Agile is not a Project Management Methodology
Karl A L Smith
July 18, 2022
This is fundamental to understand what Agile is, the benefits it delivers and how to implement it. Agile is fundamentally about moving to a trust relationship with staff and evolving past the industrial revolution practice of overseers for ignorant and unskilled workers.
Agile does not have Projects or Programs
Agile is a methodology to create and start the continuous delivery of work. Agile enables the solving of complex problems by breaking the work down into small chunks of (financial, functional, regulatory or reputational) value and delivering them in a consistent flow. Projects and Project Managers are replaced by a team run self-service backlog. The Scrum Master is an activity and not a role which can be done by any team member to facilitate agile practices and events (like the daily stand up). A key indication of the adoption of agile is less management of all kinds, no program management, no project managers and no team management.

I also don’t want to get involved in the various fights, not because I can’t fight, but because I see no value in those fights.

Combining Agile and UX in Organisational Design for Business Agility and Agile Transformation
Polymath Knowledge
December 02, 2020
Some things to understand before getting into the main article. Agile is based on some very human concepts around how to work and what to value. Some of these concepts are exactly the same as UX and are driven by the same desire for simplicity and functionality.
Agile in its most basic sense is about people, how they work with other people and how to maintain a continuous flow of transparent work. In Agile many people will focus on ‘continuous flow’ and ‘transparent work’ and forget the ‘how to work’ and ‘other people’ negating them to agile ceremonies, frameworks and practices. This of course creates an imbalance in organisations adopting agile, as their focus is not on how it affects people, their sense of worth, emotions and their carefully crafted mental models around work and colleagues as much as changing what work is.

Ever since transformation and change were linked to technology some of the worst parts of both have been combined on a national level and within major companies.
Giving users less functionality than they currently have and telling them it’s a great leap forward.
It is astonishing but this is the most common failing in projects, for some reason senior stakeholders appear to be convinced that technology is good and experience is bad. And if they concentrate on a new end state, all that is bad will go away. In a sad way all that is experience and knowledge are the things that go away often taking competitive advantage with them.

Decision Point AI are working with the Paisley YMCA, Scotland on a secure application that standardises both the SHANARRI social framework processes and its data. SHANARRI is an acronym for the eight wellbeing indicators in the Curriculum for Excellence (CfE) in Health and Wellbeing. It stands for Safe, Healthy, Achieving, Nurtured, Active, Respected, Responsible, Included. The indicators are used to structure the information recorded about a child or young person and to monitor their progress across social services.
Since starting Decision Point AI, we have had to work hard to demystify AI and focus on real world problems with potential clients. We have done this by using professional service consulting and human centred design methodologies along with our AI’s subjective logic, conditional logic and bayesian probability or networks we provide actionable, relatable and accountable decision points to our clients and their end users.

Know your customer, alternatively known as know your client or simply KYC, is the process of a business verifying the identity of its clients and assessing their suitability, along with the potential risks of illegal intentions towards the business relationship. It is also focused on needs and objectives of clients, in a way that is unrelated to financial products or services.

Speeding up the Wrong Work DevOps Maturity in Business Decisions #BusinessAgility | Karl Smith UX CX Agility AI IoT Leadership Blog

January 22, 2019
It’s a fact that common sense it not that common and is often not a factor except in reflection after the fact. If we could simply learn from each other rather than rely upon a uniqueness agenda, businesses would stop creating the same failure points with new language and excuses around it.
Digital is a form of communication with customers, where technology is the mechanism
Accepting that digital and its underwriting technologies is the common parlance of success in our world would greatly decrease business fostered failure. Additionally, if business would participate in digital and technology, joining the team, then the choice of work would get considerably better. After all its impossible to read people’s minds to understand their intent let alone their exact need, but if people are all in it together they work at being understood and understanding in a way that is foreign to hierarchical businesses.

It’s not for the lack of trying or spending millions on developing and building huge data systems, the problems are many but can be traced back to one simple thing;
“Data only describes part of the what is happening and almost nothing of the why, let alone what should be done to change the situation”
Clients have been sold that data gives them the answers and that big data will close the loop for them to understand the upstream and downstream thinking of their customers, WRONG.

Most people don’t even know that an online census is designed they just think you take the paper form and put it online.

Also peoples expectations of a digital experience is higher than a real world experience and that goes back to the notion that “technology is here to help us” which we all know is not really true. Additionally there is a whole raft of legislation pertaining to human rights, ease of access and use for people with disabilities which must be considered before starting (which have always been impossible to add in a retrospective fashion, enterprise systems architects take note).

Governance is a Business Enabler
Having written several enterprise governance documents using ISO/IEC 385000 as a template I am well aware that governance is one of those areas that is much misunderstood.
Well constructed and managed governance is open and obvious, it is designed to enable business and has an active and transparent policy creation and updating process. However, there is a huge amount of governance set up to chain the business to policies that are truly complex, meaningless in the current context and have become a power base in their own right.

Digit,Fyi
May 17, 2017
Something few people have grasped yet is that to get from Smart Technologies to IoT and onwards to Smart Living (Ubiquity) requires progression. Not just in terms of sensors, networks and device thinking, but also in terms of ecosystems and task thinking (to discern if they are even relevant, not just the form). As with every other revolution, not only do time and people change the meaning of the revolution, they also change the trajectory.

I tend to think of myself as a futurist, I immediately see the possibilities of technologies as part of a much larger ecosystem than the one it is intended for.
I look for ways to test and assess “How we might Live” with the technology and how it will adapt our lives, our cultures and move humanity onwards to greater things.

I have been an Agile practitioner a very long time, in fact as an Instructional Designer I was very excited when Agile was created based upon Computer Human Interaction methods and thinking. As one complete fully applied process Agile is astoundingly effective at bringing together all the best capabilities within a project team and totally removing the hierarchical and often power crazed notion of single point leadership.

There is a notional level where technology creates an absolute route to a desired conclusion. This determination surmises a benign, logical process or system which creates processes and control mechanisms free from random, illogical and uncontrolled influences (McLoughlin, 1999). However while an idealised perfect use of technology may create such an operation its use by people automatically creates random, illogical and uncontrolled influences.

User experience (UX) is about how a person feels, appropriates, attributes and generally thinks about using a product, system or service. 'Listen or well go elsewhere', because we can and will seek our own needs before yours.
