Treat work like a virus and teams like the immune system
What if our belief in cross-functional, stable teams is wrong?
What if our team structures don’t fit today’s business context and actually make developers’ lives harder?
This talk is a thought experiment based on 20+ years of experience with Agile and Business Agility. Again and again we see:
• Specialists isolated within “teams”
• Dependencies on other teams for key skills
• Little chance to grow the skills needed for the work at hand
Why? Because most Agile frameworks assume the team is the right unit. And yes, most of the time teams are great. But they’re not always the answer.
Our work happens in a VUCA/BANI world. We must turn uncertain ideas into real products fast. This requires structures that are flexible, adaptive, and dynamic.
What if we treated work like a virus? The moment it appears, we assemble the right mix of skills to tackle it, deliver or discard it quickly, then re-assess the team structure. New work? New team. Repeat.
In this session, Jose will share stories, experiments, and actionable ideas you can take back to your own context.
Flow Mapping: Better Business Agility with Flight Levels
Organisations know that achieving better Business Agility is key for their long-term survival. However, most Agile Transformations fail to deliver their expected outcomes. Many lose momentum and are cancelled before they can be completed.So, why do we fail so often?Business Agility requires a fundamental change of mindset; moving from Resource thinking to Flow thinking.This change is hard and scary. So, instead, many companies focus on team-level agility and hope that is enough. Unfortunately, this rarely works.In this talk, Jose will explore how you can achieve better business agility by focusing on the Flow of work with Flight Levels.
