Navigating Purpose in the Sea of Business: 🌊 A Tale of the Fisherman, the Goldfish, and the Greedy Sponsor 💼 In the vast ocean of business, where currents of opportunity and challenges ebb and flow, one must navigate with purpose as their guiding star. Join me as we unravel a timeless tale that sheds light on the importance of staying true to our core objectives, even in the face of temptation. 🎣 Our story begins with a humble fisherman, driven by a noble ambition to enhance his craft and provide exceptional value to his customers. Seeking efficiency and excellence, he enlists the guidance of a renowned consultant—the Goldfish. With only three deliverables at their disposal, the fisherman and the Goldfish embark on a journey fueled by purpose. Yet, lurking in the shadows is the fisherman's wife, cast in the role of a greedy project sponsor whose gaze is fixed solely on revenues. 💰 As the fisherman and the Goldfish work tirelessly to fulfill their mission, the sponsor's relentless pursuit of profit threatens to derail their noble quest. Ignoring the essence of purpose, she pushes for extravagant solutions that promise short-term gains but jeopardize the long-term vision. 👩💼 The fisherman's wife's insatiable appetite for revenue leads to misguided decisions—the first iteration brings a new base for the fisherman's rods, a superficial improvement that fails to address the core issue of quality. Undeterred, she demands high-end fishing rods, blinded by the allure of luxury without considering practicality. Frustrated by the sponsor's shortsightedness, the fisherman implores the Goldfish to intervene and restore balance. But even as the Goldfish strives to align their efforts with purpose, the sponsor's influence looms large, clouding judgment and hindering progress. In the end, the fisherman learns a valuable lesson: to remain steadfast in the pursuit of purpose, even in the face of adversity. By staying true to his vision and resisting the allure of short-term gains, he ultimately prevails, delivering value that transcends mere profit. 🚀 As we navigate the turbulent waters of business, let us heed the wisdom of the fisherman and the Goldfish. Let us anchor ourselves in purpose, resisting the siren call of greed and ensuring that every decision serves the greater good. Are you ready to chart a course guided by purpose?  #fridayfunday #psm #psm3 #scrum #product

🌟✨ Once Upon a Scrum: The Wake-Up Call for Sleeping Beauty's Product Ownership ✨🌟 In the enchanted realm of products, services and processes, there lived a Sleeping Beauty, a Product Owner so enamored by the beauty of their creation that they failed to recognize the importance of staying awake to the ever-evolving needs of their kingdom—the stakeholders and customers. 🛌✨ In a deep slumber, the Sleeping Beauty believed that their product's brilliance would naturally attract customers like magic. Little did they know that in the rapidly changing landscape of technology, relying solely on the allure of their creation was a risky bet. They were so lost in the dreams of their product's perfection that they neglected the critical dance of engagement with their customers. 🥀 As time passed, thorns of dissatisfaction grew around the once-majestic product, making it inaccessible to the very people it was meant to serve. Frustrated stakeholders sought alternatives among the vibrant princesses of the product realm—Rapunzel, Jasmine, Mulan, Pocahontas, and Moana—who were not only offering unique features but were also awake and responsive to the needs of their subjects. 🚀 What set these awakened princesses apart? They understood that in a world where the pace of innovation was as swift as a fairy's flight, customers expected quick turnaround. Each princess was quick to adapt, delivering features and improvements at the speed of a magic spell. 👑✨ But, alas! When the Scrum Master, Prince Charming, finally awakened the Sleeping Beauty with a kiss of retrospective realization, the product had aged in a world transformed by new technologies. Some princesses had ascended to the cloud, others had embraced robotics, and a few even showed signs of artificial intelligence. The Sleeping Beauty found themself in a landscape unrecognizable from the one they had fallen asleep in.  🚀 The world evolves, customer expectations shift, and embracing the magic of innovation is essential to stay relevant in the ever-changing market. Awaken to the reality that engaging with your stakeholders and customers is not just a fairytale obligation but a strategic necessity. Embrace the winds of change, agile mindset, leverage fresh technologies, and transform your product into a timeless force in the competitive kingdom of business. 🌐✨ The moral of the story? Don't let your product be a Nokia in a world of smartphones. Stay awake, stay engaged, and let your product's beauty shine with the quick turnaround that customers crave in the ever-evolving landscape of technology and customer needs. 👑🚀 #fridayfunday #psm #psmIII #psm3 #scrum #product

👠 The Scrum Master's Tale: Agile Cinderella and the Perfect Fit 👑 In a distant kingdom plagued by inefficiencies and a yearning to understand citizens' needs, Prince Chief Technology Officer I (CTO I) embarked on a quest for a leader who could transform the operations while swiftly bringing about citizen-centric change. Hosting grand events known as "The Interviews," the Prince sought a match embodying Agile principles for immediate impact without leaving citizens in impatience. The royal invitations, delivered by LinkedIn Job Search pigeons, attracted project managers boasting meticulous planning, cost optimization, and resource management. However, the kingdom, eagerly awaiting transformation, found itself entangled in the impatience born of lengthy planning cycles. In a quaint village, the LinkedIn pigeon dropped an invitation above the dwelling of a girl named Professional Scrum Master™. Engaged in dynamic discussions with Java Developers, Business Analysts, User Experience experts, and other professionals, Professional Scrum Master showcased an approach founded on Agile principles, emphasizing empiricism and collaboration. Intrigued, the Prince extended an invitation to the Professional Scrum Master for an "Agile Transformation Ball." This marked the beginning of a unique partnership, dedicated not only to cost optimization but to a profound understanding of citizens' expectations and delivering tangible change without unnecessary delays. As the Agile Transformation Ball approached, a twist emerged – a shoe that only the Professional Scrum Master could match. This symbolic shoe, representing the perfect fit for the kingdom, echoed the unique qualities and principles she brought to the realm of a true transformation. To everyone's surprise, the Prince and the Professional Scrum Master, armed with transparency, frequent feedback loops, and a commitment to citizen involvement, set out on a journey toward Agile mindset. Embracing Scrum principles such as visibility, self-management, cross-functional collaboration, and delivering value incrementally, their collaborative efforts turned the kingdom into a model of efficiency and responsiveness. And so, they didn't live "happily ever after" in the traditional sense, for every relationship has its highs and lows. However, with a commitment to understanding citizen needs and delivering swift change rooted in Agile principles, the once-struggling kingdom became a sought-after destination for investors. The citizens thrived, and the kingdom flourished, guided by the values of Scrum, and the unique shoe that the Agile Cinderella could wear with ease and help the others to find their best fit. 👠🌟 #fridayfunday #psm #scrum

Let's kick off the first weekend of 2024 with a dose of Agile humor! 📢 😉 Embark on a Journey in "The Kingdom" - Where Dreams Blossom with Agile Magic! 🏰✨by Kate Matwiejczuk inspired by the Scrum Guide 2020 and the Snow White Once upon a time, in the enchanting realm known as "The Kingdom," citizens found themselves overwhelmed in the webs of long-term plans. They dreamt about beautiful houses, green grass and kaleidoscopic vegetables but somehow those goals seemed impossible to reach. Enter the new queen, the magnificent Product Manager 👸🏻, who brought with her the tantalizing promise of agile magic elixirs from a distant land. 🏰   Following a grand wedding ceremony, the👸🏻 ascended the throne with zeal, eager to shape the kingdom into her vision of agility. Alas, her vision of beauty was as peculiar as a talking mirror, and she overlooked consulting her subjects or uncovering the kingdom's culture and true values. 🤔❓   Swiftly, the Product Manager 👸🏻 introduced the novel concept of living in Sprints, leaving everyone befuddled as they stood for 15 minutes every morning. Biweekly fashion extravaganzas showcasing her dresses captivated the kingdom, and at the end of each Sprint, she surveyed her subjects with a help of her advisor called Menti, for whom the only acceptable response was "Yes." 🏃♂️💃📈   Guided by an unhelpful advisor named the Mirror, a truth-shy oracle, matters grew even more complex. One day, the Mirror wove a tale of cross-functional dwarfs championing a wondrous product called "Snowwhite" ❄ Captivated, the Product Manager 👸🏻decided to seize control of this narrative, aiming to make herself even more dazzling and intelligent. Alas, the Mirror and the Dwarfs missed the mark, suggesting injecting something into an apple—an idea as brilliant as a glow-in-the-dark pumpkin. 🍎😬   Enter the savior of our saga, the Scrum Master 👑 —a prince(ss) on a mission to unravel the wonders of Scrum with its values and principles. With wisdom and enlightenment 💡, (s)he shared the importance of listening to the kingdom's people, turning the journey to a happy place into a collaborative adventure. Crucially, (s)he taught them that stand-ups and reviews only made sense when serving inspection and improvement. (S)He coached them to self-manage the gardens and workshops and instead of mindlessly clicking "Yes" on Menti, the kingdom learned to provide thoughtful feedback for everyone's benefits. 🧑💻🤔🚀 Even the Product Manager transformed into a Product Owner, aligning herself with the kingdom's true values. 🌟💼   Guided by the Scrum Master, the now Product Owner led the kingdom into a golden era. Sprints transformed into a dance of efficiency, Menti surveys became platforms for genuine feedback, and fashion shows evolved into showcases of collaborative brilliance. The once-confused Dwarfs seamlessly collaborated, understanding the kingdom's true needs. 🔄🌈 👑🌈 #Agile #ScrumMaster #psm #scrum
