THE PREMISE
We should all strive to ship on time, with high
quality
BUT

THE WAY TO achieve this changes based on
Your team’s skills to handle
the current reality
![Page 7: Introduction to Elastic Leadership](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061103/540bfcda8d7f72f36a8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
THE THREE TEAM STAGES
DEAL WITH
SKILLS FACING REALITY
CHAOS LEARNING Self Organization
![Page 8: Introduction to Elastic Leadership](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061103/540bfcda8d7f72f36a8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
CHAOSWE NEVER HAVE TIME TO
(learn how to) REFACTOR/UNIT TEST!!
My machine is too slow!
That PM keeps coming in in the middle of iteration and asking for MORE STUFF!!

YOU, DEAR TEAM LEADER, ARE A BOTTLENECK
![Page 10: Introduction to Elastic Leadership](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061103/540bfcda8d7f72f36a8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
THE CHAOSADDICTION
![Page 11: Introduction to Elastic Leadership](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061103/540bfcda8d7f72f36a8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
HOW DO WE LOSE QUALITY?
1.Dilemma: Write tests, or get it done?
2.Answer – No time! fix the fire, get it done!
3.Feeling == good
![Page 12: Introduction to Elastic Leadership](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061103/540bfcda8d7f72f36a8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
ONE WEEK LATER1.Dilemma: Write tests, or
get it done?
2.What did we do last time? How did it feel?
3.Answer – Felt good to ship. Let’s do it again!
4.Feeling == good
![Page 13: Introduction to Elastic Leadership](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061103/540bfcda8d7f72f36a8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
ONE MONTH LATEROUR CODE SUCKS!
WE HAVE TO do a REWRITE!!
![Page 14: Introduction to Elastic Leadership](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061103/540bfcda8d7f72f36a8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
NO CHECK-IN WITHOUT A CODE REVIEW, GOT IT?
![Page 15: Introduction to Elastic Leadership](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061103/540bfcda8d7f72f36a8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
BUT THERE’S NO TIME FOR THAT!
![Page 16: Introduction to Elastic Leadership](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061103/540bfcda8d7f72f36a8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
A TEAM LEADER DURING CHAOS
• SET and demand QUALITY bar to be high (if that’s the problem)
• REMOVE ENOUGH COMMITMENTS to make time to learn
• BUT only starting next month• THIS month – you finish what you
can in a month
• NEXT month: you start the LEARNING phase
![Page 17: Introduction to Elastic Leadership](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061103/540bfcda8d7f72f36a8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
LEARNING PHASE
HARDCORE CODE REVIEWSUNIT TESTINGTDD
SLOWLY TEACH YOUR TEAM TO SOLVE THEIR OWN PROBLEMS
At least x3 time per estimate
![Page 18: Introduction to Elastic Leadership](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061103/540bfcda8d7f72f36a8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
A TEAM LEADER IN LEARNING PHASE WOULD..Let people fail and learn from failure
Redirects the ship if failure time will be too big
Challenges people to grow and solve their own problems
What are you going to do about it?
WE NEED MORE TESTS!
