Pam Johnson works with Scripps Networks Interactive and they have been doing Agile for 3 years with 30+ development teams.
Pam describes a well understood and fully functional Agile enterprise. A very good example of how Agile is done successfully in a large organization with many teams.
This was an interesting talk because Pam gives the audience a view of a very successful Agile enterprise. There were some interesting points to take away but many of the points were covered by previous speakers.
Pam's talk was a nice end to the main speakers in that it gave us a refreshing look at a very well oiled Agile enterprise. We hope for continued success for Pam and Scripps Network!
Some of the changes that the Scripps Network needs to continue to improve include:
- Better defined project initiation processes
- Improve turnaround time for obstacle clearing
- Leadership coaching within teams
- Continued efforts to move from transactional leadership to transformational leadership
- Continue to mature relationships with development teams
- Get more granular with regard to defining roles and responsibilities for project managers, team members, and functional managers
- Continued cross training - Become more generic and less heroic
