Create your own manifesto

About the Book

Agile got a big boost when the agile manifesto was created. 

Many people coming to xpdays have read the first page, some even both pages. Other have helped translating it. 

Yves is studying it at regular intervals to look for inspiration.

Yet it's a historical document. Created in 2002 by 17 white males.

These days when Yves start with a new team, he like to give them 40 or more statements, (and a few empty cards) and let's them create their own list of:

That is, while there is value in the items on 

the right, we value the items on the left more.

In this workshop, we let multiple groups create their own team manifesto and explain it to each other. 

Not as general one, yet one that they as a team think would help them.

Manager agile in the core

Undoubtedly a valuable workshop for software development teams, it requires serious reflection on the Agile manifesto (F ex the OVER part). It can be a powerful tool to expose the tensions between the team and the larger context of that team . Remarkable how the workshop isn't restricted to IT teams. An eye-opener to determine that the importance of certain values is heavily influenced by the specific objective / purpose of a team. All in all a nice perspective tool.

Creating our team's manifesto was a great way to get our hearts and heads in the same direction. It also provided us with a deeper understanding of the Agile manifesto.
