The research version of our Capgemini post ‘Out-of-office-agile - Agile basics in a remote world’
Working from home is becoming more and more common nowadays. People increasingly want to work from home. This change has been boosted by the Covid-19 pandemic. Due to the consequences of the pandemic, we were forced to work from home. Mankind ran quickly into solutions to keep the work going but took little time to inspect and adapt. As this situation was expected to be temporary, people didn’t feel the urge, did it superficially or focused only on the obvious. Still the situation and its urgency, might have caused overlooking the basics of working agile and its underlying principles.
As it now turns out not be a temporary thing, we need to have a deeper dive into what’s needed to improve working remote or even from home. In this article we will reflect on remote working using the agile practice of Inspect and Adapt.
The inspection results are based on our own experiences on projects and signals we get from our fellow Agile coaches. To deepen our inspection we choose to use the Agile Manifesto and the Scrum guide.
