Enterprise Dojos: Values, Principles, and Cultural Perspective
•
0 likes•221 views
When we talk about dojos there’s a tendency to focus on the mechanical aspects of the model — the workflow, method, short iterations, and immersive learning. Perhaps more important is understanding what models and principles actually make the dojo innovative and successful. In this webinar, our dojo experts will unpack the foundations of the dojo — the underlying models that make it work, the principles that guide our behaviors and choices, and how dojos help shift cultures from fixating on delivery to leveraging learning. You will learn about: - Theories and research that make the dojo model work: deliberate practice, spaced repetition, etc. - What are the values and principles that are common to successful dojos - How dojos help shift an organization from a culture of delivery to a culture of learning

- 18. BALANCING LOOP Here we have a vicious cycle common in software development represented as a Causal Loop Diagram. As we deliver faster, we may take shortcuts leading to mounting complexity in our codebase. As complexity increases, our delivery speed decreases. Delivery Speed System Complexity
- 19. REINFORCEMENT & DELAY Delivery Speed Dojo Challenge System Complexity A team tries new strategies in their dojo challenge: strategies aimed at leveling skills. As teams master new skills and become more balanced, system complexity goes down. New features are clean, fit, and well thought out -- in the spirit of strategic programming. Delivery accelerates.
