What matters is customer outcomes. Too much energy spent on how. Sprint Planning, Retros, Cycle Time, velocity, number of weeks per sprints etc. All bollocks. The number of hours I’ve spent in quarterly/ halve planning for the plan to be derailed 2 weeks in is staggering. It’s all busy work.

We should be minimising the time between ideation and having something in front of the customer. Planning in quarterly or halves contradicts this premise.

Let the business define the goals for the quarter “release product X”, “increase Y” and let the teams figure out how to achieve that but not 6 months in advance. Plan, ideate, implement should take no longer than 2 weeks. Allows teams to learn and pivot when appropriate.
