Summary:
Our guest this episode is Steve Periera, co-author of Flow Engineering, who in a genuinely insightful session shares with us the background and experiences leading him from value stream mapping to effective approaches that help improve flow efficiency.
Steve identifies the problems that flow engineering solves (more done in less time, with less effort, better quality, improved throughput and maximizing ROI). We get into the details of Steve’s book where he discusses his approach to make reducing process friction easily understandable and accessible and:
- The benefits of leveraging value stream mapping in software development
- The critical role of process visibility in improving flow
- The importance of doing flow engineering to solve flow problems by looking at the entirety of the value delivery process
- The hurdles organizations are experiencing that FE solves
- His approach to make reducing process friction easily understandable and accessible
