Delegation Poker Stories
1. Create Design: A new team consists of five developers, none of them with experience in Agile software development. They are going to build a small e- commerce web application. The team has learned about emergent design, and they tell you (their manager) that they want to make their own decisions about software design issues. You have a little experience with design yourself, but not much. What authority level will you give them?
2. Create Architecture: An experienced software team is asked to build a component that monitors and regulates the flow of car traffic with smart traffic lights. There is nothing they can reuse, so they have to start from scratch. What authority level for creating the architecture will you give them now?
3. Choose a New CRM application: Your CRM application has reached its limits and can’t cope anymore with the rapidly evolving business needs. The management appointed you and your team to lead the study of which tool is best suited for the organization. This is a first time you deal with such a project, with global impact on the whole organization. What authority level for doing the study will you give them?
4. Organize Entertainment: A new team consists of a mix of experienced and inexperienced employees. They plan to organize a game night for all employees at the office on a Friday night. There is a fixed budget available. How will you authorize the team to organize this event?
5. Form Teams: A number of experienced agile employees claim that the traditional way of forming teams by management doesn’t work well. They believe they are capable of forming their own teams around the projects that are handed to them. What will you do?
6. Hire Employees: You wish to involve existing team members in the recruitment and hiring of new employees. What authority level will you give them for decisions concerning various job candidates?
7. Design Product: You’re starting a new business unit within your company, and you were able to select a few employees to join you in building and launching an innovative new product. A new logo is needed to represent that product. What authority level will you give the team to design the logo?
8. Design Process: One of your teams has delivered an application with major bugs in it, which cost their customer a lot of money. The team claims that the custom in-house process was to blame, and for their next project they want full authority over their own process, so that they can implement a bigger and stricter process. What will you do?
9. Select Tools: Your experienced agile team wants to throw out the standard development environment which is in use at your company, and they want to switch to another they think is a better match with their project. How will you authorize them?
10. Organize Trips: Some employees get together and plan to organize a day trip to the local zoo for all employees and their families. They ask the company to provide a small fixed budget for tickets and some food. What authority level will you give them?
