Introduction
“If you do not move in synchronization with time, you will be left behind.” - Sunday Adelaja (Author)
Although we may be measuring progress throughout execution, the best way to truly ensure work remains on track and to verify the program is in alignment is to sync up regularly as a program leadership team on progress.
Decisions to make
- Decide if the program leadership team can offer any help to the teams to remove impediments and improve flow
Context
- Program execution is underway, with teams continuously identifying new dependencies, risks, and impediments to their their ability to deliver
Why we care
- Scrum of scrums (PO sync) meetings are important to drive coordination and synchronize delivery efforts amongst teams
- Scrum of scrums (PO sync) meetings help draw visibility to changes and impediments that could impact other teams
The Atlassian view
- Jira Align offers a meetings function that can help drive the display of information in a scrum of scrums (team of teams) meeting, focusing on objectives
- The program room provides a planning view of features and dependencies across all teams and lends itself well to identifying planning issues
- The dependencies grid and dependencies maps help drill down into dependencies that need attention
- The risk and impediment status and the risk ROAM report visualize open risks and impediments and the status of those items
