Important

1. Build multi-functional team.

3. Define whom it’s important for.
4. Define dependencies.
5. Define success/failure criteria.
6. Slice it.
7. Prepare.
8. Make.
9. Give it to the world.
10. Retrieve & analyze feedback.
11. Keep #6, #7, #8, #9, #10 - cycle short.

Depends (not important)

• Process you use - less is more. underestimated cost of spreading heavyweight process accross users.
• Tools you use - bottom up standardization normally works much better. but would be interesting to make an investigation how/if tools standardization really helps.
• Planning - as lots of work is invested into making a plan, people try to a void changing it to match the reality.
• Various definition and templates - often do not match real work even before being issued.
• Roles descriptions - typically defined for people below high level management.

p.s. Tayloristic organisation defines “not important” as highly important
