If you need to run a project – you’ve already failed
#noprojects
Evan Leybourn
Agile India 2016
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
Come with an open mind
This is a controversial topic
@eleybourn
PART ONE
Understanding projects
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
What exactly is a project?
A temporary structure to govern and deliver a
complex change (such as a new product)
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
Projects are expensive
The three O’s of project cost;
1. Overheads,
2. Overruns and
3. Opportunity costs
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
Projects fail
The definition of insanity is to “do the same thing
and expect a different result”
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
Projects focus on the wrong thing
What is measurable not what is valuable
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
Projects are temporary (products aren’t)
Products don’t end when the project does – don’t
artificially constrain them & lose key skills
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
@eleybourn
PART TWO
introducing #noprojects
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
Continuous change is the alternative!
The approach and structure to successfully deliver
continuous change without a project
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
What is #noprojects?
The alignment of activities to outcomes
measured by value,
constrained by guiding principles and
supported by continuous delivery technologies
@eleybourn
The continuous culture
Continuous delivery,
deployment,
monitoring,
strategy,
planning,
design,
marketing,
@eleybourn
PART THREE
Where to begin
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
Outcomes over outputs
Outcomes are valuable, planned, slowly changing
and define a common direction for all work
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
Working principles
Common, agreed, and prioritised constraints that
shape all activities
(e.g. quality, communication, staff engagement,
security, or branding)
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
Understanding the value of work
Value degrades
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
Understanding the value of work
High value activities may come later
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
Understanding the value of work
Local Maxima
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
Understanding the value of work
The “So What” Factor
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
Value delivery teams
Dedicated cross-functional teams that contain the
required skills to deliver an outcome
(e.g. developers, testers, HR, accountants,
sales/marketing)
@eleybourn
PART FOUR
Delivering work
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
The activity canvas
An activity is any discrete work that is undertaken
as part of a change
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
The technology of #noprojects
Automated testing, continuous integration,
continuous delivery, and DevOps
@DipeshPala
@eleybourn
Funding #noprojects
Change the question – not “how much will this
cost?”, but rather “how much is it worth?”
