An experience report on portfolio planning at Scale
Please log in to watch this conference skillscast.
Issues such as:
- How do you prioritise work?
- What reporting do you need to optimise the constraints.
- What additional roles do you need beyond the standard Agile/Lean roles.
- What is the role of management.
- What things do you need to consider when designing for staff liquidity?
- How do you identify HR policies that need to be changed?
- How do you decide on the approach to building a solution?
Unlike many approaches to scaling agile, a Theory of Constraints based approach does not provide solutions, instead it highlights constraints that a company needs to address given its particular context. As such, it is an approach to adapts to context rather than ignore it.
