54. Will ESP work in Mexico?
Remember
David’s talk on
LKNA
55. Mexican culture to take into account
I heard is a bit:
• hierarchical and top down decision making..
• it can be a bit bureaucratic.
• a silo mentality.
• a culture of fear.
• have a good (funny) sense of humor.
• they are lovely and welcoming people.
• be careful with the “ahorita” and “un detalle”.
56. Pains found
• Shadow teams in the organization
• Slow product development perception.
• High degree of complex dependencies.
• Little measurement.
• Awkward estimation process.
• HIPO and long prioritization process.
• High degree of deviation delivering projects.
• Higher demand than capacity

98. Best Day adopting Kanban Practices
• Visualize = initially so so in metrics … then super
heroes.
• Limit WIP = very very hard!. It is hard to say “No”.
The norm is to be overloaded of work.
• Manage Flow = an “aha” moment is needed.
• Make Policies Explicit= Be SUPER explicit
(anti-backlog)
• Implement Feedback Loops = be sandwitch
• Improve collaboratively and evolve experimentaly =
very hard setting up metrics
99. - Continue working with our leadership on organizational
culture.
- Promote social networking
- Implement ESP Cadences.
- Kanbanizing Organization with the help of the “Kanban
Flight Levels” view.
- Review ESP Strategy with top management using KMM.
