  • Uncut footage of me helping a team discover lean principles of
    Kaizen (small change) and
    KaiKaku (big change)
    in a quick, safe, abstract way before embarking on their new organisational role. Also just a great, fun team-building game that raises team-awareness and self-awareness, and breaks the ice.

    Making mistakes and learning via quick, abstracted games is a lot more efficient than the alternative, which is to assume everyone knows what they're doing, plod on for years and realise at the end it doesn't meet user needs, is late, overblown with unnecessary features, or just not delivered at all. And if it's in an organisation with critical frontline staff and services, all the less money to put toward that.

    Is that a university of Birmingham certificate behind you? Trying to convert the game to remote - any ideas?

      Yes, well spotted 93-96 Commerce Department 😂
      Remote Flow? Interesting!!!
      Only remote game I've played is skribbl.io
      Worked well, we had a Google hangout and played this as an ice-breaker.
      For flow? Maybe there's an online multiuser drawing tool and you could have a production flow of stickman heads, body, legs, face details. And run the 'coin game' via that. Easy to demo flow that way.

    Hey ! I'm about to do this game in an Agile Methodology introduction, i didn't quiet understand what you did wrong as an organizer and I would like to understand what it was since I don't want to mess it up. Appreciate your response. Have a good one and great videos!

      And when you say "Each ball must have air-time", is it legal to pass it through the air once and then hand by hand every time until it gets returned?

      @@PatoMPlay Hehe, rules are there to be bent and broken right? or deal with those people with severe punishments... all depends on company culture doesn't it? Maybe you can map that to it as an exercise?

      Well I told them to really shake it up, and instead of small, incremental improvements (Kaizen) I told them they could triple their total by rethinking it entirely (Kaikaku) and then proceeded to step in and get involved and didn't really fully take control and implement what I'd seen but not done myself (the 'ball waterfall' and I wasn't clear on the entry/exit of the system) didn't leave them to it, and so they messed up. I messed up. It happens, will test out the 'circle' idea prior to the next time I run it.

      The Agile Coach Ohhhh I see. I was like... why are there two people entering the ball and running around? makes no sense, but well. Thank you very much for your response, I hope we can perform it smoothly. If we record it and you want to see it, I’ll let you know. Have a good day !

    Any ideas for space saving, cheap and widely accessible alternative to a large amount of relatively big balls?

    But they passed it to neighbors at at least two points in their 'throw'-line in the first three iterations.

    They are not respecting the rules. The girl in purple and the black guy can not touch the ball one after the other. 😊
