Some products fail due to a flawed busines s model while others are neither desirable nor useful. This workshop inv ites teams to shift their thinking from developing a product or service to delivering a holistic solution that balances business\, usage\, and t echnology. \;\n \;\nThe Three-Circle Model is both a descriptive a nd a prescriptive approach to develop holistic solutions. It is based on the three fundamental perspectives needed for a balanced and compelling solution\; Business\, Usage\, and Technology. \;\n-The Business circ le represents the economic viewpoint. A solution must be marketable\, pr ofitable\, and affordable. \;\n-The Usage circle represents the conce ptual viewpoint. A solution must be desirable\, usable\, and useful. \;\n-The Technology circle represents the implementation viewpoint. A so lution must be manufacturable\, functional\, and consumable (by the indu stry and associated ecosystems). \;\n \;\nThese three circles can be arranged in a Venn diagram with overlaps for Value\, Capability\, and Ingredients. \;\n \;\nThe Three-Circle Model forms a cohesive and consistent taxonomy that can be used by organizations as the basis of a shared vocabulary\, thereby reducing misinterpretations and wasteful co mmunication churn. The model is also the underlying architecture for a s olution life cycle. Unlike other life cycles with phases that are based on activities (e.g. exploration\, planning\, development)\, the solution life cycle’s phases are based on the state of the solution itself. This makes the life cycle activity and method agnostic\, so it works with Ag ile\, Lean\, traditional\, and hybrid approaches. \;\n \;\nLearnin g Outcomes: \;\n-Describe the three fundamental perspectives of a sol utions: Business\, Usage\, and Technology \;\n-Describe the three two -circle overlaps in the model: Value\, Capability\, and Ingredient \; \n-Understand what a balanced solution means \;\n-Evaluate a product\ , service\, or solution using the model to locate weaknesses and knowled ge gaps \;\n-Apply the Three-Circle Model to a solution life cycle 3\;\n-Improve communication among teams using a common vocabulary and ta xonomy for solution development \;\n-Use the model to diagnose and im prove issues in solution development \;\n \;\nWho should attend:&# 13\;\nProduct management\, product owners\, product developers\, service designers\, architects\, product managers\, engineers\, business develo pment\, business strategy\, marketing\, planners\, project managers\, so ftware developers \;\n\n\nTags: product management\, Product Owners\, product developers\, service designers\, architects\, Product managers\ , engineers\, business development\, business strategy\, marketing\, pla nners\, project managers\, Software developers\n\nImported from: http:// calagator.org/events/1250471880 URL:https://www.eventbrite.com/e/introduction-to-balanced-solutions-mini- workshop-tickets-33517643173 SUMMARY:Introduction to Balanced Solutions Mini-Workshop LOCATION:Lucky Labrador Beer Hall: 1945 NW Quimby\, Portland OR 97209 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20170508T014432Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20170530T203000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20170530T180000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20170508T014432Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20170508T014432Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250471881 DESCRIPTION:Level up your skills\, network with peers\, and learn to acce lerate stakeholder value delivery with this unique workshop from nuCogni tive. \;\n \;\nThe first Agile principle is "\;Our highest pri ority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery o f valuable software."\; However\, in practice this does not seem to be true nearly as often as it should be. Teams often fail to provide ear ly\, frequent delivery of stakeholder value. Instead\, they focused on s pikes\, class libraries\, infrastructure\, and other inward-focused work \, without an understanding of their stakeholders and what they value. A s a result\, many teams start with what is most familiar\, easiest\, or most convenient for them rather than what stakeholders value most. \; \n \;\nWhy do teams often become focused on (or even obsessed with) f eature development and maximizing development velocity? Without explicit focus on value\, the association between velocity\, feature development \, and value-delivery is weak - perhaps even non-existent. At best\, the se projects are conducted sub-optimally. Frequently\, they fail when sta keholders remove funding because they perceive a lack of value add. \ ;\n \;\nValue-driven delivery is achieved using the answers to three simple\, but not at all easy\, questions: \;\n1. Who are your stakeho lders? \;\n2. What do they value? \;\n3. What are you doing in the next two weeks or less to provide value to them? \;\n \;\nTeams o ften have many more stakeholders than they first realize. Value-driven D elivery ensures those stakeholders are made explicit\, and that the list of stakeholders is kept current throughout the project. \;\n \;\n Value-driven delivery captures and maintains stakeholder values in a qua ntified\, verifiable way. This ensures that teams can know the real effe cts of each stakeholder value delivery\, and prevents work based on an o utdated understanding of value. \;\n \;\nValue-driven Delivery als o challenges teams to sequence deliveries so that they deliver the most valuable things first. This can have tremendous benefits\, generating ea rly business results and reducing the time required for the team to get into a positive Return on Investment for the project. \;\n \;\nVal ue-driven delivery makes a natural overlay for Scrum\, but does not requ ire Scrum's use to be effective. Value-driven delivery does not ignore f eatures and velocity\, but it explicitly places value delivery above tho se things as the top priority. \;\n \;\nTwo other advantages to Va lue-driven Delivery worth mentioning: First\, it is not limited to softw are\, but applies to all aspects of an organization\, including the exec utive suite\, human resources\, finance\, IT\, and product teams. Second \, it is not focused on or limited to any particular scale. In fact\, it is scale-free\, working on small teams and teams of more than 500 engin eers in a 100K-person company. \;\n \;\nLearning Outcomes: \;\n -The definition and nature of value \;\n-The principles and practices of Value-driven Delivery \;\n-How to use Evolutionary Delivery to ma nage value-driven work\, alone or in concert with Scrum \;\n-Fundamen tals of several disciplines and models that aid value-driven work\, incl uding the Kano Model\, elements from Diffusion of Innovations\, UX Proof Points\, and the HEART Framework \;\n-Attendees will gain enough und erstanding to begin using Value-driven Delivery in their own work if the y desire. \;\n-Additional sources of information will be provided for continued learning. \;\n \;\nWho should attend: \;\nProduct ma nagement\, product owners\, product developers\, service designers\, arc hitects\, product managers\, engineers\, business development\, business strategy\, marketing\, planners\, project managers\, software developer s\n\nTags: product management\, Product Owners\, product developers\, se rvice designers\, architects\, Product managers\, engineers\, business d evelopment\, business strategy\, marketing\, planners\, project managers \, Software developers\, agile\, lean\n\nImported from: http://calagator .org/events/1250471881 URL:https://www.eventbrite.com/e/value-driven-delivery-mini-workshop-tick ets-33773095237 SUMMARY:Value-driven Delivery Mini-Workshop LOCATION:Lucky Labrador Beer Hall: 1945 NW Quimby\, Portland OR 97209 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20171121T224013Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20171130T130000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20171130T120000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20171121T224013Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20171121T224013Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250472886 DESCRIPTION:Raking Leaves in a Hurricane (Day in the LIfe of a Community Manager) What does a technical community manager for a global tech compa ny do?
