ROI on agile project management processes
No
real surprises in this paper, but it gives a good overview of the
practice and academic research on ROI on agile projects management.
Niffty twitter visualisation
Cracking
good visualisation of twitter trends based on real-time feed for a
given hash-tag - definitely want to try this one out for myself!
The CIO's priorities
An
interesting and slightly surprising report on CIO priorities in the
German market. If the results are truly reflecting the market dynamic
(and I cannot say that I have seen evidence of it all myself in my
interactions over the last 12 months), then it is definitely a step in
the right direction for the business-driven IT unit!
"Weekly" roundup October-November 2012
I have just noticed that the auto-post is still not working, so here is a manual update of the my "weekly" roundup of interesting links from the previous few weeks:
- Loads of food for thought via mindmaps on all kinds of business, productivity and creativity topics..
- It never ceases to amaze me how much is out there for free if you just look. I had come across the Lean Enterprise Institute before, but had not visited there website until today. From a short review it looks like the free webinars are pretty good - I will be stopping by again..
- Games to improve the business of software development.
- This is a nice (short) presentation on the need for changing the way we manage the quality improvement process - I love the slide that shows the typical ITIL based measures on a scale of "matters to the customer"...
- A nice "eulogy" to Dr Covey from a business analyst.
- A real beauty, this one...
- Content we are willing to pay for? Nice graphic, but I wouldn't pay for it...
- Just spotted this link on a smart colleagues blog. Great article about the "anti"-user journey map. An intuitive approach and probably easier for most people to handle (ie. it is usually easier to work out what is going wrong rather than the fix).
Agile planning for marketing
Agile planning for marketing:
The agile marketing manifesto has been born. I am not convinced that it adds significantly to the original agile manifesto, but the guys behind have definitely got their heads screwed on. This is however a good thoughtful presentation on the need for iterating and learning from failure in the business world along the lines of the Lean Startup movement.

Design Thinking, Agile Enterprise - Only Dead Fish
An interesting post on approaches to avoid processes and rituals inhibiting innovation.
