However, t here are many other practices that can negatively affect the cost of y our projects. Things like quality, context switching, building on top of large amounts of untested code, flow inefficiencies and process fla ws are a few of these hidden costs.\nDuring the session we’ll review all of these challenges.\nWe’ll discuss best practices around WIP g uidelines.\nSuggestions on how to establish WIP Limits, and when/how t o change limits will be offered.\n- We’ll explore the costs of not f ollowing these principles and the effect on individuals, teams and the program.\nFinally, we’ll review some key metrics used to track WIP and help teams improve their flow efficiency.\nAnd thank you to our F ood Sponsor for this meeting Cerner.\nSlides are here . . . I like Sl ides 34 & 35.\n\n- An Agile Haiku -\n\nNew ideas wash over me\nlike ri ver over rocks.\nTumbling them downstream to see.\n- - - - - - - -\n\n \n\nFor more information visit
