A game to explain Agile mindset using Kanban

[Yves Hanoulle]

Hi,
In a couple of weeks I want to do a game that explains a lot of the
mindset of agile.
Untill now, I always used the xpgame for that.

The teams that we will be doing this for now are Helpdesk and
infrastructure ( and a small dev team)

Helpdesk and infrastructure wonT estimate and thus an xpgame might not be best.

I think question is different from the previous Kanban game question (
will Reread te answers anyway€
Other suggestions?

Not sure if it was mentioned by you can have a look at the frog
factory game: http://www.aboriginemundi.com/index.php/2010/04/the-frog-factory-a-kanban-experience-game/

Yves,

what aspects of agile mindset are you most keen on showing? Feedback, continuous improvement, customer involvement ... ?

 

I personally like the bottleneck game (http://www.agilecoach.net/coach-tools/bottleneck-game/) as a Kanban exercise but it only shows a few aspects of agile. I'm guessing though that it would be possible to add more aspects to it by making customer involvement more explicit and using retrospectives or Toyota Kata for improvement but I find that I usually get better results with games that are focused on some small learning than trying to hit everything at once with a shotgun approach.

I tried the Pizza game recently and failed (chaos ensued). With the next group I tried the Airplane Factory game and got better results. I suspect this says more about me than anything else.

I always always use the penny game.

Cheers

Hi

I like the proposal of the Frog game as it was invented by a belgium (I did not think of it as I missed the opportunity to play it already twice)

and I have asked Peter if he wants to do it with me.

less money for me, but more learning and paircoaching, wahoo
