System Improvement Future Reality Tree

System Improvement results from three equally important and mutually dependent factors:
  • Effective methods
  • the potential to apply them
  • the self-discipline to act using the methods
Two of these three factors in turn, depend on:
  • Our knowledge about our system
  • Authority (including resources) to do something about it
  • Motivation to improve
  • Willingness to accept accountability for action

Business & Economy - Wall Street Crash & U.S. sub-prime market (Part 1)

History of economy would suggest that once every couple of generations there is a complete prosperity-depression cycle that occurs within the financial market, and economy as a whole. The last time this happened was in the 1920’s, and 30’s. It started with the Wall Street Crash of 1929, and then it moved through to the Great Depression and ended beyond World War II. The current global financial and economic situation resulting from crisis caused by the U.S. sub-prime market appears to be the start of one of these historic cycles at this point in the maturation of the human race. Despite the fact that U.S. economy is in recession, there are many contradictory opinions about another financial and economical crisis. The purpose of this blog is to clarify similarities and differences between the economical events in 1920's, and 30's with current global financial and economic situation.

Yes, I know it is little bit funny and too much sad, Since all other countries started to think about this science more than 50 years ago!! But I would be proud of all these Iranian companies, who started to Re-Think Marketing, if they walk what they talk! I do not know how many billboards have been installed in highways since 4 years ago, I just can say too much.This is good, because it represents a progress in Marketing culture, but you can see unknowledgeable Marketers and greedy advertisers in confused companies with uncertain management strategy in all those advertising. One of these companies called "TAK MAKARON". They are the biggest pasta producer in Iran. TAK MAKARON has started when there ...

Moving from Basic DAD Scrum Based LifeCycle to Continues Delivery (Kanban Based) Lifecycle

I was thinking what the title of this blog post could be, I had couple of options to select from and decided to use a title that uses Disciplined Agile (DA 2.0) Lifecycle. Other options for titles were: Moving From Scrum to Kanban From High Performing Scrum Teams to Hyper Performing Kanban  The bottom line is that at some point you may want to move away from Time boxes to a flow of work and service oriented teams and improve performance and throughput without massive and sudden organisational change.  As always, I only share my experience and this may not apply to all situations, context is important.  Another reason that I selected “Moving from Basic DAD Scrum Based LifeCycle to Continues Delivery (Kanban Based) Lifecycle” as the title, was that for many it is a question mark how to navigate through DAD life cycles. and I think this blog post could be one of the ways to navigate.  Context: A Delivery Team started with Type A Scrum with 2 weeks Sprin...
