Episode notes
ADVICE

Scale By Decompose And Recombine

  • Scale complex adaptive systems by decomposition and recombination rather than repetition.
  • Hexi breaks methods into smallest coherent components (hex cards) so teams mix Scrum, Kanban, DSDM pieces to create new, context-specific workflows.
ADVICE

Use Hex Cards To Prototype Processes

  • Use tangible hex cards as modular method components to design processes.
  • Teams pick hexes representing methods (e.g., sprint) and reassemble them on plan boards, scanning QR codes to view full method guidance.
INSIGHT

Map Constraints To Find Where Change Works

  • Constraint mapping identifies where change is feasible and where it's futile.
  • Cluster constraints, plot cost-to-change vs time-to-change, and treat top-right as counterfactuals while bottom-left is volatile; operate in the middle zone.
