Framework

Introduction

Agile isn’t a methodology – a set of fixed and typically highly prescriptive set of processes. Agile frameworks define a purposefully minimal and incomplete set of approaches to planning, managing, and executing work.

Agile frameworks typically fall into two categories:

  • Frameworks designed for teams.
  • Frameworks designed to help organisations practice Agile at scale, across many teams.

Ultimately, each framework operates as the guardrails – the minimum set of rules – for teams to self-manage within.

Actions

  • Choose a framework from the list below.

What did the team do that caused quality to improve or get worse? When did this occur?

Teamwork

Was collaboration more effective? What did the team do to make them feel this way? Ensure you know the cause so you can repeat it next time.

Stakeholder collaboration

Did stakeholders report they felt more engaged? What did the team do to cause this? How will you make sure it happens again?

Goal Achieved
