#49. I'm joined by Gus Gonzalez and Joel Lindstrom to discuss the role of solution architects in agile teams implementing Microsoft Business Applications.
We chill out on the mics and discuss:

  • Why weren't Joel and Guz at MVP this year?
  • Intrinsic and extrinsic solution architects
  • What is the role of a solution architect today?
  • Resource and delivery co-ordination
  • Go-to person and a face for the developers
  • Can a solution design document be dangerous
  • Is the blueprint the new solution design document?
  • Decision logs and the reasons why it's designed that way

#47. Is Scrum the best approach to use for every Microsoft Business Application?

No!

Join me, as we explore the Stacey and Cynefin models that help us make judgements about which types of applications are suited to a Scrum approach and which aren't.

#46. Ryan Ripley joins me in Amazing Apps to discuss his new book, Fixing Your Scrum.

Ryan is a Professional Scrum Trainer with Scrum.org. We also discuss:

  • The suitability of Scrum for Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Power Platform projects. Is the Scrum framework appropriate for enterprise Dynamics 365 ERP projects and smaller Power Apps projects?
  • Ryan’s advice for line-of-business managers who are taking on the product owner role for the first time in their Microsoft Business Applications project.
  • Whether it’s a good idea for scrum masters to take product owner training.
  • The range of courses and certifications available from Scrum.org and who should consider taking the Professional Scrum Foundations course.
  • How program, project and release planning practices can be added to the Scrum framework.
  • What’s in the next version of the Scrum Guide (if Ryan and I were invited to edit it).
  • And Ryan’s favourite topic, the sprint goal.

Agile is Dead

Amazing Applications

02/09/20 β€’ 11 min

#44. Someone sends me an "Agile is Dead" article at least once a year. Are these articles with their clickbait headlines just opinion pieces with no data to back up the authors' claims or are they well-researched and thought-provoking journalism?

Here's one, Agile software development is dead. Deal with it. It was written by Jason Bloomberg and published in SiliconANGLE.

I have some fun with the author's claims that agile software is dead because it's 19, is impossible to scale, and promotes exclusion.

#42. The topic for this episode is scrum teams. The composition and the characteristics of your scrum team remain fundamental to you having any success with an agile approach when you're implementing business applications.

I recently refreshed the content of the scrum team section in my Scrum for Microsoft Business Apps course. In this refresh, I added a new video which answers frequently asked questions about scrum teams. I thought it would be a good idea to share some of those FAQs with the Scrum Dynamics audience to give you a sneak peek into the kind of topics you'll find in the course.

Student shout-out to Jackie Walker from Capgemini and Veronica Kamph from CRM-Konsulterna.
