Map What Is, Get to What's Next
This experience report details my involvement with 3 organizations of 3 different sizes (small startup, small-to-medium enterprise, and giant enterprise) to illustrate how I've used a form of Value Stream Mapping to help them define their current state and leverage data collected in the process to confidently identify (often surprising) risks and opportunities.
Takeaways:
- How to step back, visualize and measure to challenge assumptions, gain clarity and share it.
- Remove uncertainty about where to focus, how to communicate and represent flow.
- How to create lean, high impact value stream illustrations to make stronger decisions.
