\n

You like or should work in an Agile way? Now you still have a few questions? You are not alone. For example, I was asked the other day: <\/b><\/p>\n

\n

Which is the first step into agile working forms that I take alone, and which one that I take with others?<\/h1>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
Two tips I can give you on this are<\/div>\n
\n

Firstly: For you personally<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\n
Understand that AGILITY IS A TEAM SPORT. In other words, even if you know as much as you can about Agile, you won’t get far on your own despite all your knowledge and skills.\u00a0<\/strong><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Nevertheless, if you want to take a step on your own, find out what Agile actually all about, what it’s there for and what it means.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n

The best fundamental reading I know on the subject of Agile,<\/h2>\n
\n

(I repeat myself, I know): The Scrum Guide.\u00a0It explains the game, the team formation and the basic tactics – to stay in the image of team sports.<\/strong><\/p>\n

From my experience, that’s enough. That’s all it really needs (for now). However, in case you see it differently, i.e. if the Scrum Guide is not enough for you, you are welcome to read the Scrum Guide again. And then, if necessary, also other literature, e.g. about Kanban (references below).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

But then you should as soon as possible<\/h2>\n
start consulting with your teammates on how you can organise yourselves TOGETHER in a more Agile way. Let’s therefore move on to:<\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n

Second: Start by doing regular retrospectives together<\/strong><\/h2>\n
With your team (this should ideally include team leads or heads of department, or even management!). One to two hours. At least every fortnight, maximum four weeks. Over and over again. No interruption!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Ask yourself the following questions openly and honestly:\u00a0<\/strong><\/div>\n
