EXPERIMENT.ADAPT. SUCCEED.

Are you being pushed with more tasks than you can finish? Are you being assigned new work as soon as it arrives, regardless of how busy you already are, and it's piling up? You are working in a push system! In this video, Rafa Sabbagh explores how pull systems outperform traditional push systems. Through a detailed analysis of the stages of an example workflow, Rafa identifies the pitfalls of push systems, such as bottlenecks (excess work) and starvation (lack of work), and illustrates how implementing WIP limits (the maximum number of work items that can be on a stage/set of stages) in a pull system can help solve these problems. Inspired by the Kanban method and the Toyota Production System, he provides a practical view for achieving a continuous flow of work.

"From simple to simple, we can build the complex. But only the sufficient and necessary." In this video, Rafa Sabbagh explains how developing our product increment after increment enables risk reduction, deciding when to deliver, increased efficiency and effectiveness, improved stakeholder management, and adding complexity to our product only as needed, thus avoiding waste.

In this video, Rafa Sabbagh explains the concept of continuous planning. Using his insightful "Horizon Analogy," Rafa explains how to gradually refine and adapt your plan as you develop your product and move closer to what will be done next. Discover how to avoid wishful thinking and fantastical predictions in your planning, describing only what can be seen with the appropriate level of detail.
