process to ensure the right stakeholders are present to adapt the product backlog. However, the Product Owner doesn't necessarily have to be the one facilitating the Sprint Review but should be responsible for sending invites and ensuring the right people are in attendance. The Sprint review is seen as an underserved event that provides an opportunity to adapt the product backlog.

YDS: Who Facilitates the Sprint Review in Scrum?

The video discusses methods for identifying waste and workflow bottlenecks, particularly in lean principles. Ryan and Todd suggest using flow metrics to identify trends, running activities with teams to identify specific issues, and validating that input through visualizations. Balancing efficiency with effectiveness and keeping the customer in mind is also emphasized.
