Thank you, Kati, for providing this nice story! And I also like the conclusion of this story I read in the German version: "This cords stand for different versions of "truth". So: Don't cut or bend or tie the truth of a person. Lay aside your own…

Hi Kati, thank you for your compliment for Mark and me to spread out SF in other fields like IT-projectmanagement (which, in its "agile" tradition, is very open for SF)! "Mining for gold" is a wording from Norm Kerth, see http://www.swqual.com/newsl

Hi Hans-Peter, sounds elegant and useful. Can you help me with this: "The idea is that a retrospective is like prospecting for gold" (maybe it's about my language). What I understood, reminded me the small film from Mark I just linked to ning. What…

Ah - thanks, Rodney: The link http://bit.ly/dAtiaV provided by Judy points to the first page ... and "Solution Focus" is mentioned on page three... It didn't see the "next"-link on the first page.... Now I see it this way: Chip Heath and Dan Heath…

Retrospectives as Perspectives

(although the visual pun works better in German).



At last Wednesday's Scrum Breakfast in Zürich, I presented an approach to conducting Retrospectives based on the
Solutions Focus Method (which Adrian Cockburn translated in to the

Delta Method). The idea is that a retrospective is like prospecting for

gold: Building on your strength

The Complex Manifesto

Just now I found this:

The Complex Manifesto for Software Development
http://www.noop.nl/2009/03/the-complex-manifesto.html


which - IMHO - is not useful for SW-Development only but for all kinds of work and projects.

The messages are quite near to SF:

Each Problem Has Multiple Solutions

Lean Development - Synergetic with SF?

In the last months I recognized an increasing popularity of "Lean Development" especially in the area of software development. A closer look will show, that "Agile Development" (which is discussed in SOLWorld since a longer time, see http://www.solworld.org/group/karlstadgroup/forum/topics/solution-focused-agility-in ) is very overlapping with "Lean Development", which has a better… Continue

Yes, I agree very much with your comments - how affirmation is better if its more specific and "grounded". In terms of quality of affirmation I'd say this is about 4 on the scale - but I still like the idea..... and it does seem to work really well in its context!!

Hi Hans-Peter,
Gernot Stoeger told me about the technique of Playground for teamsolutions about which I am curious. He suggested to ask you for more information about this because he'd learned it from you. So, could you tell me what it is? It sounds playful... sounds like something I might like to use..
Thanks in advance,
Coert

hello Hans Peter,
I just read a nice acronym for "agile" on the training-ideas yahoo group. I thought it might interest you!
It's a posting from Vic Williams:

For /me/ a process or project is "Agile" if it exhibits a certain set of what I consider to be "key characteristics" of Agility:

* (A)DAPTIVE: adapting/responding to change rather than predictive/plan-driven

* (G)OAL-VALUE-DRIVEN: focus is on tangible working end-results that
deliver operational value for the business

* (I)TERATIVE/INCREMENTAL: work in short feedback & learning loops at multiple levels of scale (e.g., task/implementation, team/integration, iteration, and release)

* (L)EAN: minimizes waste & intermediate artifacts to increase
throughput and smooth-out flow

* (E)MERGENT behavior: self-organization/regulation emerges out of
simple rules and guidelines for intense collaboration/interaction and
continual reflective improvement (this applies both to [emergent]
designs and the teams that create them)

Modified a bit from what Brad Appleton just emailed at
everydayagile@yahoogroups.com
B.t.w. If you google brad appleton, you find much more about the subject!
cheers,
Liselotte

Hallo, Hans-Peter,
it is very nice to hear from you. I would be pleased to follow your contributions at List, although I prefer the "ning-thing" as I found it to be more personal.
Anyway, I can understad that it could be less confortable due its wideness and not easy logic of following news. I hope it will stettle down in short time.
I think people will join groups related to mainstreem topic to work together, and specific issues will be discussed in blogs. Anyway, the beginnings are allways connected with lot of rumour, so it is not too helpfull to create rules of using... Maybe in future the amount of groups will be reduced spontaneously - simply for the lack of contributors and/or followers, the same way as new group are now created.
As I can see, lot of people joined not only one group, so I suppose they will point out if some discussion will be common to more groups, what could support easier orientation on this site.
Thank you for your offer to arrange a call on e-learning. I am affraid it could be not too convient for you, as for me it is easier to follow written communication then spoken one, anyway it is possible to do. Or, perhaps using of ICQ could help? If you are interested, I'll send you my number.
Best wishes, Kamila

Hallo Hans-Peter,
I was really impressed by your investigations on trivial and non-trivial systems. May I ask you if you are going to start any agility-related discussion or blog?
I'd be pleased to join in, as I am interested in mutual contributions of system theories and the SF approach.
And haven't you heard about anybody experienced in e-learning or e-development? If so, please let me know, I really wonder, how does it work. Thank you.
Best wishes, Kamila

You want to learn more about "Solution Focus"?
You prefer a "step by step" introduction instead to start with reading some
voluminous books?
You would appreciate to have a compete "helicopter view" on SF after the first step already?
