			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> In his book "<a href="http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/0060517123/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=agilecanada-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=15121&amp;creative=330641&amp;creativeASIN=0060517123">Crossing the Chasm</a> <b>Mentat pills online without prescription</b>, ", Geoffrey Moore describes the difficulty of creating a popular new product due to a conceptual "chasm" between the first people who adopt a new product and those who come later.  He describes five types of people in relation to how they adopt new products:<br />
<ul><br />
	<li>Innovators - always actively seeking out and trying cutting edge new products.</li><br />
	<li>Early Adopters - excited to try new things, but after the worst "bugs" have been removed.</li><br />
	<li>Then there is the Chasm - many products fail here.</li><br />
	<li>Early Majority - willing to try new things but need strong testimonials or real-world proof.</li><br />
	<li>Late Majority - require time-tested proof before they will adopt a product.</li><br />
	<li>Laggards - resistant to change and hesitant to adopt anything without strong personal incentives.</li><br />
</ul><br />
This product adoption behavior also applies to new ideas in general, and of course, to <a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/2009/09/14/uncategorized/agile-transformation-vs-agile-adoption/">Agile Transformation</a> [Agile Transformation vs. Agile Adoption] in particular, <b>mentat pills purchase</b>.  <b>Order mentat pills cheap online</b>, <strong>Implications of the "Chasm" Model</strong></p>
<p>An organization attempting to do an <a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/2010/08/05/agilemanagement/quick-reference-kotters-8-step-change-model/">Agile Transformation</a> [Kotter's 8-Step Change Model] should understand how to use this model to ensure long-term success.  This diagram illustrates the concepts (click on it to see it full size):</p>
<p><a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/IMG_2745.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1438" title="Crossing the Chasm and Agile Transformation" src="http://www.agileadvice.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/IMG_2745-e1322102760769-600x427.jpg" alt="Crossing the Chasm and Agile Transformation" width="600" height="427" /></a></p>
<p>First, <b>compare mentat pills prices</b>, <b>Find discount mentat pills</b>, the organization should start the transformation by finding the innovators and early adopters.  These people can then be recruited to run the initial pilot projects.  They will be enthusiastic and will typically adapt themselves to the new behaviors and thinking patterns required by Agility.  If they are properly supported by managers, they will also be successful - at least within the bounds of a limited pilot environment.  Success here will mean that the pilot projects deliver value, <b>find cheap mentat pills online</b>, <b>Buy generic mentat pills</b>, use feedback effectively, and the participants (team members and stakeholders) will be happy with the results, <b>mentat pills no rx</b>.  <b>Cheap mentat pills pill</b>, In this stage, it is best to avoid putting people on the teams who are from the early majority, <b>cost of mentat pills</b>, <b>Buy cheap mentat pills online</b>, late majority or laggards groups.  These people will tend to drag on the results of the pilot projects.  This is a common mistake in running a pilot program and leads to discouraging results.  One way to help filter between these two groups is simply to ask for volunteers for the pilot projects, <b>mentat pills online without prescription</b>.  Innovators and early adopters will be much more likely to volunteer for a new initiative, <b>drug mentat pills online purchase</b>.  <b>Mentat pills alternative</b>, After the pilot projects have shown some good results, the next step is to go the general roll-out, <b>order mentat pills overnight delivery</b>.  <b>Canadian mentat pills</b>,  In this step, you are now working with the early and late majority, <b>buy mentat pills online cheap</b>.  <b>Discount mentat pills overnight delivery</b>,  These people need much more substantial support for a change of this nature.  <b>Mentat pills online without prescription</b>,  They will require intensive training, and hand-holding in the form of coaching and mentoring.  This hand-holding can come partially from your innovators and early adopters, <b>cheapest generic mentat pills</b>.  <b>Mentat pills cheap</b>,  Some of the participants in the pilot projects will have the desire to share their success.  From these, <b>cheap mentat pills pill</b>, <b>Lowest price for mentat pills</b>, you need to carefully select and prepare a few who will act as internal coaches.  If you are a small organization or if you wish to do your transformation quickly, <b>find mentat pills</b>, <b>Order mentat pills from canada</b>, you will likely need to hire coaches from outside your organization as well.</p>
<p>The early and late majority require evidence of benefits and reassurance that risks are minimal or can be mitigated, <b>mentat pills online without prescription</b>.  This evidence partially comes from your pilot projects, <b>mentat pills free sample</b>.  <b>Where to order mentat pills</b>,  However, this may not be sufficient, <b>mentat pills canada</b>.  <b>Find cheap mentat pills online</b>,  There are two other important sources of evidence for this group: the leadership team and external experts.</p>
<p>The leadership team must be committed to the change to agility and can demonstrate this commitment by doing their own management work as an agile team, <b>buy mentat pills no prescription required</b>.  <b>Mentat pills online without prescription</b>,  The exact details of the agile process do not need to be identical to that of the staff teams, but it should be recognizably similar.  <b>Cheapest mentat pills</b>,  As well, this "Agile Transformation Team" must make itself very visible during the general roll-out, <b>mentat pills online</b>.  <b>Cheap mentat pills overnight delivery</b>,  This can be done with communication and by taking up visible residence in a central conference room or bullpen.  As well, <b>online pharmacy mentat pills</b>, <b>Mentat pills overnight</b>, this Agile Transformation Team must work diligently to remove obstacles that are raised by staff teams during the general roll-out.</p>
<p>The second source of evidence comes from external sources, <b>cheap mentat pills no prescription</b>.  Published case studies are one valuable source, <b>mentat pills online without prescription</b>.  <b>Mentat pills online without prescription</b>,  However, there is a huge value in a visible management investment in external support from recognized experts, <b>drug mentat pills</b>.  <b>Mentat pills purchase</b>,  This can be in the form of training, coaching, <b>mentat pills no online prescription</b>, <b>Cheapest mentat pills price</b>, consulting as well as informal "lunch-and-learn" meetings, town hall meetings and the like, <b>no prescription mentat pills</b>.  <b>Cheap mentat pills in uk</b>,  When engaging experts, it is imperative that the Agile Transformation Team act on their advice otherwise the early and late majority will take that as a sign of hypocrisy.</p>
<p>The final stage of a roll-out is to deal with the laggards.  <b>Mentat pills online without prescription</b>,  For the most part this is a do-or-die proposition for these people.  Either get with the program and engage like a committed employee or leave the organization.  If your organization is large enough, you will likely have observed some of these people leaving the organization in the general roll-out.</p>
<p>For some organizations, this transformation process can take many years.  An organization with thousands of people should expect to be working on the pilot projects for at least a year, the general roll-out for at least three years.  Often it will be longer.  Good luck on your agile transformation effort.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Buy diclofenac without prescription</b>, Over the years working with clients, I've discovered that there is often confusion about what are the differences between mentoring, coaching and training.  We all know that these are ways for an expert or experienced individual to help people do something more effectively.  That's the similarity.  But the differences...</p>
<p><strong>Mentoring</strong></p>
<p>Mentoring is generally an informal relationship between two people.  A mentor will do many of the same things as a coach or even someone who is a trainer, <b>canadian pharmacy diclofenac</b>, <b>Order diclofenac no prescription required</b>, but there is no formal obligation on the part of either party.  A mentoring relationship often develops gradually from a friendship or a professional association, intensifies as the mentor discovers he has valuable insight and experience to share, <b>buy diclofenac online australia</b>, <b>Buy discount diclofenac online</b>, and as the person being mentored discovers his desire to learn from the mentor.  The two people will at some point recognize the special nature of their relationship, but may not name it.  And as life circumstances change, <b>generic diclofenac</b>, <b>Diclofenac</b>, the relationship will gradually de-intensify.  It will often turn into a friendship of peers.</p>
<p><strong>Coaching</strong></p>
<p>In working on this article, <b>buy cheapest diclofenac online</b>, <b>Diclofenac no prescription</b>, I read a number of other articles about the differences between coaching and mentoring.  All of them talk about how a coach does not provide solutions or answers.  I beg to differ.  Think of an athletic coach.  An athletic coach definitely does not simply ask the athlete questions and help them bring out their own solutions to problems.  An athletic coach helps point out problems, makes very definite suggestions, <b>order diclofenac without prescription</b>, <b>Diclofenac sale</b>, and sometimes even intervenes physically to help the athlete do the right thing.  So what is coaching?  The main difference is in terms of formality.</p>
<p>A coach is a coach from the start of the relationship with the person being coached.  The person being coached has a specific goal to achieve.  It can be long term or short term, <b>buy diclofenac internet</b>, <b>Buy diclofenac low price</b>, but it is specific.  The coach is there to help that person meet their goal.  Once the goal is met, the relationship is re-evaluated, <b>fda approved diclofenac</b>.  <b>Diclofenac without rx</b>, Here are some of the ways that coaching can happen (actually, mentors do these things too):<br />
<ul><br />
	<li>The Socratic Coach - asks lots of probing questions.</li><br />
	<li>The Hands-On Coach - shows people a way to solve a problem, <b>diclofenac for order</b>, <b>Cheap diclofenac online</b>, but leaves it to the individual to mimic or do something different.</li><br />
	<li>The Intervention Coach - mostly observes and at key moments intervenes to help an individual choose a specific path of action.</li><br />
	<li>The Guiding Coach - provides constant (usually gentle) reminders to help an individual keep withing a specific path of action (guide rails).</li><br />
</ul><br />
<strong>Training</strong></p>
<p>Classroom training is the type of training we most often think of, but it is not the only kind.  There is also on-the-job training and of course all sorts of e-learning methods of training.  Training is very formal, <b>lowest price diclofenac</b>, <b>Cheap diclofenac without prescription</b>, should have well-defined learning objectives, and is often relatively brief as compared to coaching or mentoring, <b>cheap diclofenac no prescription</b>.  <b>Cheap diclofenac in canada</b>, Training can also include many of the types of interaction that are found in a coaching environment, but there is a very strong focus on the trainer being a subject matter expert.  The trainer has extensive experience or knowledge in the subject that is being delivered in the training.  It is expected that the participants in the training learn from the trainer - there is knowledge transfer.  How this happens can be very flexible, <b>discount diclofenac online</b>, <b>Order discount diclofenac</b>, of course, and good training is never just a speaker standing at the front of the room and lecturing for the whole time.  Discussion, <b>diclofenac overnight delivery</b>, <b>Cheapest diclofenac price</b>, simulations, case studies, <b>generic diclofenac cheap</b>, <b>Order diclofenac on internet</b>, and other forms of interaction are critical for an effective training experience.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> James Shore wrote a great post about the problems he is seeing with agile adoptions that start with Scrum called the <a href="http://jamesshore.com/Blog/The-Decline-and-Fall-of-Agile.html">Decline and Fall of Agile</a> <b>Buy keflex without prescription</b>, .  Please please please (pretty please) read it before you read what I am about to write here!  I agree with what James is saying 100%.</p>
<p>Now, <b>cheap keflex</b>, <b>Keflex approved</b>, let's hear the truth:</p>
<p>Scrum is really really hard!  Doing Scrum well is like quitting a heavy, long addiction (I think).  Don't ever make the mistake that because Scrum is simple (lack of complexity) that it is somehow therefore easy (lack of effort), <b>keflex bangkok</b>.  <b>Find keflex no prescription required</b>, Doing Scrum properly takes:</p>
<p><strong>sacrifice</strong> - sacrifice of our ways of thinking, our habits, <b>keflex online review</b>, <b>Buy keflex internet</b>, our comfort</p>
<p><strong>wisdom</strong> - wisdom to see the small improvements while struggling with the humongeous ones</p>
<p>and most importantly,</p>
<p><strong>truthfulness</strong> - honesty to see and say the truth, <b>find keflex on internet</b>, <b>Buy cheapest keflex on line</b>, integrity to act on the truth, detachment to avoid believing in what you want instead of what is real, <b>purchase keflex online</b>, <b>Keflex drug</b>, courage to continue even when things aren't perfect or easy</p>
<p>Scrum depends heavily on commitment both at the small scale of an individual committing to a small piece of work, and at the large scale of an organization committing to real deep cultural change.  Without that entire spectrum of commitment, <b>order keflex cheap online</b>, <b>Keflex from india</b>, it is unlikely that adopting Scrum will be anything but the latest fad imposed by management or done stealthily by staff.</p>
<p>But Scrum isn't the only "agile" method.  As James points out, <b>keflex cost</b>, <b>Buy keflex canada</b>, the engineering practices of Extreme Programming such as pair programming, test driven development, <b>discount keflex online</b>, <b>Cheap keflex from canada</b>, continuous integration, evolutionary design and refactoring are all critical.  Do they have to be done and perfected first?  No.  But eventually, <b>keflex online</b>, <b>Compare keflex prices online</b>, if you are using Scrum to build software (not everyone is), they do have to be done, <b>buy no rx keflex</b>.  <b>Buy keflex low price</b>, As a Certified Scrum Trainer, I have always emphasized how Scrum is hard, <b>keflex online sales</b>, <b>Keflex for order</b>, and how being a ScrumMaster is very very very hard.  This is why my training class is three days instead of two.  This is why I don't encourage anyone to come to it, only people who will be ScrumMasters.  This is why after the first day of my course, <b>cheapest keflex online</b>, <b>Drug keflex</b>, most students are actually feeling quite discouraged!!!  It takes three days minimum for people to understand and process the incredible shift in mental model.  And of course, even after three days, <b>buy keflex us</b>, <b>Buy cheapest keflex online</b>, it is oh so easy to revert back to our normal thinking habits.</p>
<p>So what should people do?  Do Scrum by the book.  Yes that means putting a whole team in a single room.  Yes it means that you have to really remove obstacles, <b>cheap keflex pharmacy</b>, <b>Buy keflex online without prescription</b>, and fast!  Yes that means that your teams actually have to be cross functional (and not just in the weak sense of multi-skilled developers).  Yes that means that it - will - take - a - long - time - to - get - it - right!!!.</p>
<p>And please, <b>keflex in australia</b>, <b>Order keflex no prescription required</b>, it is so worth getting help beyond just the training!  If you think that I'm just trying to promote my own coaching services, please go check out:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Given the huge interest in the article by <a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/archives/2006/11/how_two_hours_c.html">Dmitri Zimine about context switching</a> <b>Buy prandin without prescription</b>, , and despite a couple of good articles about how to determine iteration length, there has been no empirical method described, only reasoning processes.  <b>Prandin without rx</b>, This article describes a simple method to quickly determine iteration length by experimental means.</p>
<p></p>
<p><strong>Step One</strong></p>
<p>Start with an iteration length that feels right, <b>buy prandin online without prescription</b>.  <b>Prandin in bangkok</b>, Use the two articles below to try decide a reasonable length.  In software development, <b>price of prandin</b>, <b>Buy cheapest prandin</b>, this should be no longer that four weeks.  In larger volunteer communities it might be as long as three months, <b>buy prandin without prescription</b>.  In a work environment where you have to deliver daily, <b>cheapest prandin online</b>, <b>Prandin information</b>, your iteration length might be two hours.</p>
<p><strong>Step Two</strong></p>
<p>Build your <a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/archives/2006/06/agile_work_arti.html">Work Queue</a>, <b>cost prandin</b>, <b>Buy prandin once daily</b>, and plan your first iteration.  Mark the tasks that come out of your <a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/archives/2006/08/seventeen_tips.html">iteration planning meeting</a> so that you know that they are tasks that were planned, <b>prandin no prescription</b>.  <b>Find discount prandin online</b>, As you go through this first iteration, track all the interruptions you get by writing up a task for each interruption, <b>purchase prandin overnight delivery</b>.  <b>Buy prandin without prescription</b>, Each interruption task should be marked so that you know it was an interruption.  <b>Prandin for order</b>, If you are using note cards on a visible task board, I like to have "normal" tasks on white cards and interruption tasks on fluorescent orange cards to help them stand out, <b>prandin tablet</b>.  <b>Purchase prandin no rx</b>, <strong>Step Three</strong></p>
<p>At the end of your iteration, determine which interruption tasks could have been deferred, <b>cheap prandin pill</b>.  <b>Cheap price prandin</b>, In other words, determine which were truly urgent and needed to be handled in the already short time of your iteration, <b>lowest price prandin</b>, <b>Prandin buy online</b>, and which could have been put on the Work Queue, prioritized, <b>prandin internet</b>, <b>Buy cheap prandin online</b>, and therefore deferred to a later iteration.  This will require collaborating with your <a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/archives/2006/08/the_queue_maste.html">Queue Master</a> and possibly other stakeholders, <b>prandin alternative</b>.</p>
<p><strong>Step Four</strong></p>
<p>Count how many non-deferrable interruption tasks your team had in the iteration, <b>buy prandin without prescription</b>.  <b>Drug prandin</b>, For this experimental method, you can assume that this is going to be your normal number of interruptions, <b>buy cheapest prandin on line</b>.  <b>Approved prandin pharmacy</b>, Divide the length of your iteration by the number of non-deferrable interruptions.  For example, <b>overnight prandin</b>, <b>Prandin in australia</b>, if you had a ten day iteration, and two non-deferrable interruptions, <b>prandin in malaysia</b>, <b>Prandin free sample</b>, you would have a result of five days.  Also consider what was the maximum reasonable response time for these non-deferrable interruptions, <b>canadian pharmacy prandin</b>.  <b>Buy prandin without prescription</b>, The lower of these two values becomes your experimentally determined iteration length.  <b>Find prandin on internet</b>, But you are not quite done.</p>
<p><strong>Step Five</strong></p>
<p>Do it all again to verify your iteration length, <b>prandin online stores</b>.  <b>Buy cheapest prandin online</b>, Note that because of your shortened iteration length, you hopefully will have far fewer non-deferrable interruptions, <b>prandin in uk</b>.  <b>Prandin without a prescription</b>, After your second (shortened) iteration, you can adjust the iteration length shorter if necessary.., <b>buy generic prandin</b>. but don't adjust longer (for now), <b>buy prandin without prescription</b>.  <b>Find no rx prandin</b>, <hr/></p>
<p>I've worked with enough teams to know that for a substantial portion of them, this method would result in very very short iterations, <b>buy prandin online cheap</b>.  <b>Prandin tablets</b>, In the software world, a team is often asked to work on a project <em>and</em> support their previous project, <b>buy prandin on line</b>.  This support work tends to mean dealing with various bugs in deployed software.  This is one reason why I have become such a strong advocate that <a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/archives/2006/08/quality_is_not.html">quality is not negotiable</a>.  <b>Buy prandin without prescription</b>, I worked with one team that did something similar to this method (although not as rigorously) and we decided that we needed to try an iteration length of two days.  This was painful for the team, but they badly wanted to <a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/archives/2006/09/developing_trus.html">build trust</a> with their stakeholders.  Their interruptions were causing them to constantly fail on their commitments.  By switching to these two day iterations, they were able to defer the bulk of their interruptions and meet the commitment they made as a team in the iteration planning meeting.</p>
<p><hr/></p>
<p>Articles about iteration length:</p>
<p>Mike Cohn's article: <a href="http://www.mountaingoatsoftware.com/article/view/30">"Selecting the Right Iteration Length for Your Software Development Process"</a></p>
<p>Mishkin Berteig's article: <a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/archives/2006/01/the_pros_and_co.html">"The Pros and Cons of Short Iterations"</a></p>
<p><hr/></p>
<p>Now that you have gotten to the end of the article, I can admit something to you: this article is badly named.  It should be named "How to determine how often to context switch so that you can meet your commitments and build trust with your stakeholders."</p>
<p>What this article doesn't help with is the pain of context switching, <b>buy prandin without prescription</b>.  The teams that I have see that use short iteration lengths all find ways of making context switching less painful.  Automation, good tool choices, workspace arrangements, etc. all play a part in this.  But there is no secret ingredient to make context switching painless.  Sorry.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Buy pro-erex without prescription</b>, Recently, Dimitri Zimine wrote an excellent little story about <a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/archives/2006/11/how_two_hours_c.html">context switching</a>.  Joel Spolsky writes in "<a href="http://www.joelonsoftware.com/items/2006/11/15.html">From the 'You Call this Agile' Department</a>":<br />
<blockquote><em>Dmitri is only looking at one side of the cost/benefit equation.  <b>Best price pro-erex</b>, He's laid out a very convincing argument why Sarah should not interrupt her carefully planned two week iteration, but he hasn't even mentioned arguments for the other side: the important sale that will be lost.</em></blockquote><br />
Okay... I'll bite, <b>cheap generic pro-erex</b>.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Let's look at that argument from the perspective of the sales person first since that is where Joel's concern starts:</p>
<p><strong>The Sales Guy Perspective</strong></p>
<p>"I need the 'ezhibal' feature now.  Big bucks coming soon if we can get it now."</p>
<p>Let's suppose that this urgent email has come in somewhere near the start of our two week iteration, <b>buy pro-erex without prescription</b>.  <b>Buy pro-erex online without prescription</b>, The normal response to this in Scrum is to push back a little.  The ScrumMaster says something to the effect of: "Look if you wait 7 days we can put this on the top of the list for our next iteration."</p>
<p>First reaction, and it's a normal one, <b>cheapest pro-erex</b>, is for Sales Guy to freak out.  <b>Cheap pro-erex pill</b>, I've actually heard people saying things like "You're going to lose your job over this.  I'm getting the VP involved and he's not going to like it"  and then they stalk off to find the big dog to come and bark at us.  <b>Buy pro-erex without prescription</b>, Anyway, let's pretend that the Sales Guy is willing to be reasonable and not instantly escalate the "problem".  So what he actually says is: "Look, <b>cheapest pro-erex prices</b>, this is super important, <b>Order pro-erex no rx</b>, it'll probably only take a few minutes for us to talk about it and then we can figure out how long it will take to fix.  Let's just do a quick phone call and yadda, yadda, <b>generic pro-erex cheap</b>, yadda, <b>Order pro-erex overnight delivery</b>, blah dee blah..."</p>
<p><hr />Enough of the Sales Guy perspective.Nowadays, if I'm in this situation, I do a <strong>value</strong> assessement, <b>pro-erex free delivery</b>.  I tell the team to keep working on their plan, <b>Pro-erex in us</b>, nothing's changed yet, and I sit down with Sales Guy and the person who's sponsoring the current work and we start a discussion about the options of which there are really only two that work in Scrum:<br />
<ol><br />
	<li>Stay the Course</li><br />
	<li>Cancel the Iteration</li><br />
</ol><br />
First, let's talk about how we decide which option to take, <b>order pro-erex no prescription</b>.  Then we'll talk about why.</p>
<p>Deciding on the option is easy, <b>buy pro-erex without prescription</b>.  <b>Canada pro-erex</b>, You look at the value of the work currently being done and compare it to the value of the work that Sales Guy needs.  You take into account probabilities.  If Sales Guy doesn't have a signed contract, <b>buy pro-erex in canada</b>, then it's hard to day if there's going to be any real revenue from the 'ezhibal' feature.  <b>Discount pro-erex without prescription</b>, Still, you might be able to do an assessment of the probabilities based on your level of trust and history with the client, etc, <b>pro-erex tablets</b>.  <b>Buy pro-erex without prescription</b>, You also need to take into account the time value of money.  Does delaying the current work have consequences for another client or stakeholder.  <b>Buy discount pro-erex</b>, What is the cost of those consequences.</p>
<p>This is a relatively simple cost/benefit analysis and comparison.  If you're not comfortable with money and numbers and spreadsheets, <b>lowest price pro-erex</b>, you better get comfortable.</p>
<p><hr />Okay, so we have a way of comparing the two bits of work, <b>buy pro-erex without prescription</b>.  <b>Pro-erex us</b>, Now let's look at the two "allowed" responses and a third "bad" response.<strong>Stay the Course</strong></p>
<p>Turns out that the potential benefit of the stuff Sales Guy wants is not quite as high as the potential benefit of the stuff that Suzie Stakeholder prioritized for the current iteration.  Well, that's easy, <b>cheap price pro-erex</b>.  Put the request from Sales Guy in our prioritized list of work and get to it when there is an appropriate level of benefit relative to the other work.  <b>Pro-erex cheap</b>, <strong>Cancel the Iteration</strong></p>
<p>The stuff Sales Guy wants is super-valuable.  <b>Buy pro-erex without prescription</b>, So let's get the whole team to stop what they are doing and everyone supports this very valuble work.  Stopping the whole team is appropriate because obvioulsy, the stuff they're working on isn't as valuable, <b>buy pro-erex</b>.  Oh, <b>Pro-erex price</b>, and because we treat a team as a unit in Scrum.  And because the team needs to commit to work, not individuals, <b>fda approved pro-erex</b>.  This isn't so obvious... more later, <b>buy pro-erex without prescription</b>.  <b>Pro-erex alternative</b>, <strong>Peel Sarah off to do the 'ezhibal' Feature</strong></p>
<p>This is what normally happens, and in a "normal" non-agile environment, it's probably okay, <b>cheap pro-erex from canada</b>.  In a non-agile environment, <b>Pro-erex purchase</b>, Sarah hasn't made any commitments (she's been forced to agree to dates and scope, etc., but she hasn't made a commitment that she is empowered to live up to), <b>price of pro-erex</b>.  So if she goes off and does this one little thing, <b>No prescription pro-erex</b>, it probably will be just business as usual.  In an agile environment, the team has made a commitment and doing this work this way invalidates the team's commitment, <b>pro-erex canada</b>.</p>
<p><hr /> <b>Buy pro-erex without prescription</b>, Why do we do it this way.  The main reason is around trust and commitment.  <b>Discount pro-erex no rx</b>, Yup, it's that soft icky stuff that we're so incredibly bad at that customers think that bugs are normal, that management shoves the kitchen sink into projects in the frustrated hope that they'll get <em>something</em> out of the IT team at the end of the project, <b>where to buy pro-erex</b>.  Sound familiar to anyone?Anyway.  <b>Buy pro-erex canada</b>, An iteration is a commitment.  It is a firm and solid commitment, <b>buy pro-erex without prescription</b>.  The team as a group of smart and honorable people is making a definite commitment to the rest of the organization to get a certain amount of work done in a fixed amount of time.  In return, <b>pro-erex without prescription</b>, management is agreeing to give the team every support in reaching this commitment.  <b>Buy generic pro-erex online</b>, When a team is new at this, they might get it wrong.  But having done this with dozens of teams now, <b>cheap pro-erex no prescription</b>, I know that after a few tries, <b>Pro-erex online pharmacy</b>, the team gets the hang of it and commits to appropriate amounts of work, and management provides appropriate levels of support.  <b>Buy pro-erex without prescription</b>, This commitment is essential for developing trust.  And anything that comes in the way of the team meeting its commitment is considered "BAD", <b>pro-erex buy drug</b>.  An obstacle to do away with.  <b>Buy pro-erex without prescription</b>, This is interesting, because Joel's second example is about defects.  And I strongly agree that defects are "BAD" and need to be dealt with at a very high level of priority, <b>order pro-erex from us</b>.  The reason is simple: they prevent a team from meeting its commitment, <b>buy pro-erex without prescription</b>.</p>
<p><hr />One team I was coaching was constantly bombarded by these types of it'll-just-take-a-few-minutes-need-it-asap requests.  They had many stakeholders and very very limited resources to service these requests.  They had several small projects that were taking literally years to do because they couldn't get enough concentrated time on any one thing.  This was considered normal and good in their environment.The trouble is, no one had really looked at the overall consequences.  <b>Buy pro-erex without prescription</b>, Everyone was doing local optimization.  For us geeks, we all know that local optimization is something to be avoided if possible.  We climb a peak only to discover that we have to climb back down a ways to get up to the higher peak we now see is next to this one.  We climb up that one only to discover yet another higher peak even further along thus requiring us to climb down and up again...  When really what we should have done is stepped back a ways, looked at the lay of the land and said, "hey, that peak over there is the highest of them all, let's go climb that one."</p>
<p>Scrum helps us avoid local optimization by forcing <em>all</em> feature requests for a team to be prioritized in a list of work, <em>and</em> by allowing the team to complete small pieces of work so it actually gets _something_ done that you can learn from.</p>
<p><hr />Joel said:<br />
<blockquote><em>Agile is not supposed to be about swapping out one set of bureaucratic, rigid procedures for another equally rigid set of procedures that still doesn't take customer's needs into account.</em></blockquote><br />
True enough, <b>buy pro-erex without prescription</b>.  But it also demonstrates a serious lack of understanding about what is being done in Dmitri's example.  First of all, without being agile at all, it is possible to switch from 18 month projects to two week projects.  Both can be bureaucratic as you please (well, actually, there's only so much bureaucracy you can cram into two weeks and still get something done).  The shorter projects will allow you to be much more responsive to customer needs...  <b>Buy pro-erex without prescription</b>, by definition.</p>
<p>So what happens when you add in all the other things that agile really is about.  Transparency.  Truthfulness.  Creativity.  Learning, <b>buy pro-erex without prescription</b>.  Meta-Learning.  Prioritization.  Self-Organizating Teams.  Eliminating Waste.  <b>Buy pro-erex without prescription</b>, Well, first of what you get is something that's damn hard to do right.  It goes against almost everything we've been taught to do: the extreme of heroics of the extreme of careful planning and process.</p>
<p>Secondly, what you get is something that needs safety zones and meta-rules.  Like mutual, freely-given, team-to-stakeholders commitment.  Like assuming positive intent.</p>
<p>And thirdly, what you get is an environment where not only is the business getting what it needs more than it used to, but also, <em>the team likes working with the business, and the business likes working with the team</em>, <b>buy pro-erex without prescription</b>.</p>
<p><hr />I admit that the point Joel is making isn't too different.  Yes: look at the costs and the benefits.  But agile isn't quite about instantaneous responsiveness.  That's a red herring and I'm suprised that Joel threw it's stinky carcass into the discussion.  Agile is also about balancing that responsiveness with the overall view of value for the team and the organization.  The tool for doing that is the prioritized list of work, not the email message from Sales Guy to Sarah.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> I have now trained over one hundred people in my <a href="http://www.berteigconsulting.com/secure/a.php?r=AgileAdvice">Agile Project Managmenet / ScrumMaster Certification course</a> <b>Buy prometrium without prescription</b>, .  I'm starting to see and hear some of the results of this training, <b>where to order prometrium</b>.  <b>Buy cheapest prometrium on line</b>, There are a couple specific "smells" that I have become aware of.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Fortunately, <b>discount prometrium overnight delivery</b>, <b>Prometrium prices</b>, I've been able to provide coaching to some of the organizations that have sent people to my course.  There are quite a number of good things that happen, <b>cost prometrium</b>, <b>Buy cheapest prometrium online</b>, but there are a couple of things that seem to be "natural" misunderstandings.</p>
<p><ol><li><strong>Spectating</strong><br/>I put a lot of emphasis on the idea of a self-organizing team in my course, <b>buy prometrium without prescription</b>.  There are a number of exercises, <b>prometrium vendors</b>, <b>Order no rx prometrium</b>, an hour-long section, and many other points during the course when it comes up, <b>cheap prometrium on internet</b>.  <b>Overnight prometrium</b>, With all of this emphasis, it seems that a few people have come away from the course with an extremely hands-off approach to the <a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/archives/2005/09/process_facilit.html">Process Facilitator role (ScrumMaster/Agile Project Manager)</a>, <b>prometrium medication</b>.  <b>Find cheap prometrium online</b>, I think this is a natural and probably good reaction to the heavy-handed command & control approach that these people come from.  However, <b>buy prometrium once daily</b>, <b>Prometrium for order</b>, there are a few things that should be considered minimum levels of engagement (listed below).</li><li><strong>Problem Solving</strong><br/>There is also a great deal of emphasis put in the course on removing obstacles.  <b>Buy prometrium without prescription</b>, I have seen several cases where it becomes the habit of the Process Facilitator to start solving every problem.  This can happen in day-to-day work, <b>sale prometrium</b>, <b>Buy prometrium low price</b>, and also in the retrospectives.  Again, <b>tablet prometrium</b>, <b>Real prometrium without prescription</b>, this seems to be a natural consequence of the desire to get in there and be of value.  However, <b>prometrium online cheap</b>, <b>Buy prometrium from india</b>, if the Process Facilitator writes down all the "things that need impovement" from the retrospective and then says "Okay.  I'll take care of these things." then you know that the Process Facilitator has gone too far.</li></ol></p>
<p><strong>Appropriate Process Facilitator Engagement</strong></p>
<p>Here are a few ideas on an appropriate level of engagement, <b>buy generic prometrium</b>.  Finding the right balance of enagement is not easy and there is no exact formula to follow, <b>buy prometrium without prescription</b>.  <b>Prometrium online without prescription</b>, Partly it depends on your personality and skills as a Process Facilitator, partly it depends on the capabilities of the team, <b>prometrium online sales</b>, <b>Prometrium without rx</b>, and partly it depends on the constraints of your work environment.  Nevertheless, <b>prometrium free sample</b>, <b>Compare prometrium prices</b>, there are some types of engagement that you can persue with confidence.  Here are a few concrete guidelines:</p>
<p><ul><li><strong>Team Membership</strong><br/>If you aren't saying "we" when referring to the team, <b>buy no rx prometrium</b>, <b>Generic prometrium</b>, you aren't engaged enough.  The Process Facilitator is a member of the team.</li><li><strong>Colocation</strong><br/>Most of your time should be spent sitting with the team, <b>order prometrium in us</b>.  <b>Buy prometrium without prescription</b>, If the team isn't colocated, then you should be spending most of your time physically visiting each team member.</li><li><strong>Obligations</strong><br/>The Process Facilitator is a catalyst.  <b>Prometrium for sale</b>, You must track all the obstacles and "needs improvement" things that the team raises, and then make sure that they get fixed.., <b>buying generic prometrium</b>.  <b>Prometrium from india</b>, without going in and fixing everything yourself.  Ultimately, <b>buy prometrium us</b>, <b>Order cheap prometrium</b>, your job is to work yourself out of a job.</li><li><strong>Assertiveness</strong><br/>The organization that the team is working in will be creating some of the obstacles that the team is facing.  Being assertive is critical to helping the organization face and then overcome some of these obstacles.</li></ul>, <b>prometrium cheap drug</b>.  Prometrium information.  Cheap prometrium pharmacy.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Buy speman without prescription</b>, Starting off on the right foot is just as important as it ever was.  However, with Agile Work, <b>buy speman online cheap</b>, this takes on a significantly different meaning than it does in other methods as the emphasis of what is "right" is also significantly different.  <b>Speman generic</b>, This is a short guide on how to successfully launch a team using Agile Work.</p>
<p></p>
<p>0.  Do what you need to in your organization to get a project and its budget approved, <b>order speman from us</b>.  This usually involves some sort of business case, project charter and approval process, <b>buy speman without prescription</b>.  This may sound obvious, <b>Cheap speman tablets</b>, but the organizational support that this provides is essential.</p>
<p>1.  Management must have a basic understanding of the method and in particular the roles: <a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/archives/2006/08/the_queue_maste.html">Queue Master</a>, <b>buy generic speman</b>, <a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/archives/2005/09/process_facilit.html">Process Facilitator</a> and <a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/archives/2006/04/agile_adoption.html">Team</a>.  <b>Online speman</b>, This can be accomplished in a number of ways: reading, attending a workshop, or bringing a coach in to do a brief presentation, <b>speman pharmacy online</b>.  <b>Buy speman without prescription</b>, By "management" is meant at least the person sponsoring the launch of an agile team.</p>
<p>2.  <b>Order discount speman</b>, Individual people must be identified to fill the Queue Master and Process Facilitator roles.  At first, these people should be assigned to these roles full-time and relieved of their previous duties, <b>cheapest speman online</b>.  Ideally, <b>Order discount speman online</b>, the people filling these roles are volunteers from a pre-selected group of appropriate candidates.</p>
<p>3, <b>buy speman without prescription</b>.  The Queue Master and Process Facilitator must both get some initial training.  For this, <b>speman without rx</b>, the following books are recommended for both roles: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect?link_code=as2&path=ASIN/0131479415&tag=agiladvihowan-20&camp=1789&creative=9325">Agile Estimating and Planning (Robert C.  <b>Cheap speman from uk</b>, Martin Series)</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=agiladvihowan-20&l=as2&o=1&a=0131479415" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" />, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect?link_code=as2&path=ASIN/0321205685&tag=agiladvihowan-20&camp=1789&creative=9325">User Stories Applied: For Agile Software Development (Addison-Wesley Signature Series)</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=agiladvihowan-20&l=as2&o=1&a=0321205685" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" />, and <a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect?link_code=as2&path=ASIN/073561993X&tag=agiladvihowan-20&camp=1789&creative=9325">Agile Project Management with Scrum (Microsoft Professional)</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=agiladvihowan-20&l=as2&o=1&a=073561993X" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" />, <b>cheap speman internet</b>.  Unfortunately, <b>Cheap speman from usa</b>, all of these books are software-specific and if you need to apply Agile Work in a non-software environment, there will be some effort in translating the concepts and practices.  <b>Buy speman without prescription</b>, You may need more specific training depending on the criticality of your pilot project.</p>
<p>4, <b>compare speman prices</b>.  Form up the team.  <b>Find discount speman online</b>, Getting this right is not easy: the team needs to remain relatively small (5 people is about right), but at the same time include people with all the skills necessary to deliver the whole project.  You need people who are good at the various technical skills needed, <b>speman</b>, the people skills needed, <b>Speman online without a prescription</b>, the problem-solving and analysis skills needed, and the administrative skills.  All these people need to be part of the team right from the start, <b>buy speman without prescription</b>.  Again, <b>order speman no prescription required</b>, for emphasis: <em>do not start the project before all these people and their skills are dedicated to the team and they have been relieved of their previous duties</em>.  <b>Buy cheap speman online</b>, Forming the team includes logistical concerns such as where the team will sit, making sure they have the right equipment for their work, etc, <b>speman in australia</b>.</p>
<p>5.  <b>Speman medication</b>, If you are trying agile for the first time, don't consider using a distributed team or off-shore resources.  <b>Buy speman without prescription</b>, Nor telecommuters.  This type of stuff is better left for once your organization has more experience with agile methods, <b>canada speman</b>.</p>
<p>6.  <b>Speman online pharmacy</b>, Provide initial training to your team.  Include the Queue Master and Process Facilitator in this training (they are considered part of the team).  Also include any significant stakeholders in the results of the project, <b>buy speman without prescription</b>.  Give them, <b>speman cheap</b>, at a minimum, <b>Find speman online</b>, a one-day introduction to agile.</p>
<p>7.  The Queue Master creates an initial <a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/archives/2006/06/agile_work_arti.html">Work Queue</a>, <b>speman without prescription</b>.  The rest of the team should participate in this process.  <b>Buy speman without prescription</b>, The creation of this Work Queue must be timeboxed.  <b>Speman without a prescription</b>, I advise that it should only be given 1 or 2 percent of the overall project time.  Decide before you start on how long will be given to this.  The end result of this is a Work Queue that has some number of work items defined, <b>overnight speman</b>, understood by the team, <b>Cheap generic speman</b>, valued, costed, and prioritized, <b>find no rx speman</b>.  The Work Queue does not have to be "finished".  <em>It is more important to hold to the timebox than to get the Work Queue "right".</em>  Remember that the Work Queue will continue to be refined as the team progresses in its work, <b>buy speman without prescription</b>.  <b>Buy speman</b>, <em>Do not under any circumstances create the initial Work Queue in the <a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/archives/2006/06/fantasy_estimat.html">absence of the team</a>!</em></p>
<p>8.  Run a brief project workshop.  In this workshop, <b>cheap speman online</b>, the team answers basic questions about the nature of the project run with agile methods such as:- what is the <a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/archives/2006/01/the_pros_and_co.html">length of our iterations</a>.  <b>Speman rx</b>, - what are the team's core hours (when do all the team members commit to working together as opposed to working on administrivia).  <b>Buy speman without prescription</b>, - what other teams/groups do we need to work with.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Cialis online without prescription</b>, Today I had a very interesting and unique opportunity.  I went through my agile project management training materials with a single individual instead of a class, <b>cialis uk</b>.  <b>Order discount cialis online</b>, Was it training, or was it coaching, <b>cialis no rx required</b>.  <b>Cialis online review</b>, The materials are from my <a href="http://www.berteigconsulting.com/archives/2005/01/schedule_of_pub.html">ScrumMaster certification course</a>.  They are meant to be delivered to a group of 5 to 20 people in a training seminar setting, <b>buy cheap cialis</b>.  Many of the exercises are pair or small group exercises, including three very critical exercises, <b>cialis online without prescription</b>.  <b>Cialis online cheap</b>, They are built as a presentation deck (in <a href="http://www.openoffice.org/">OpenOffice.org</a>).  So of course, <b>cialis sale</b>, <b>Cialis online</b>, I normally use a projector as I'm conducting the course.</p>
<p>Today however, <b>cialis without prescription</b>, <b>Order cialis on internet</b>, due to low enrollments in a course I had originally scheduled for today and tomorrow, I made alternative arrangements with the few registered participants, <b>cheap cialis online</b>.  <b>Cheap cialis overnight delivery</b>, One of those participants has accepted a one-on-one training engagement in lieu of the classroom environment.  <b>Cialis online without prescription</b>, When I arrived at the office to deliver this course, and after this individual and I did brief introductions, I made a very substantial disclaimer:</p>
<p>1.  I've never delivered these materials to just a single individual so I don't know how well they will work2, <b>cialis pharmacy</b>.  <b>Discount cialis online</b>, Much of the benefit of the course comes from the exercises and most of them we will not be able to do without more people3.  One possible advantage will be an ability to go in-depth on questions specific to this person's concerns</p>
<p>As it turns out, <b>order cialis</b>, <b>Purchase cialis online</b>, I needn't have been too worried.  The course has been delivered numerous times and refined over the past eight months to the point where it is quite effective, <b>no prescription cialis</b>.  There are very few typos or other errors in the materials, <b>cialis online without prescription</b>.  <b>Cialis drug</b>, The content is very focused to the target audience: potential agile project managers/<a href="http://www.scrumalliance.org/">ScrumMasters</a>/<a href="http://www.agileadvice.com/archives/2005/10/agile_coachment.html">process facilitators</a>.  So, <b>buy cialis no prescription required</b>, <b>Find cialis without prescription</b>, much to my surprise, the course went along with it's normal very good timing, <b>generic cialis</b>.  <b>Buy cialis low price</b>, Of course, we spent a little less time on the exercises (although we still reviewed them), <b>price of cialis</b>, <b>Buy cheapest cialis on line</b>, and we spent more time than normal on open discussion.  But at the end of the day, <b>cheap cialis from usa</b>, <b>Cheap cialis without prescription</b>, I was exactly at the end of the first day's materials.  <b>Cialis online without prescription</b>, This got me to thinking: what difference is there between coaching and training.  My training materials work very well in this one-on-one environment, <b>cialis india</b>.  <b>Purchase cialis</b>, They are a very compressed way of communicating a great deal of information in a way that ensures good comprehension.  In fact, <b>cialis internet</b>, <b>Buy cialis online without prescription</b>, in many ways, the one-on-one format is more effective than a class format since I am able to have a very good feeling for the receptivity, <b>buy cialis pills</b>, <b>Cialis in uk</b>, comprehension and needs of my "apprentice"... much more so than I am able in a class setting, <b>pharmacy cialis</b>.</p>
<p>My experience coaching is usually a combination of team coaching and one-on-one coaching with a designated "apprentice", <b>cialis online without prescription</b>.  <b>Buy generic cialis</b>, This combination is effective for getting a team going with agile and making sure that early stages of team development go relatively smoothly.  However, <b>cialis australia</b>, <b>Cialis online without a prescription</b>, the majority of my high-impact work with the team is in the initial training and in the few other critical points that occur over the course of 8 to 12 weeks.  Much of my coaching time is just being there as a safety net while the team and the process facilitator try out the new practices I've introduce to them, <b>cialis in bangkok</b>.  <b>Cialis</b>, As a result, I've recently decided that I will avoid full-time coaching engagements, <b>order cheap cialis</b>.  <b>Cialis online without prescription</b>, Instead, I prefer an approach that gives the team and the process facilitator much more time on their own.  <b>Cialis order</b>, So again, this starts to look a little like training: I do an initial 3 or 4 days of high intensity training to get a team going then do a bit of facilitation and "spot" training on specific topics as the need arises.</p>
<p>Conclusions.  Well, first of all, I really enjoy working one-on-one, and I also really enjoy the classroom type training.  Both seem to me to be very effective and that makes me feel good :-)  The distinction between the two approaches is now very <a href="http://www.edbatista.com/2006/03/mentoring_train_1.html">blurred</a> for me and I feel that I can offer my clients a more nuanced approach along a spectrum that I wasn't really aware of before.  To me that means being more flexible, more agile :-) and hopefully, more valuable.</p>
