Описание: This book draws on a neo-institutional theory to characterize service-oriented manufacturing firms in relation to more familiar organizational forms, such as lean and agile. It sheds light on whether being lean is a prerequisite for agile organizations and whether agile organizations are precursors of service-oriented organizations. The book empirically examines the prevalence of such organizations using representative samples of manufacturing firms in an industrialized country. This approach makes it possible to “zoom in” and determine whether the extent of adoption of digital manufacturing innovations, digital services, and service-oriented business models varies with organizations’ size, industry, product complexity, lot size, type of design process, and type of manufacturing process. In turn, it shows which digital manufacturing innovations, lean practices, and services contribute to leanness-related performance capabilities like quality and costs; agility-related capabilities like fast delivery, flexibility and innovation; and service-oriented capabilities like high service performance and digitalization. In addition, it explores the question of whether lean, agile, and service-oriented performance capabilities contribute to financial performance separately or jointly.

Описание: If You Want to Master Agile Project Management... then This Book is FOR YOU
Are you...
✓ A small business owner?
✓ A junior software developer?
✓ Just interested in the art of project management?
Today, project management isn't just practiced in big companies. Basically, anything you do to solve a particular problem or achieve a particular result can be called a project. You can manage your wedding planning, your kitchen renovation, or your family's domestic chores by using the same methods that a professional project manager would apply.
There are several philosophies of project management.
In classic project management, everything is clearly planned from start to finish before work begins. Agile project management is different: it's more about reacting to change rather than following a plan. Agile methodologies (such as Scrum) are about doing some work in a short sprint, then reviewing the results and planning the next sprint.
Agile project management was originally used in software development, but now it's popular in many fields and literally everyone can benefit from some knowledge of it.
This book will introduce you to agile project management in a structured, beginner-friendly way
Here's what you'll learn:
The surprising benefits of agile project management
How to avoid typical beginner mistakes that can make your first agile project fail
What the phases of an agile project actually look like
How to measure the success of your agile project
And much, much more
Are you ready to get your work projects and your life organized with agile methods?

Описание: This open access book constitutes the research workshops, doctoral symposium and panel summaries presented at the 20th International Conference on Agile Software Development, XP 2019, held in Montreal, QC, Canada, in May 2019.XP is the premier agile software development conference combining research and practice. It is a hybrid forum where agile researchers, academics, practitioners, thought leaders, coaches, and trainers get together to present and discuss their most recent innovations, research results, experiences, concerns, challenges, and trends. Following this history, for both researchers and seasoned practitioners XP 2019 provided an informal environment to network, share, and discover trends in Agile for the next 20 years. Research papers and talks submissions were invited for the three XP 2019 research workshops, namely, agile transformation, autonomous teams, and large scale agile. This book includes 15 related papers. In addition, a summary for each of the four panels at XP 2019 is included.

Описание:
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the field of software processes, covering in particular the following essential topics: software process modelling, software process and lifecycle models, software process management, deployment and governance, and software process improvement (including assessment and measurement). It does not propose any new processes or methods; rather, it introduces students and software engineers to software processes and life cycle models, covering the different types ranging from “classical”, plan-driven via hybrid to agile approaches.
The book is structured as follows: In chapter 1, the fundamentals of the topic are introduced: the basic concepts, a historical overview, and the terminology used. Next, chapter 2 covers the various approaches to modelling software processes and lifecycle models, before chapter 3 discusses the contents of these models, addressing plan-driven, agile and hybrid approaches. The following three chapters address various aspects of using software processes and lifecycle models within organisations, and consider the management of these processes, their assessment and improvement, and the measurement of both software and software processes. Working with software processes normally involves various tools, which are the focus of chapter 7, before a look at current trends in software processes in chapter 8 rounds out the book.
This book is mainly intended for graduate students and practicing professionals. It can be used as a textbook for courses and lectures, for self-study, and as a reference guide. When used as a textbook, it may support courses and lectures on software processes, or be used as complementary literature for more basic courses, such as introductory courses on software engineering or project management. To this end, it includes a wealth of examples and case studies, and each chapter is complemented by exercises that help readers gain a better command of the concepts discussed.

Agile Coaching: Basics of coaching to successfully guide Agile teams
Agile teams guide-with rhyme or reason
Are you new to an agile project and working as a coach?
Do you know the advantages of Agile coaching?
"If you wanted to introduce new methods or processes in a company in the past (and still do in some cases today), you would hire consulting firms that spent a year working on how best to implement the project and then formulating a project plan with milestones and goals. Today, there is often no time for long preliminary planning. Methods and processes are needed where changes can still be made while the project is running. Today, the business environment has become so uncertain that you can hardly plan more than six months in advance. One of the methods where less planning is done in advance and more is done right from the start is the Agile Framework. Essentially, it is a method by which requirements and solutions for products are created during an ongoing process that is characterized by teamwork, self-organization, and the needs of the end user or customer. Agile methods had their origin in software development and are now the standard when it comes to developing new software products. But they can, with small modifications, also be applied in other business areas."
