The Delivery Consultants

Coaching and Mentoring

Our coaching programs are designed to empower individuals at every stage of their career journey.

At the heart of our product delivery philosophy is the synergy of continuous delivery and continuous discovery—a dynamic blend ensuring rapid releases and invaluable feedback loops for pre-implementation product validation.

Tailoring our approach to your product’s life-cycle, we recognize the diverse needs. Crafting a new product involves pinpointing the MVP and strategizing its introduction through methods like private beta testing. Scaling an established product brings unique, yet thrilling challenges. Regardless of the stage, our commitment remains unwavering.

Initiating our journey, we unite the team swiftly through immersive workshops, fostering shared understanding and a collective sense of purpose. This proactive alignment safeguards against later misunderstandings and misaligned expectations.

Customized Activities Encompass:

  1. Evaluating preceding discovery outputs or, in their absence, scrutinizing organizational context and product strategy.
  2. Crafting effective ways of working, encompassing ceremonies and cadence.
  3. Scrutinizing and refining roles and responsibilities.
  4. Ensuring seamless access to essential tools.
  5. Defining team policies, from onboarding to offboarding.

This tailored and strategic approach ensures a harmonized team, equipped to navigate the journey ahead with clarity and purpose.

Transitioning from onboarding, the focus shifts from ‘how’ to ‘what,’ honing in on the team’s aims and objectives. Termed ‘sprint zero,’ this phase, spanning a week or two, is a dedicated learning and planning sprint with no expected software deliverables.

Customized Activities Encompass:

  1. Examining or defining key metrics and aims using methodologies like OKRs.
  2. Scrutinizing or outlining the product backlog through techniques like story mapping.
  3. Prioritizing the product backlog using strategies like RICE.
  4. Sculpting an initial set of user stories to fuel the upcoming sprint.

This tailored approach ensures a seamless transition, setting the stage for focused productivity and goal attainment in subsequent sprints.

With the team’s mission defined and operational frameworks in place, the continuum of continuous delivery and discovery unfolds.

Ongoing Activities Encompass:

  1. Backlog Evolution: Continuous prioritization, shaping, and planning.
  2. Persistent Discovery: Unfolding user research, business analysis, design, prototyping, user testing, data analysis, and evaluation.
  3. Regular Sessions: Engaging in agile ceremonies, stakeholder involvement, show and tells, and user research playbacks.
  4. Engineering Best Practices:
    • Active involvement in user story shaping and defining acceptance criteria.
    • Pair/mob programming for collaborative efficiency.
    • Craftsmanship in clean and clear code.

This distinctive yet unified approach ensures a seamless blend of continuous innovation, user-centric practices, and engineering excellence.
