Scaling XP

<p>This week we look at how to Scale XP.</p> <p>We are reading chapter 15 and 16 of Extreme Programming Explained: Embrace Change 2nd edition by Kent Beck.</p> <p>I reference a great interview between Gene Kim and Michael Nygard. There are three of them the first is <a href= "https://itrevolution.com/the-idealcast-episode-8/"><span class= "dark-color-text">Architecture as the Organizing Logic for Components and the Means for their Construction</span></a>.</p> <p>Beck gives his three steps for breaking down a large task into a small task. It's great because it scales to solve any challenge.</p> <ol> <li>Turn the problem into smaller problems</li> <li>Apply simple solutions</li> <li>Apply complex solutions if any problem is left</li> </ol> <p>We also see the importance of having executive sponsorship when starting any initiative.</p> <p>I hope you'll join us as we discuss scaling practices from one to many, this Thursday at 7pm eastern.
