During 2012 the Kanban Leadership Retreat in Austria Mayrhofen, Pawel Brodzinski hosted an a hrefhttp://blog.brodzinski.com/2012/06/kanban-behavioral-change.html>open space session dedicated to behavioural changes/a>. The picture above was taken during this session. As Pawel explains in his blog post, we shared stories about emerging patterns from our Kanban experiences./p>p>My goal here is not to cover all those patterns again, which mainly are still a work in progress, but to share a specific story about measuring flow./p>p>In 2010-2011, I was in charge of a software development team located in Paris and Mumbai. We had several activities on our hands: business analysis, development, test and functional support. We were using the Kanban method to guide our collective work and our work improvement. strong>We experienced most of the behavioral changes listed above and our cycle time was reducing/strong>. But we reached a limit: we were depending on a technical support team. They were not focusing on their lead time, they used a tasks management tool focusing on who is responsible for what and managing queues without limit or flow measurements. We were also not satisfied with the way we all were working and coordinating our clients. Thus one day we decided to automatically measure their Cumulative Flow Diagram (CFD) and make it visible. The average lead time was around 10 days for one very simple request./p>p>At the beginning they were ignoring measures, just looking at odd graphs. But one day they had turn-over in their team, and as the new joiners were being trained, and the CFD showed immediately a bottleneck. We raised the point to them, our clients were very dissatisfied and at the end, our clients were also their clients. Without any explanations they immediately understood that the situation was critical, without even taking the time to explain anything, they started to make decisions and take actions. We already had experienced this kind of situation in the past without measuring flow (CFD) and it needed from us hours of negotiations, emails and escalations./p>p>Since that moment the CFD became their own tool and they started to smooth the flow, without having been trained on Kanban and other stuff. We helped them to identify that they had to process 4-5 requests per day to keep the queues under control. It fully changed the way we interacted with them, it was not them against us any more, we all were focusing on flow, and measuring flow, trying to get things done in short lead time./p>p>strong>Lead time and flow were our common focus./strong> Before that we were chasing the team to get things done, after that we were collaborating to better serve the client. Every morning both teams were looking at common metrics, agreeing on the 4-5 tickets to get done. More than that strong>it also developed a serious gaming culture/strong>, where the team was playing at trying to reduce the queue as much as they can. Everyone was very confident with the process, and a high trust in the process emerged. We reduced the average lead time to 1 day!/p>p> /p>p>strong>That’s one hack introduced by Kanban: measure flow and you’ll see better decisions in the process, decreased negotiation and high social capital./strong>/p> div classmr_social_sharing_wrapper> !-- Social Sharing Toolkit v2.2 -->span classmr_social_sharing>span styledisplay: inline-block; width: 51px; height: 21px; overflow: hidden;>div classfb-like data-hrefhttps://bizculturehackers.com/measure-flow-will-increase-trust-and-collaboration/ data-sendfalse data-width51 data-show-facesfalse>/div>/span>/span>span classmr_social_sharing>div classg-plusone data-sizemedium data-annotationnone data-hrefhttps://bizculturehackers.com/measure-flow-will-increase-trust-and-collaboration/>/div>/span>span classmr_social_sharing>script typeIN/Share data-urlhttps://bizculturehackers.com/measure-flow-will-increase-trust-and-collaboration/>/script>/span>span classmr_social_sharing>a hrefhttps://twitter.com/share classtwitter-share-button data-countnone data-urlhttps://bizculturehackers.com/measure-flow-will-increase-trust-and-collaboration/ data-textMeasure Flow Will Increase Trust and Collaboration>/a>/span>span classmr_social_sharing>script typeXING/Share data-counterno_count data-langen data-urlhttps://bizculturehackers.com/measure-flow-will-increase-trust-and-collaboration/ data-button-shaperectangle>/script>/span>span classmr_social_sharing>a relnofollow classlinksalpha_button linksalpha_link href//www.linksalpha.com/social/mobile data-urlhttps://bizculturehackers.com/measure-flow-will-increase-trust-and-collaboration/ data-textMeasure Flow Will Increase Trust and Collaboration data-descI hear more and more stories where Kanban has helped team to develop a continuous improvement culture.

I’ve been in a situation where the conflict between the entrepreneurial and agile mindset of the product manager who was asking for an internal tool to be build by an off-shore subcontractor and the strict purchasing rules of a fixed price project could not be resolved – at least not within a reasonable time frame and effort./p>p>strong>The Hack:/strong> Instead of trying to convince people of the buying department about the benefits of agile contracts we decided to create a fake fix price contract with made up milestones that we draw from an initial version of a product backlog just to please buying department rules. On a personal level the subcontractor, provider of off-shore development and the product manager agreed on an iterative approach including free changes after each iteration within the budget boundaries given by the contract./p>p>strong>The Result:/strong> Both parties knowing that the contract wouldn’t help a lot in case of failure with the project actually helped to create a bond within the team. The safety a contract would normally provide actually was found in the agile approach chosen, co-dependence of product manager and team as well as trust that has been created by colaborating on the product backlog with the whole team involved at the off-shore development site. After several increments shipped and changes to the product backlog the first version was delivered into production two sprints before last milestone given in the contract. The saved two sprints were then used for later maintenance and smaller improvements after the software was used in production for a while./p>p>I would consider the hack close to reda hrefhttp://erronis.nl/2012/11/28/the-blue-zone-where-change-and-leadership-happens/ target_blank> zone/a>.

The result is that the Product Backlog becomes the most important thing everyone in the firm pulls work from. Impediments get raised to the highest level and silo structure being a prominent one can be removed, so that teams can group better around work from the Product Backlog. The hack causes a lot of stress for the middle management and can create also a lot of damage. Another con is that the CEO is driven by shareholders and does not have the capacity to fill the Product Owner role fully.
